Crap, now I am kicking myself for not going down to watch. Were there cowbells aplenty ringing, or did the FF security Nazis confiscate them again? |

It was a great effort by Fam - he was all by himself after the 2nd lap. There were cowbells aplenty, tons of people near the water jump and the one of the squeegie guys was wearing a blond wig! |

Fam also didn't run any steeples before the 2007 USATF Meet. Granted he was also running way fast in other events this time last year too... |

Fam thinks he can run 8:15 right now. I wonder how fast he'll be in June? |

Fam's had trouble in previous seasons maintaining his momentum. Let's hope he doesn't over race in this important year... |
