Bolder Boulder
Just got back from running the Boulder Bolder. It was fun. Kind of a hassle, but fun. 50,000+ runners descended onto Boulder for the 10K. They had bands and belly dancers along the way, as usual. I ran past a guy (I think it was a guy) in a full-on Scooby Doo costume. They definitely have that race down to a science though. They "processed" us through the route without any hitches or delays. Man. I'm slow! I wanted to run it in under an hour. I snuck in at 59:31. Phew. The last several hundred yards of the race yakes you up a little hill into Folsom Field. Kind of creates a little "chariots of fire" moment... um, if you're someone with an overactive imagination.

Wonder if Scooby Doo was my friend Brian (he was the tall bald guy at my BBQ). He was in a Gorilla Suit last time.
Yay for running the Bolder Boulder! Good accomplishment :)
By the way, if you want any good running tips or are just interested in a blog written by a runner, a guy I worked with at the Trib (whose wife - actually one of my old instructors from high school - just had twins! Small freakin' Greeley for ya) writes a pretty good blog. He's also very into climbing and poker, and I always enjoy reading his blog.
