Hi everyone. Today is day 3 of the relay. Today was and still is an interesting day. We got up in the morning drove 70 miles to Philadelphia (the other team ran from the hotel to Philadelphia). Once we got to Philly, we started running you guessed it, right through the heart of Philly. Let me tell you, driving the motor home through a busy city is nerve racking. I'm not sure, but I think I hit a policeman (don't worry, I just swiped him, not his car, but him.) Don't worry, he's OK - I saw him get up of the ground. Just kidding, I did well. We dropped off a couple of our runners at City Hall to have a meeting and press conference with the Mayor. The rest of us continued on the relay. The weather is great 70 degrees and sunny. We are now in our shorts and tank tops. With the press conference, we are behind, so we are doubling our runs to get done in time. I'm up in about 1 hour to run an 8 mile leg. That and the 7 I have already done will put me at 15 today. I believe tomorrow we will be running through Washington D.C. I'll keep you informed on how that goes. As everyone here says ... "Straight on".
Talk to you tomorrow.
George
