Great Run, Anthony.
I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you at the finish.
You were right on Skip's back door.
It was a great day of running.
That's amazing your feet survived so well.
Thanks for the report.

Wow, that is amazing. It sounds like everything was just clicking. Those split times are incredible! It's so awesome when the last lap isn't the slowest, eh?

Oh, and your post-race feet look great.

Congrats! biggrin.gif

Jessee - yeah, sorry we didn't get to meet up. Next time.

Mark - It was one of those days where everything went right from start to finish. I was so surprised that the last lap wasn't slower. The feet - Drymax Socks...working wonders for me so far.

Eruu - Thanks !

Anthony:

great race, great report. it was nice to run a lap with you before you systematically pulled away from me on lap #4. I had ideas of catching back up until i had to make a pit stop at AS #2, and that was that. I'm glad I called your finish time. You looked so strong early that I thought you would hold up for the long haul. Grest job, see you at the next one.

I enjoyed meeting you and talking. It was funny (i probably shouldn't confess this to the list) to meet another lawyer married to a lawyer.

See you down the road.

It's great to hear so many people did well. I loved the race report and videos. You ran a great race, and (more importantly) went into it superbly trained and prepared.

It's nice to see all the training pay off ....
