The Competition is On

I don't know if you've seen it yet, but over at http://www.thelostsport.co.nz/ the Wellington team videotaped their most recent run... and of course their resident runner, Atalanta, has beaten me by a good 1.35 seconds, setting the record at somewhere around 14.09 seconds. I now officially challenge the Wellington runner Atalanta to a friendly competition that will last until the closing ceremony of the Olympics. May the best... runner win. (can't say man on account that Atalanta is a woman.) I will be training in my backyard, because I see that I am not the only one who knows the turns by heart.

It makes me sad that I can't go to the San Francisco practice tomorrow, but I will help run the Omphalabyrinth and I'll be around for as many of the others as possible. This competition is going to be truly epic. Wellington, THE GAUNTLET HAS BEEN PUT DOWN.
