Less Than A Week

I can't believe it but we are less than a week away from the race. I just checked Louisville weather for next Saturday and they are calling for a high of 52, a low of 42 and 0% chance of rain. I hope that holds.

Friday night Chris Ball has arrainged for the West Lafayette contingent (and anyone else brave enough to put up with us) to meet at DiFabio's restaurant in Louisville.

If you want to meet before the race Saturday morning, we can assemble on the river side of the I 64 overpass on the The Great Lawn. We will have some bags you can put sweats or other stuff you are wearing to stay warm but don't want to run in. Sarah (pregnant daughter) will gather this up and have it at Drakes after the race.

Speaking of Drakes, Marti and I really hope you will be our guest there after the race for a celebration. They open at 11:15 and we have a room reserved until 2:00 pm.

For those of you staying Saturday night (and are not too sore to walk) we will probably check out 4th street live in downtown Louisville.

The hard part is behind us. See you this weekend for the reward.

Thanks for caring enough to be part of this journey to completion.
