I saw that too. No explanation either. Why would they shut down without notice in one week. And Team Bird is disbanding. Odd.

I hope Jed gives an explanation. I've been reading that site for years. How else will I catch up on all the local running gossip??

Get serious. Why would anyone have a running site in Indiana ? Are there are runners in that state ? Any running water ? Any public sewage ? Any public electricity ? Any cable television ? Etc. ?

you have to be just stupid.. but however yes bob kenedy is from indiana actually and he happens to be the best american distance runner every go figure!

Indiana isn't as stupid as evidenced by the last poster.

We know how to spell "Bob Kennedy"

We know that Bob is actually from Ohio, and now lives in Indy.

But Indiana is a good state for CC. Just look at all the top 25 teams from this small state. And this is actually a bad year for the state.

Men

DI

Notre Dame (14)

Butler (19)

DII

S. Indiana (23)

DIII (10/31)

Anderson (23)

Depauw (25)

NAIA

Ind. Wesleyan (20)

We also have the Indiana Invader, the most successful semi-pro "track" club in the US.

And we could bring up some of the current collegiate runners who are from Indiana.

Alissa McKaig, Jessica Gall, Lindsay Hattendorf, Cassie Peller, Wendi Robinson, Racheal Marchand, Cassie Hunt -- all top 20 in their regionals

Nef Araia, winner of the West Regional

Others I\'m sure...

In short, Indiana running is pretty good. Especially since we dont have any of that class system crap.

and don't forget, in the 20s Indiana had the largest membership in the KKK of any state.

And that is relevant to the closing of RunIndiana.com how?

Dang it! Runindiana.com is closing down? What am I going to do at work?

As a loyal reader could we at least get an explaination? Please? Jed is a great guy and his site was a huge benefit to area running. It is a loss and will be missed.

I wonder if HoosierAuthority bought he out?

It's been more recent than the 1920's. But Tennessee or Kentucky has since taken that title away from us.

Bob Kennedy was actually born in Bloomington, Indiana.

Wow, could I screw a sentence up any more than that?

His Dad went to Indiana, and was a pretty good CC runner there.

20's ? What about now. Dick Lugar is the KKK Grand Cyclops. We hate all papists and Kennedys.

Anyone know how Robert Duncan is running lately?

I know he went to Southern Illinios University for a couple of years, hopefully he's still getting a few miles in.

Just thought i'd ask seeing it's a Indiana related thread.

And Indiana is only home of the largest half marathon in America. And USATF, that is the United States of America TRACK and FIELD. Also home to the NCAA headquarters. Also home to the Divison I cross country championships. Also home to Bob Kennedy. Also home to 6 local running stores just in the city of Indianapolis. Also, just hosted the 2005 Track Nationals at IUPUI. Also home to Butler, Indiana, Notre Dame, Indiana State all solid DI teams. Also home to the best trio of high school runners on the same team: Chapa, Pinkowski, Keough (8:51, 8:52, 8:56) two miles respectively. Also home to current/post college standouts: Nef Araia, Christian Wagner, Aaron Fisher, Ryan Warrenburg, and Kyle Baker.

But yea you are right. No one should have running site about Indiana. There's pretty much nothing going on here.
