Hey RS, missed you this week at the track, but makes sense reading your update re: H Pylori. My wife had a nice bout with that years ago. Got some kind of regimen of drugs that knocked it out. She still takes a probiotic every day to keep things on the up and up. I got your update for the list, will make the change. DE will be fun, anyone out there, it's the Saturday after T-giving, if you're in the NE, it's a fun race. Course is brutal, but it's a runners race, low entry fee, great random drawing at the end with top notch gear. Wouldn't blame you for deferring Philly, it has been, well, a less than ideal build. Maybe you deserve a break from the stress of a marathon build, might do wonders for your stomach as well (stress eats away at mine).
Send the best to the Mrs for Steamtown, I'll be watching the results roll in, she's a stud, she'll kill it.
