1:02:53 (31:44/31:08). Very humid today -- no monsoons, this is kind of like a cold winter day without snow (I always thought I got cheated, since if it is going to be cold it might as well snow). I am pretty overwhelmed right now. I am sort of stuck with respect to a project I am working on ... I have been working on it for a few days now and need to get it finished by tomorrow. I am hoping the solution (mathematical) is right around the corner. I am sure my students will too, as it is taking away from my preparation time for my lectures next week! Track shorts: Sonya Richards ran a fabulous race last night to win gold in the 400 meters. Yesterday also was the qualifying rounds for the 200m, 100m hurdles and 400m hurdles ... very fun. The men's 3000m steeple finals were very very entertaining. The winner, Ezekiel Kemboi was hysterical after his 8:00 win. I am telling you, he is one skinny dude (maybe 110 lbs?) - all the Kenyan distance guys are, but these steeplechase guys are really skinny. Nice performance by the Frenchman Bob Tahri who beat Paul Koech with a lean at the line.
