10 miles in Eugene, from the hotel to Costco and around the local neighborhoods. Last night was a lot of fun watching the races @ Hayward. Josh McAdams advanced in the steeple, Flannigan dominated the women's 10k and Galen Rupp did the same in the men's 10k (after ditching his allergy mask around lap 14--google the photo, it was pretty interesting). I actually bumped into Adam Goucher and his young son as I rounded a corner, right after Kara took 2nd in the 10k. I told him congrats on his wife's finish (as I tried not to sound like a complete weirdo) and then a few moments later Adam handed their son to Kara so she could carry him around the track on her top-3 victory lap. Earlier in the day I was an arms reach away from Tyson Gay and Justin Gatlin. Only in track can the common man literally rub shoulders with the worlds best. Very cool.
