  1. Am going to be running in the tough guy race in January, and have
    successfully talked 3 friends into doing it as well. None of us really
    know what we've let ourselves in for, other than what is on the tough
    guy web site. Does anyone have any information on what the race
    actually involves.

    And you, sir, are a bloody genius, putting a comma in your sentence. It
    is not necessary.

    Perhaps, he was going for the dramatic, pause. ;-)

    please pass on the info you have, as for being idiots...... well there
    may well be an element of truth in that. (there willl be a large
    amount of money raised for a good cause tho)

    errr... I have no idea what you're talking about. I wasn't following
    the thread in the slightest. I was skimming through the new posts
    and onemarathon's was one of them. My reply to him had nothing to
    do with any race.

    It's called "a dramatic pause", although it works best in real conversation.

    Looks like poor grammar, though. I'd go with either a dash or a few
    dots....

    some time btw)

    I'm interested too. The overuse and abuse of ellipses are a common
    sign on r.s.d. (disc) because a certain Mike Gerics uses them like
    they are going out of style...

    inquiring minds want to know... = )
