FBM: You broke 19:00?? Superior!! Congrats! It was probably because *I* called out to you "Stay strong" on the course, but naturally, all you can remember is Timmy. What-EV-er! And please, I broke 19:00 too. Oh heck yeah I did! I think I had just made the turn heading toward the 2nd mile marker when I did it--but you don't see me all jumping up and down about it.
But let's forget about me for just a single nano-moment: wonderful job on a day that was about 47 degrees warmer than last year's race. You did good, ol' man.
Also, I received a Very Important Public Service Health Tip at the race today from Randy Loftis: Randy claims that while gelatin products can indeed strenghten one's finger and toe nails, they are not otherwise good for people in large quantities, such as, say, an above-ground swimming pool filled with strawberry/banana flavored gelatin. Possible side-effects include allergic reactions/rashes; impaired judgment and loss of reason; attacks of insomnia, pleurisy, jungle fever and vertigo; baying at the moon; chasing the neighbor's cat; and can also leave stubborn stains on clothing that commercial grade detergents cannot always remove in cold water washes.
Thanks, Randy! And remember: Lurking on the Forum doesn't mean you're safe! 8 )
