I am running the Half. Saturday night works well for me - it can be my welcome home party, since I should be getting home sometime on June 2nd ;)


Any particular time goal for you half C?

Um, considering the past three weeks have been handing over a job, travelling and settling back in at home with less than stellar training - what ever speed you want to run?

Let me know if you plan on stopping by so I can pick up some super easy grub depending on numbers. Bring your own booze...

It will be an early night since many of us are running the following am.

I'm picking up bibs tomorrow for my relay team, and for Bingerunner, and Marg I imagine. I work on campus so it's super easy for me to pick up the kits. If anyone needs me to pick one up for them, let me know!
