Ditto.

Runners are nuts -- but I have a lot of respect for them.

In a former life, I was Executive Producer of live telecasts of the Bolder Boulder 10K run each Memorial Day. That race has over 30,000 entrants now and was founded in part by Frank Shorter, and Olympic Gold Medalist who worked with us on the telecast.

On hot days, runners would line the fence outside Folsom Field on the University of Colorado campus (finish line) barfing. On the other hand, after a couple of minutes to recover, many looked like they had taken a stroll in the park.

Good luck to you and congratulations on a great cause.
