July 4th at 9 for any takers. Whos in.
CF Games Day 2? Rowing for sure. Concept 2 people didn't come all the way out to see their rowers not get used.
I suspect it just may be a 5k row.

I'll be there at 9 for sure to yell at people...still letting the hole in my hand recover.
I don't doubt at all that the C2s will make an appearance in day 2. Afterall, it is the 2nd best full body exercise behind swimming and I'm pretty sure they don't have any pools out there.

I'll be there at 9:00.

Here's an article on taping your hands (Luca posted this a few months back)

Fran!!!! What the hell, I will be there for sure. You guys better represent at the games. I wish I could attend. Lets go for some PR's.

Sorry, but I can't make it, today (and I'm going to miss an attempt to correct my sad 9+ FRAN!)
Pleasant Hill's 4th parade is at 9:30am, and Kate would kill me if I missed it.
I am going down to the games in a caravan with Luca at 5:30am (via San Francisco). I plan to stay through Sunday morning, and I'm planning on driving back to Arnold on Sunday at some point (no specific plan, yet).
I will bring plenty of food, a cooler (with room in it) and ICE!

When do the festivities start on Sunday? Anyone planning on going down on Sunday AM? Can I just show up and pay the spectator fee? My cell phone # is 925-768-5078

Mike, I am pretty sure you can just show up and pay the spectator's fee. If you can't, I'll give you a call.

I am bringing Apples, Bananas, Oranges, and beef jerky to share. Oh, and a bottle of Tapatio. See everyone tomorrow morning!

We'll see you guys there. We're planning to make the trip down with Dustin and Lauren who visited DCF with the other VPD guys. I don't think we're going down on Sunday though. Good luck, everyone!!!

Mike E. can bring people back on Sunday! So, we're locked and loaded.

Awesome...I have a ride back on sonday.
JJ-i got the registration fixed. Turns out it was an admin error, they were doing MX on the site and made a mistake. But I'm registered.

Since I missed you guys, I did:
5K run (24:23--not a PR, there were hills, I swear!)
The parade was pretty fun. No zone diet food was distributed to the spectators. Only simple sugars (and yo-yos).

A head's up for any and all not attending The Games...I'll be at the Shed tomorrow at noon if anyone wants to join.
