I don't believe you. I think you've been grossly rude to
David. He will invoke the spirit of his saintly mother and
challenge you to a duel.

I hope you're more of a man than Anders and turn up for the
thing. Can I be your second?

hehehe... I just got back to this thread now. :-) Actually,
I am on musical hiatus while the race season is underway.
Being an RD takes up way too much time (if you want to put
on quality events, that is).

Yes, I have a business partner and we are both very excited
about bringing a full series of quality races to the area.

All this began as just an idea in my head while on a
training run going up and down the Hamilton Escarpment over
a year ago. It became reality this spring when I took on a
partner and we planned a first race to get our feel wet,
with a goal of a 3 - 5 race series in 2005.

However, we recently decided to purchase the rights to an
existing race (which Bill Rodgers actually ran once about
7-8 years back; I think he won it).

I completely re-designed the course to make what I believe
to be the fastest 5k in Canada, certainly in Ontario. I have
partnered up with The Running Room, and you can register for
this race online at their site:

http://www.events.runningroom.com/si...eId=1068&cont-
entId=5889

The other event is not for online registration yet, that
will be in a few days. There's $1800 prize money for that
one, it is a flat fast 5k and an open one mile. The Kenyans
will show up for sure.

Are you going to enter my race? ;-)

cheers,
