I was  bit overdressed. Usually, this race is freezing, but today the weather was great. This was the fastest that I have ran in over a year. I was able to maintain a sub 8 pace for the entire race. It felt good to run somewhat fast again. There was a good turnout for the race, about 2000 people.

Great job Twinkies!

Rye - Twinkies asked me to tell you that he's not talking to you.

Hey Twinkies- Where have you been? Hope you're not injured again.

Hey guys. Sorry for the absence. I have been away on business travel with limited internet and email access. I was in Cairo, Egypt and Masirah, Oman.
