Greeting from Vegas all!!! The weather is great and we are having an awesome time!! Here's my two cents.... Lots of times some people miss spell their name or the city they are from which makes it impossible to find them in the results. 
See you all at the end of the week.

yes Patti, you're right...and that's why I think Sandy doesn't mind the extra "eyes" when and if that happens.

That's not fair!  Patti gets a girls' weekend in Barrie one weekend and the next week she gets to go to Vegas????  How did you get so lucky, Patti????  (Say hi to Donnie for me!)

Yes, I can see how people could make a typo and get missed.  Or reverse their first and last name (I remember running with Ms. Coakley Nancy once.   laugh  Sorry Nancy, didn't mean to make fun of you (much).

I know that it is usually important to people who are doing their "firsts" that they see the results in the paper.  I know I always felt a sense of accomplishment and actually felt like an athlete!  I even have had people who asked me if I was the Jane whose name is always in the paper for running and actually thought that I was a good runner because my name was in the paper.  Thank goodness they didn't realize that my times weren't really fast!   embarrassed  And there have been times when it probably would have been better when the results weren't there.   rolleyes embarrassed  But that is okay Sandy.  Keep sticking it in there.  At least I am doing something!   tongue

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
