Jim Jordan is in there too for the 50-54 men. 23rd I think.

How many people do they ran for 19 & under. It seems like everybody I know made that category. On another note, I am pretty sure that Dan should is better than at least 15 of the guys ahead of him. I can't wait until this summer when he'll finally get the chance to race. No more XC season!!!

I guess that is one of the benefits of running where it is flat. It makes you wonder about the validity of the courses that some people race on. Some of the people that are ranked have run in the same races as several of us and we have done quite well against them head-to-head.

Here is the link for those interested: www.runwashington.com/other/rankMenSum08.htmlAs for me getting the chance to race, I think that the vomit sitting somewhere in Big Run State Park is arguing that I raced pretty hard a few times this summer. Furthermore, the cooked-carrot vomit sitting on the Depot Trail is evidence that we TRAINED even harder this summer. Maybe that is why I am finally running some PR's. On the whole, though, I agree. It will be fun to have a no-obligation summer. I think my Mom and Grandma will like knowing that I can "run hard" every time I go to a race rather than listening to me explain why I can't because I'm "not allowed."

Most importantly, maybe we can teach you a few things this summer about what not to eat before a run!
