Corktown 2011

Hey STR - if you are headed to the D on Sunday for Corktown, let me know (Vinnie). Email me at phillipbiga@yahoo.com and we can meet up at packet pickup before the race and grab a beer afterwards. No tent this year, I can't stay long after the race and Ralph and Annette have just welcomed their son Jack Patrick Donold into the world so the Ellis family is a little sleep deprived. Good luck to everyone that is running this weekend!
