PS should there be a popular demand for this thread, it would
be better if someone with a habit of posting on Sundays took
up the responsibility and the honour of starting it each week.

(I never do - I´m strictly an "only on my employer´s time"
kind of guy.)

I believe that Eric Shmo Chandler is also a U23 category.
Hmm, I bet you're correct,

I'm sure he'll make up for my error it by beating up on me in some race
in the midwest this winter.

I believe he is a U of MN ski teamer. He went to the Birkie last year
for his 1st one. He did something outlandish, like a top 100 finish
from Wave 2.

Hell, man, I'm 36. I wish I was U23. Maybe it's my rapier wit that makes me
seem edgy and young. Or not.

Sorry man, I'm a 19 year old occasional poster. Hell, I'm still a
junior. Talk about dillusions of grandeur...

That was a 10 or 11 hour week for me, third in a row.
