Pushed Myler around the B-Hills loop. It was a chilly 46F this morning. Actually it was kind of fun to have a good chill in the air. I'm guessing it was in the 30's up at the start of the marathon course. The forecast for Saturday is windy... You know how I feel about wind.

Hoping for a tailwind, but we've ran into the wind numerous times going down that route. Might be a little chilly at the start, doesn't look like any rain so that is good. I'm still debating on wearing the sunglasses or not?

I'm assuming you enjoy being a wind-block.

Ill pretend that you didnt say the "wind" word. I hate wind.

That's the kicker Paul... If I'm pacing a group I can't tuck in and draft... or can I?

From Jon on Thu, Oct 01, 2009 at 14:12:27 from 138.64.2.76

Clyde, at 3 hour pace you won't need to tuck in. You'll be so energetic and eager to help your crew.

From Jon on Thu, Oct 01, 2009 at 14:13:11 from 138.64.2.76

But if you do tuck in, don't do it behind Walter. He's way too skinny to make a difference.

Up at the course this morning. friday and there was a tail wind....a cold tailwind. It actually felt very good when running with it. Going against it was frigid. So if there is going to be wind hope that it is the way this morning was...at our backs!

Good luck guys!

Scott last year I ran it Friday morning and we had a tailwind... then on Saturday there was a headwind from HELL... so you never know.

From Paul on Fri, Oct 02, 2009 at 09:27:07 from 174.23.80.242

...and two years ago, there was a nasty headwind on Friday, and then a sweet tailwind on Saturday.

From Jon on Fri, Oct 02, 2009 at 09:35:07 from 138.64.2.76

Right now the weatherman is saying wind from the South at 19 mph tomorrow. Hope he's wrong. At least it isn't supposed to rain...
