What say you? 13 miles, eh? Perhaps we can form a UU contingent at the BSR. I *might* do this year’s Broad Street Run; I’ll *likely* do the Philly Distance Run again. What say you? 13 miles, eh?

True to form, the one thing that happened is the one thing I did not imagine happening: Selected as an alternate, neither sent home early nor taken as a useful participant for all of my trouble. As you say, it is only really useful to observe and experience the "now".
