Pete, you stay healthy 'cause I see some good races for you this year!
C'mon down to Crim at the end of August and match strides w/fellow Great White Northman Ed Whitlock.
Scott,
I may be living a little closer to your parts by August.
Where's Crim run?
Flint, about an hour west of Sarnia. I live about a dozen miles south of Flint in Fenton.
Scott, my brother went to school in Flint, and now works for GM somewhere near Detroit, so that might be a chance to go visit sometime after our move in early August. Mind you, I imagine I won't be all that keen on a road trip so soon after loading and unloading furniture and boxes.
I visited my brother in Flint back then. Maybe I didn't see the right sights, but it didn't seem like a town with a whole lot to offer. Is that a fair assessment?

Yes, it's a fair assessment. Flint is NOT the garden spot of the midwest. It's A Town That Used To Be Something. But don't let that stop you from running the race. You'll be too busy to look around at the passing scenery (altho from 6 1/2-8 miles in the 10 mile the neighborhood is beautiful). About 14,000+ in all events don't participate because of Flint's aesthetics.
Incidentally, the name of the race, Crim, comes from Bobby Crim, now a retired politician. Bobby stills run and does pretty good in his 70-74 age group.
