Anyone want to hook up?

Bcdon has already promised he'll meet up - looking forward to it!

I'm there to run Nationals in cross country running for Masters. Last year I was 6th, let's see if I can match that again this year.

Have a great time! I love that area. I will be in my home of origin (Tacoma/Gig Harbor) during a similar time period, so we will be a bit closer to each other. Have a good trip and good run!

Had a good time seeing bcdon! He took me to a super good Japanese restaurant.

The race went okay, but extremely muddy and wet. I am really poor at running in these conditions, so a 7th place overall I will take. I was hoping for top 5, but I was pretty far away time-wise from that, anyway.

Running season is now OVER! Time for a break... ;)

It was great seeing you too. 7th place is awesome considering the rain was horrible. Too bad the race wasn't today because it is nice an sunny. Go figure, eh? ;-)

Still a respectable finish amigo. Was it cold enough to run in full pants etc? How big was the field?

75 runners in the field, I ran in shorts and singlet... in retrospect, I should have wore more clothes - I was a frozen stick by the time I finished.

Hypothermia is not your friend. Glad to hear you had a memorable experience at least. What did you eat at the Jap restaurant?

That's great that you guys got to hang out again! Congrats on your very respectable finish, Robert!

Don, the longer you live in Canada, the more you are starting to look like Red Green...all you need is the hat and suspenders. ;)
