Geert et al.:

I said that Brent and I weren't running Grete's race because we were running the
HARTFORD Marathon, which is on Oct. 8, six days after Grete's. I heartily
encourage everyone else to run Grete's race, which is a team points race.
(Staten Island is NOT a team race this year.)

If you're running the NYC Marathon, you should definitely run at least 1 of the
2 half marathons, and if you only want to run 1, please make it Grete's. It's
(1) more convenient to get to, (2) further ahead of the marathon and (3) has
much better food after the race.

John
