I should register the name Mr. Sarcasm. It is my handle and I post regularly as Mr. Obvious, not only in obvious situations. I was just having fun.
Oh ok, no big deal or anything. I was just wondering if you actually thought the snow was from global warming and was confused by the thought.

Combine that with criminals so brazen to beat up 101 year olds using walkers for $37. Not to mention all the crime and the huge number of illegal handguns combing the streets. What are they thinking?
And why is Torres running? How does this fit into his racing for the summer? Doesnt this hurt him. Racing in the cold he could get injured, if 12k on grass is going to interrupt his summer racing, what about an 8k on the icy roads in cold temperatures.
I nominate this guy for letsrun pussy of the month.
Actually, everything he said is correct-perhaps its the quote of the day.
race could be postponed until Sunday

If this was a typical NYRR race, it would get cancelled (or turned into a fun run). They've cancelled races when there was two inches of snow on the ground. I'm interested to see how this will play out. An interesting scenario would be if the NYRR cancel the 7:30AM club team scoring race and still hold the 8K Champs at 9:00AM. To be honest, anything is possible. Nothing good will come out of this.....
You came close to nailing it. The NYRR race was turned into a non-scoring fun run, and National Champs were moved to tomorrow (Sunday). I couldn't find much reason to drive 45 minutes and deal with Manhattan parking to jog
five miles, so I slept in and blew it off.
Winkyiconhere!!
It will keep the NYC rioters quiet, and if we're lucky and it snows in DC, the protesters there will get frostbite.
Quit protesting and vote for decent candidates.
