    For now at least there isn't rain in the forecast. I hope it sticks.

    BTW, I plan to do a 10 mile run. I think Diego is up for that distance as well.

    I think I may be up for 10 miles or so, but I'll see how it goes. I think hydration may be the key issue for me Sunday, given the humidity.

    There are supposed to be drinking fountains at Channelside Park which is just off of Main on the other side of the channel. Not having actually seen these fountains myself, I can't say for certain where they are or if they are really there.

    I think that would be fine Diego. That waywe don't make Matt feel like he has to run 10 miles, which I'm sure he would love to but I know he has a little one to think about.

    Hey, Guys! Sorry I've been out of touch. I'm still in! I'm "supposed" to do a 7-miler this weekend, but I think I'll be up for more, however I know my pace is slower than all of yours... so I'll hang with you guys for a while, and then I'll probably fade back after a few miles to settle into my "long haul" speed. :)



    I'll be there at 8.

    Chelsea -- I'm not sure I'm supposed to do any this weekend, but I'll aim for anywhere from 5 to 11, depending on how it goes. For my long runs, I tend to go really, really slow, so I might be the one who falls behind first.

    We can fall behind in good company, then. :)

    Given we ate diner this evening in the area, I did a little scouting mission. There are fountains in Channel park, but with the dogs. But just north of that, on the other side of main, there is a working water fountain in a small Evanston park. Just good to know it's there.
