Charity: Dartmouth, Columbia, and Chattanooga Area

very cool idea

but that's really fast

10K if G.McArdle can break 80

Great idea Oliver!

What about washed-up TN guys you used to race in high school? Can we participate?

Screw it, why not: Ex-TSSAA DII Athletes who ran at some time during 2000-2005 are included

How is your dad doing? I see him every once in a while, but I don't think I ran into him at all this fall. Think maybe the last time was last spring?

Does being pushed in a wheelchair count ?

Seems like it, but not for the crowd that Van helped create.

Bumbi -- can you break Oliver's bank?

Here you go O-Town:

Leverone says she misses you.

Bumbi's in. Got a bit sick when he returned to Portland after holidays in Tenn, but once he gets back on track, hedge your bets.

Look for an interview soon on Kimbia site that we are doing on his formative HS years.

If Bumbi is in does he get included in the sub 50 deal with Carmody?

Appreciate the people who have done it so far. Up to $2,000 in a few days.

Oliver-do you get to extend the ex-TSSAA DII athletes to 2009? I've only been running for a few months post neurosurgery so I'd say it's not a high probability I'll be meeting the standard.

You're an ex Baylor runner. That counts as a Chattanooga area runner

I will be making my donation as well. This is a great thing that Oliver and his siblings put together to honor his dad. I hope more people do it in the next few weeks.

Hi Oliver, what an awesome idea for a charity challenge! I'm Columbia '02, and took to Red Hook track in Brooklyn last night. It was very dark, but I hope the stopwatch and blur of me coming across the line will be sufficient. (And please excuse the excitement of the camerawoman at the end there.) I know a bunch of Columbia alums are planning to get together soon and give it a go. Thanks so much for initiating this.

Great I did Oliver, I went out today and did it (I'm a Chattanooga area runner):

meant to say "great idea"

Thanks for doing this, it was fun. My video is posted here although my camerawoman mistakenly turned off the video before I could show my watch:
