PSU Track Alumni Golf Soap Opera: As the World Showcase Churns

Today's 10K in the Dopey Challenge is only double the simple baby steps from yesterday with the real challenge starting tomorrow at the Half Marathon.  But you wouldn't have known that from the complaining from the actual challengers during yesterday's stroll around Epcot's World Showcase in the steady downpour.

And here's my plate of Kung Pao for those keeping score.

a plate of pure joy.
