      Nice! Bigger question was how his better half fared as a spectator. That was the hard part. Did she text you anything?

        Are we there, yet?

          I see they show runners' splits every 5k and at the half mark.  Why do they also show a 20 mile and 21 mile split, in between the 30k and 35k splits?

           

          I miss the traditional checkpoints at the railroad stations in each town the course passes through even though that meant really odd splits.

           2024 Races:

                03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles

                05/11 - D3 50K
                05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour

                06/17 - 6 Days in the Dome 12-Hour.

            I wore my "winter" running jacket in that monsoon Saturday. It was a much better choice than the running jacket I own that is specifically for rain, which feels likea sauna.

             

            You ever see Des around town? I think she lives in Rochester Hills?

              I ran past her in the opposite direction one weekday morning at Stoney a couple of years ago. Although I'm sure it seemed to her that I was standing still. lol She's tiny.

                        Nice work out there in some really challenging conditions. Looks like 2015 with extra wind added in for good measure...brrr.

                        Train smart ... race smarter.

                          Holy smokes, she's fast!  Congratulations, Blue!  That's an amazing time any day, but especially so in such horrible conditions!

                            Awesome job, Blue!!!!!

                             

                            Did anyone track Ginny?

                             

                            What an exciting morning! Did anyone hear what happened to Rupp??

                              Ginny seems to be going along fine, though she has no splits for 5k, 10k, 30k, and 20 miles.  I'm guessing the weather is playing havoc with the timing mats.  She crossed 35k at 2:38, moving at a 9:25 pace.

                              5k 23:48.45 (3/22); 4M 31:26 (2/22); 5M 38:55 (11/23); 10k 49:24 (10/22); 
                              10M 1:29:33 (2/24); Half 1:48:32 (10/22); Marathon 4:29:58 (11/23)

                              Upcoming races: Clinton Country Run 15k, 4/27; Spring Distance Classic 5k, 4/28
