First, Dane, I assume you are hosting some sort of DANE WE WISH YOU WELL at the Washington Convention Center. When?
As for runs, I would like to do a Progression run this sat of approximately 11 miles. Meet at the G-town store at 9:00AM. Old Man Earnst. this run us for you buddy. Its time for you to stop talking and take a minute off of your 10K.
Second, my friend Susannah K. is one of the best female distance runners around. She is running the trials in Boston for the marathon and wants to run 2:35. I am trying to assist her by getting myself and others to run with her and make her faster. I need help from some of you all. This Sun I would like to run out at Difficult Run in Great Falls and do a 19 miler at between 6:40-6:20 pace with maybe a few faster miles thrown in at the end. Its great running out there. I need help! Who wants to contribute? After, we can go get waffles or pancakes at this Diner in Reston.
So far I have Moeser and this guy Chris Bain.
Also, this Thursday Klim and I want to get to know all of you real real well. Therefore, we are having a Happy Hr at the Mayflower Hotel beginning at 7:00ish in the eve. For those that do not know, Klim spent the first 4 years of his life in DC at this place. He knows the bartenders by name and there is a picture of him with Ted Kennedy surrounded by beautiful women in a moment of weakness on the wall. Anyway, they serve good drinks and it should be fun.
Be prepared to drop a nickel or two as the place is not cheap. They do provide outstanding free mixed nuts, though.

What about the party at your place?
ReplyDeleteTo combat the pricey drinks, one can eat the free appetizers they have. Yes, I said free. Bets to get there a bit before 7 as they start to cart away the food around this time.
ReplyDeleteI've seen (and eaten) chicken wings and carved roast beef with rolls. Not bad.
It was here that I shared a good laugh about a year ago with former SNLer Colin Quinn.
Damnit; Missing all the fun. Don't get back to town until Friday night and can't run on Saturday. Leaving Sunday again. Blows...
ReplyDeletechristine and I will be at the mayflower. I'm pretty sure I can join for the long run... but I'm not sure if 19 is quite right for me yet... perhaps 16/17... is this possible up there?
ReplyDeleteI should be game for the Sunday run. I hear that Difficult Run lives up to its name.
ReplyDeleteyou guys are awesome. the run can be a combination of hills and flats and we can go between 15-18 miles. the more runners the merrier the run. if people need to carpool or need directions, just post to the blog.
ReplyDeleteI won't be around. The "address" is in the map further down on the blog.
ReplyDeleteSomeone asked me about attire for the Mayflower and I feel like I should expand on that. I wouldn't wear red shorts or a clownsuit and you should look like you didn't just come crawling out of the sewer. If you wear jeans, I would wear a nice shirt.
ReplyDeleteI'll be there... I've heard the martinis are legendary.
