"The Breakfast Menu is Pain and Donuts, and We're All Out of Donuts"

The Dopey Challengers all shuffled off from their temporary domiciles to the same staging area as the last 3 days with very little in mirth tagging along.  Yesterday's warm and humid Half-Marathon seemed to take the cheer out of the entire crowd.

Thankfully, the weather today is cooler and has significantly less humidity. But none of the competitors are eager to sign up for next year's version.  The advice from those in charge of the event is to run/walk the event for survival's sake. Those 6 medals won't just magically appear.

In slightly faster running, the Penn State Relays* were yesterday, but Matt will chime in for some direct reportage.  Our fellow Track Alumni Golfers were in-house and at-large all over the Ashenfelter Complex, fielding 2 teams of DMR entrants.

    Good luck to the Dopey Challengers. Ever since you posted that Gary is a Dopey Challenger, my left hip has been hurting.

    I'm kinda sorta nervous this time. If Gary pulls this off it's a bigger deal than most think. And Barb was really worried last night. But the weather today is much nicer.
