I've never met you but have got the impression (could be wrong) that you prefer the shorter stuff, born out by your recent 5k times. So, given all that, you had a tremendous run.TDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065862431190588813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13733449.post-10139075472443428052007-03-15T13:27:00.001+11:002007-03-15T13:27:00.001+11:00Hey!
