I was going to run the JRT yesterday, but when I went to bed, the forecast was for rain. When I got up and saw the dry ground, I was mad at those weather guys.

I quit listening to them. Look at the temp on the phone, and then look outside, it is much more accurate. I am meeting Jun at antelope island main gate at 9am.

I think everyone else is gathering at 8 a.m. Are you guys running something else?

From Dragonvulture on Fri, Mar 04, 2011 at 17:54:32 from 65.44.116.4

I'm not sure why Jun was going at 9 instead of 8, and who was going with him. I originally was going to go at 8, but don't really know anyone anyways, so figured I would just go with Jun, who I actually haven't met either.

I expect there will be a huge group at 8 a.m. I was going to do more miles, so I will probably show up there at about 5:30 and run the the causeway and back before the main run. Then just take it easy and do a social run with the crowd, getting to know people.

DV, beware of jun. He stalked me on the Internet for two years before I agreed to run with him. And even before that I had to do a background check. That came up questionable.

From crockett on Fri, Mar 04, 2011 at 18:14:19 from 71.36.86.94

Jun has a good group of FRB runners at 9:00. We'll probably cross paths.

From Dragonvulture on Fri, Mar 04, 2011 at 18:19:25 from 65.44.116.4

Lol. Well, you must like having stalkers, you seem to be good at collecting them. I've only been stalking you for a year. Does the island not open until 8? How many miles are you planning on getting in between 5:30 and 8?

From crockett on Fri, Mar 04, 2011 at 18:33:18 from 71.36.86.94

Not sure when the gate opens, but it probably is 8 a.m. I'm thinking of doing at least 14 pre-game. The causeway is seven miles to the island.

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Mar 04, 2011 at 18:52:50 from 66.239.250.209

Hey DV, I wish I could join you guys tomorrow. I can vouch for everything that Crockett said about Jun.
