Rest and dinner at Westover Centre

I was finally picked up by van 2 as my van 1 was out on the course. Luke H apparently ran a very fast 6+ km and then they came to get me. We came to the Westover who is organizing this event. They have a 19 day treatment that uses the '12 step' process. The centre is a beautiful huge Victorian mansion. The kitchen staff made a great pasta dinner. I didn't want to eat too much as I run around 10:20pm (1hr from now - I ate 1.5 hrs ago when I first got here).

Waves 1 started out about 45 min ago and wave 2 left about 10 min ago.

Must not forget to pay Art back his $5 he lent me for dinner. I need an bank machine.

The rain is holding off so far but the clouds are looking darker and lower. It is starting to get pretty dark, street lights are on.

Stats: we are 4th overall and 2nd in the age 40+ category.

Cumulative time for 132.4 km is 9:09:28 with average pace of 4:10/km. We are 1:08 behind the (very fast) lead team.
