we'll see, since you are early gate, we'll discuss in the morning once we have the course laid out and go from there and you can share with everyone as they come in.

Weather chat: I'm seconding what James Short was saying about weather.com and WRAL being awful. If you want a good idea what's going on you should go to weather.gov since it's the NOAA site and then give Wunderground.com a look because they have a bunch of base stations setup. If you want a better idea of the weather throughout the day, use the hourly breakdown on weather.com.

Garysburg, NC from Weather.gov for Saturday. :wink:

"A chance of rain or freezing rain before 10am, then a chance of rain. Cloudy, with a high near 48. North wind 3 to 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible."

I much prefer the current Weather.com android app forecast which doesn't mention nasty stuff. :lol:

Yes, that is intentional.

Due to the potentially variable weather conditions, we are considering split run groups. With attendance as low as it is, we may have two run groups, each with a morning and afternoon session with a brief lunch break in between. Once we lay out the final course and see the final numbers, we'll figure it out.

I like this idea, especially if turnout isn't huge. :thumbsup:

Great event today, the weather was a little cold to start, but beautiful by the end. No precip at the event or in transit.

Here's a short video of my 3rd run. Not my best run. I'll try to put together a better video later.
