A few things:
1) Tomorrow Jen and I travel to Washington/Oregon. We’ll be staying with her family for a few days, doing the Seattle tourist thing, Ranier, St Helens, then heading to Oregon for a few things and a drive up the coast etc etc. I hope sleep is involved, I’m beat.
2) Steve’s 5K at USATF Outdoor Nationals is gonna be my highlight. He’s currently declared 20th out of about 36 entries…it’s actually worst case scenario for him. By his estimation, if there were only 32 entries, they would shove it into one heat. If there were more than 40, he’d be in the faster heat. As it stands, he’ll likely be in the slow heat. His best chance is to have a bunch of guys scratch, which is actually a pretty decent possibility. If not, he’s going to be in it to win it on that second heat.
3) Jen and I signed ourselves up to Westminster Hall in Baltimore. Whenever you can have a wedding at Edgar Allen Poe’s grave site, you’ve got to pull the trigger. It’s gonna be neat, people will remember it at least.
I’m not yet retired, one day I’ll post something useful again.
