I ran the Bill Luti 5-miler today (july 19,2008. I was actually next to Olympian Dow and what an awesome feeling that was. To see someone like that. She passed me and finished ahead without a problem, but being that close (even though she wasn't racing) was awesome for me. GO GET 'EM IN BEIJING!!! I know you will make us all proud.
