Two Mile Race on Friday

Is anyone running this (as a workout)? The two mile is traditionally the main event (9:20s will win). I'd go to watch/time/cheer if any GRCers were thinking of heading over there.

I will not be racing the two mile... It kills me because I would like to see what I could do but I am doing a workout as part of my alumni race at my high school tomorrow evening...

Hello all, I post this under Dirks name, but I'm actually a friend visiting from the Netherlands (my name is Paul Zwama, some of you I have met last year). I am willing to do some pace making if anyone wants to get a fast race going... Just let me know (559 970 7114), Ill be here.
Also, is anybody down for a long run starting at Rock Creek Park Sunday? I plan to go 15 miles at any given pace. I know some of you and think it would be nice to partner up while Dirk will be out of town again.
