Near real-time athlete tracking... (Read 531 times)

This whole concept is pure evil. Here I am, waiting for my wife to get home so I can jog over to the start of a 5K at noon and while I'm waiting I am "watching" two friends run the Marine Corps Marathon, just as I "watched" my sister run Chicago last weekend. I can't tell if I'm nervous for them, or for the race I'm running today. And when I have actually run big marathons, I alwasy hated the whole concept of online tracking--I always ignored those emails from friends saying, "what's your bib #?" Figuring if they couldn't figure how to find that out they didn't deserve to watch my crash and burn.

You really are a nutjob you know. You dug up a thread from 2006? Do you have to even search or can you just conjure these things up from the depths of the trenternet?
