I thought the movie was okay. It looked like the Chicago weather was awesome in 2005. I am still planning to run it this October. Anybody want to put me up?
The best part of the movie was afterwards when the lights went up and I saw and visited with other runners I know. I saw Maddy and Marathon Chris plus some other folks from Track Shack.
I plan to run the Seasons 52 Park Avenue 5K Saturday morning. Maddy will be there as will "Helga" from Stockholm. I look forward to a fast race in 50F and a Cuban omelette waiting for me afterwards. Then I will enjoy the rest of my birthday and some good pasta chow that night.
Sunday will be the peak of A1A Marathon training with my second 20 miler. I am ready for that. I had a massage today just to get loose and ready.
My name is David (Dylan to some). I am a runner.

Just "ok"? Didn't you get goose bumps, or are you the strong silent type?
It was good to see you tonight!
The movie made me want to run Chicago. Funny - I lived about 40 miles northwest of the city until I was 12. I've been to Chicago several times and it never occured to me that it might be a race I would like to run...
I hope to see you on Saturday. Look for the pink camo bandanna - it will be me!
Just okay? I guess I'm glad I didn't go. They are having an encore performance so I might just skip that, too!
I thought it was pretty good. Better than the TV movie that played a few months back because it covers the journey of the elites as well as the "everyday" marathoning folks.
I wouldn't rate it a blockbuster, but I enjoyed the movie.
Great meeting you last night!!! Good luck in tomorrow's 5K. Maybe I will see you there - I am currently planning to come out and cheer you guys on!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
and good luck tomorrow!!!
I'd be happy to put up with...i mean put you up ANY TIME! :)
Happiest Birthday David! I hope you celebrate well, you only turn 35 once.
