Maybe I should try it next year...
Woohoo, I'm in a movie! Though it kinda depresses me a bit that not that far away there's some guy with baby carriages...
And Ruhis, it's really worth trying for. I don't have lots of experience about these kind of events but I can still say this is the best.
Note how Topo after slow start speeds up and passes people at about 2:16 of video time. He is such a talent :)
Have to admit that I didn't see that the first time :) Looking forward to see how much such a talent can improve for next year.
I've seen similar kind of talent running Helsinki City Marathon (twice) and passed me on both times. New goal for Topo? HCM2010
Maybe half marathon first. sub 90 minutes would be nice doable target for him. Its 7 minutes slower than my HCR time, 20 sec/km marginal. Should be possible if there is no many sharp turns and uphills.
Very cool. But man, it looks cold!
Cold? it was about +2 C, nice runnig weather. Or did you mean for Topo? Topo handles these temperatures just fine, yesterday he slept outdoors at -1C temperature for three hours. I know they don't let babies sleep outdoors at all in some countries but here we do. Unless it's somethign like -15C.
