OFFICIAL AMERICAN ZOFINGEN LIVE FEED

Greetings from the top of the run course. 15 hours to the long course start. This is a test of the droid for connectivity to the web. I am currently sober so even if this works tonight no guarantees for race day.

2015 American Zofingen Du is May 17.

Greatest updates thread... I remember the play-by-play of ML vs. Hirsch last year, and was waiting with bated breath.

Which begs the question, how much sleep are you going to get between now and race time tomorrow, sober or otherwise?

Rumor has it JH is nursing a run injury, so playing the part of JH in this year's action will likely be Rich Burke.
Please adjust your scorecards accordingly.

But, there is a cast of hundreds, so who knows what other doodes (or doodettes) are going to bring their A-games tomorrow?


Rubber-side DOWN, everybody!

Can you check to see if I'm in first? I don't see anyone around me and I've been running since 7:30 this morning.

Assuming she good and he's not planning to DNF - thats bad news as my son just asked me if I was getting chicked tomorrow.

I kid you not There's a porcupine sitting on the side of the trail Not looking too healthy Missing most of his quills just sitting there. I almost stepped on him. He's just passed the long wooden plank section Before you start the third and steepest climb.

Is the porcupine sober? Maybe he needs a drink.

All the great updates in the past were complements of boots. I've got big boots to fill.

I have all the respect in the world for Mendy, she is a monster.
That being said, she failed to chick Chris G 2 years ago, and Yoda last year.
So unless she's found her inner Chrissie or Rinnie in the past year - it ain't happening.

The other day on a bike ride, I did the mental math and figured that a 6:15 F1 was highly unlikely. Maybe a 6:30 (to 6:40) depending on weather conditions. A little while ago, while prepping the bike, I realized that with the 30 minute earlier start, the Long Course winner will most likely finish before me. That, for some reason, really, really sucks.

I'm off to the garden of Gethsemane to have a little one way discussion to see if this cup can pass me by.

Just picked up 2 cold kegs from Keegans, Mother's Milk Stout and Hurricane Kitty IPA.
It's up to the rest of you to bring the Red Bull, Jamesons and Baileys.
The run course is marked with our new patented, idiot proof signs. Huge yellow signs with black arrows.
Or will they build a bigger idiot?
Rhinebeck Brewing's head brewer and son have canceled their trip to a NJ Xterra. The son will be racing the Canadian Women's division; the father will be drinking all your beer if you don't hurry up and finish.
Today at the shop, he was handing our samples of RBC's Antietam Beet Lager. Tomorrow he will tap a new dark hefe-weizen.
Brian, the RBC head brewer, will be the other guy in a kilt. The handsome man in a kilt, with bagpipes, will be your humble RD.
AmZof legend, Kevin Krol, the only 6 time finisher of every long course to date, has finally succumbed to all his hard drinking and debauchery (not unlike your humble RD). Sadly, he will not be racing tomorrow, but has travelled all the way from Ohio to volunteer for the rest of you. He will be the honorary starter of the long course, a race that indelibly bears his mark.

In addition to driving from Ohio to volunteer, and being tomorrow's starter, Master Krol is an accomplished home brewer. I'm quaffing his black ale as I type and I must say it's fer shizzle!

While on the topic of my consuming alcohol, I've just cracked a Krol Stout and it is good craik.
In between Kevin's brews, the fair lasses from up north did provide this evening's de riguer La Fin Du Monde.
Merci!
