Who ya got? Emma Bates out strong at the start, leading the pros.

10 runners from my local crew are running it. Looking forward to tracking them all morning.

My friend's wife, who is running it on her birthday.

Pete better show up with quality cake and champagne after she finishes.

Weather is horrible for runners and the police were being jerks about drinking. Lot of runners struggling, even a lot of qualifiers were walking.

Yeah, sunny and 72 is way too warm for 26.2. Lots of my group was commenting about how hard it was.
