Funny write-up, enjoy your attitude, and love your header picture. Wanted to know if I could have your permission to use 3 of your photos in my write-up, since I didn't feel like schlepping my camera with me (if I don't hear from you in a day or two, I'll just go ahead, credit always given).

It sounds like you had a great time and I had a great time cheering for you and the other McNutty runners that day. I loved reading your report, it gave me the giggles this morning. :-)<br /><br />As someone who has a long background running road races, these trail races are becoming more and more appealing to me and you mention a lot of the reasons why in your report. <br /><br />Thanks again for the great read and pictures!<br /><br />-KellyKelly Gaineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08691171229118535278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1283731952214517381.post-43997756472362729412009-04-14T08:39:00.000-05:002009-04-14T08:39:00.000-05:00Wait, no way, that was you, Alan??

From the pics it looked like the weather conditions were great for the 50 milers - if you had started on Friday, you wouldn't have missed all the water toboganning fun! ;)<br /><br />That water is most welcome during the daytime. I had so much fun running in it while the sun was out that I'd sing cadence!<br /><br />Wherever you end up next, I have no doubt you will be tearin' it up and having a great time and I wish you the best. Hope to meet you along the Lakeshore path this summer with the Chicago UR Group...(but go easy on me, now - the only serious case of the runs I get these days is indoors and while I'm sittin' down) ;)<br /><br />Happy trails,<br /><br />Connie :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1283731952214517381.post-70611241045049126342009-04-14T06:59:00.000-05:002009-04-14T06:59:00.000-05:00Paige, well done this weekend.

Did you even realize it was me you were talking to on the road at LBL before the trails?<br />I wound up running 'only 50' but chalked up some more experience, especially night running. <br />I was on my own again and envy you for having friends with you. I must better organize the Kentucky runners. <br />Cheers, AlanAlan Jaqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512134861781906658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1283731952214517381.post-76854983570355341202009-04-14T01:28:00.000-05:002009-04-14T01:28:00.000-05:00Congratulations!
