Very good run in the rain and the park today! At least I have a preview of what the weather and temps will be like if it does indeed run this Sunday. I even took my camera along on the run to try out using it with a lanyard and my vest pocket; it worked very well.

Other News: Last night I volunteered with other Shadow Chasers to help stuff the race day goody bags. I had no idea so much was involved in putting those things together. I read there were at least (70) volunteers there during the course of the event. I can believe it: There was a shoulder-to-shoulder ring of volunteers all around the tables collating the paperwork and passing it down the line to go into the bags. That took a pretty long time, and I didn't show up till after 6:00PM. I was glad to see there was still pizza left at the end of the night. I wasn't aware food and drinks were being provided, but it's definitely something to look forward to at future volunteer events.
-Lancer!!
