| Go Roe Go. My Boston
Marathon Homeruns order
came in on time; and the cookout proceeded shortly thereafter. We
-- Amy, Michelle (Amy's friend from ASU
days and Rochelle's friend), Toby (Rochelle's husband), Ben, Sam and I
-- all had a great time and went over to cheer on thousands of runners
and Rochelle during the afternoon. Roe -- as in "Go Roe Go" -- did
very well as she automatically qualified for next year's race. Her
official time was 3:42:51 (net time was around 3:38:35) and she came in
8,164 position among all finishers (about 20,000 started the race), 1592
position among all women and 1298 position among all women in her age group..
This is remarkable given that she has been running for only two years.
Oprah would love her story -- "four
kids birthed, youngest out of diapers, I am going to take up running."
And run Roe does. We'll try to convince her to take this seriously
and go for the 2004 Olympics.
My CVS order containing my foot pads
finally arrived; I placed the order on April 2. I suspect it will
be sometime before I will order from CVS.com again; and, for the record,
I enjoyed shopping CVS bricks during the days when I did enter stores.
