    Comments: This was a charity run with a slight twist. The number of charity runs in this area has
    grown tremendously - almost to the point where they are working against each other. The RITA
    Foundation got with 1st Place Sports to do an event where the runners could designate which charity
    would get their support. This support included the entrance fee and any sponsorship money that the
    runners raised. Nice idea. To top it off, the top three female and top three male runners got cash.

    Had a grumpy night's sleep. Ate a grumpy breakfast. Drove through traffic to get downtown. Had a few
    problems with race bibs and charity organization. Did a grumpy run. Crossed the finish line is what
    kind of mood? NO, GROUCHY!

    Here's the splits.

    Distance Time MHR AHR to start :10 75 70 1 8:59 147 137 2 9:10 151 146 3 9:16 157 148 .1 :56 158 155

    Now, bugger off. Layne

    As my friends like to say, "I was grumpy, and when I get grumpy I get grouchy."

    Thanks for the report, short tho' it be.

    I trust your good humor has returned. Any Turkey Trot races on the schedule?

    :-) True. Shirley MacLaine had a good line in Steel Magnolias - I'm not
    crazy, I've just been in a very bad mood for XX years.

    LOL. Yeah, thanks. I was back to "usual" that afternoon. There were a lot of the local charity folks
    there so we got to spend some time socializing. Normally we just see each other at meetings where we
    don't have time to just chat.

    You betcha (Turkey races). We've got a very tasty half marathon. How about you? I'd think that DFW
    would have a selection. Of course, with your new speed, you could do several. :-)

    Thanks, Layne

    I could! There's a 10K/5K here and a 4-mile or something in Dallas; the 10K is 45 minutes after the
    5K so I could run both -- in fact some folks do. Not me tho'.
