Matt,

Sounds good. We did out and back a few years ago in Livermore and that
was a bit tougher just because its a little harder to manage your
pace, throw a tough hill into the mix and we'll just have to see what
happens! Have you received many entries? Hope we get a good turnout!

Chris, you talked about video taping the event and putting a video up
on YOUTUBE, any plans to still do that? I don't have a camera or very
good editing software but I could get us a camera gal. Let me know if
its still something that is plausible.

Have a STREND day, see you guys next week!

1.5 mile out and back, that does have a tough hill coming back that
takes it out of you.  The other alternative is  about 3  one mile
loops that I mapped out but have not actually tested.  Don't worry it
will be mapped out and explained race day.
