I'll be there... and I'll ride your bike the last 2 miles so you can run... ok, not really, but it will be good to have you and logan along to make us remember how much easier riding the bike would be!

Weather update for you interested folks... This morning as we finished our run on the Painter's course (finishing at 9:00AM - race start time), it was a balmy 28 degrees. Actually pretty nice. The river always makes it a little colder than the predicted temp so plan for that. And it has warmed up nicely throughout the day.

Marion - Last year I brought lots of types of clothes because for a race, a couple of degrees can change what you want to wear. The decision came down to the last couple of minutes before jumping in the car, and if in doubt, bring options in the car so you can change your mind after warming up. Some people ended up wearing shorts, some pants, I wore my thinnest (also geekiest and now thrown away) tights under shorts, one long sleeve and gloves, which I tossed at 6 miles

Marion, Today, Friday it is 34 @ 9am the high is supposed to be 58 today and Saturday. It is projected to be 44 @ 11am I would mention that at the start it could be a bit cooler than 34 because it is close to the river and that ussually drops a few degrees. As you head out the sun will be at your back and right side. After a little over a mile you turn and get sun more on your front and side for a 1/2 mile or so then another 1/4 at your back. After that the course seems to warm up. There is a spot aroun mile 5-6 that you will hit some shade and it gets cooler but that is only 1/4 or so mile long. I ran the that first 6 miles of the course yesterday it was very pleasant, just a little cool to start off but not bad and this morning it is about 3 degrees warmer than it was yesterday at this time. Good luck to you in the race!

I'm looking for results posted online, but I can only find last year's results on runnercard. Does anyone know where the online results are located?

Thanks, Scott. The online results look a little better than the paper results I saw initially after the race.
