Still running (on empty)

Hi gang, just a quick update, I ran in, and completed, the boilermaker last weekend! I still can't believe it. The boilermaker, for those of you who don't know, is a 15k (9.3 mile) race through Utica. I ran the race in 1hr 34min, not bad for this old guy. I think the most fun of it all was watching all the people! there were 11,000 runners and just about as many spectators. They just shut the city down and have a really good time cheering on the runners, what a great time! I didn't even notice that I was in a race until about the 6th mile! I was just another red neck running down the streets of the big city, what a great time.
Thanks to my little brother for the pic, I looked in several places with no luck. Talk about technology, we were all wearing small chips on our sneakers to keep track of our real time. There were so many people, that after the starting gun (cannon, cool!) went off, we just stood there for 4 min. before we even began to even move! So the little chip was scanned when you crossed the start and finish line, fantastic. I can't wait to do it again next year!
