Hey Rooster. Glad to see the VFF's are working out for you.
It turns out I'll be in Logan to pick up my packet Friday Eve. (staying at Paul Peterson's house, Smithfiled). So I'll know my bib#. I won't have a computer with me though, so I don't know how to get that info to you. I do know I'll be wearing a dark gray t, black shorts, yellow shoes, either eyeglasses or sunglasses, and I'm currently sporting a goatee and a short beard. If you're still hanging out by the time I finish (3:45 is the goal), it would be great if you kicked my butt across the finish line.

JD, sounds good. you are always welcome to stay at my place too for local races if the Paul hotel is full. Maybe I will see you at the packet pickup too, I usually show up just for fun. And Hotel Paul has computer access so you can email me with your bib number.
I may run in with Cody in which case I will probably be completely trashed on Saturday. I will see if he really wants me to, he may just be joking as it is kind of stupid to think an old guy like me could pace a young guy like him in. But if I hobble him when I meet him I could do it, maybe I will slip him some ribs and corn dogs and a big blizzard shake to eat.. will let you know....

Wow, that is a great workout! And in five fingers, no less! Nice.

Hotel Paul has one desktop, two laptops, and streaming wifi.

Thanks Nan! and good luck on Saturday, now that I know your bib number, courtesy of Jon's post of the elite women, I will watch for you to come in at the finish! I wish I was running with this exciting field, hopefully I will be in shape for next year.
