Rose, hilarious RR and great race girl! I'm still laughing about all the car troubles Big grin

In about 10 years or so, R.S. will laugh too, (maybe). ..and a race, soft pretzels and beer all before 10:00 a.m. sounds like an excellent morning to me Wink

Glad you had so much fun. arf

Great RR! Nice running! The blues....Ray can play the blues? I love the blues. But the blues have got to be at least Half Empty!!

Skinny, maybe, but I don't know about sober--drinking beer at 10am after a long run doesn't sound like a recipe for sobriety. Wink

very interesting day, with a good race thrown in for good measure! Kevin

Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

great job and fantastic report, Rose/Barb! I can see you know how to appreciate fine things like...people and events and ignore meaningless things like 'flat tires'... Smile

Your glass will always be more than half full.

Heh heh. Lou. I mixed up my languages when I took my Running Ahead name... my name should be LaVidaDulce (Spanish) or LaDolceVita (Italian) I messed up. I think we should meet at that café some time! Hey, everyone, thanks again for your support here. RA rawks!

This is a report to be savored.... Smile

Yes, I do believe I have a bobble-head, but I suspect I had it long before now... Big grin

What fun, Rose, and great job keeping the bright side of the little hand-ups...great race and report!

Great report Rosie! I enjoyed every word! So suspenseful and a very nice ending! Steve

Fabulous report and I laughed, grinned, cheered---and worried---I drive a blue Honda Civic with a runnergirl sticker on it----it's a 2006 though. I have been so far behind in reading race reports and saved this one for when I had time---I am so glad. Nice running and it's clear you had a great time. Very cool about rbbmoose and his band too. A fine report indeed. CNYrunner/Karin

Thanks for this fun report. Your glass getting fuller by the "event" says much about you and your personality. Thanks for sharing that with us. You never will have a bad race, simply because in your world they don't exist. This is meant as a compliment. I am glad all of you had such a great day. Thanks again for this report. Congratulations!! Joey
