Fanny, Jeff I know you must know the best dim Sum around the flushing area, we should all go after the race.

gotta get your "electrolytes" replenished with some salty dimsum. I feel you! let's do it. and yes, I'm officially a course marshal; hopefully I'll be placed in the last couple miles.

i won't be able to make this run, so does anyone want to host this event in my place? all you'd have to do is gather people for brunch, and looks like you've guys have already decided on a dim sum place.

I won't be able to join you guys post-race since I'm volunteering; as for dim-sum recs in Flushing, it might be tough because it is the weekend, but here are some places; hopefully someone can gather the troops.

I know, I pretty much was screaming/running that whole mile. I liked the course too but it was a bit scary with people collapsing everywhere. Tough day to run a half! Good job!

Ugh - so sorry I missed this one... had a hockey game at 10:00pm Friday night, didn't get to bed til around 1:00am Saturday morning and slept right through the alarm. My dream of completing the Grand Prix will have to wait another year...
