I like the finish area.<br /><br />Something to remember…if you do come out for Comrades one year, there is no chip time and the start will cost you some minutes (7 - 10). In SA we have only gun time and although there are seeding batches everyone start together.Johannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17588120934444485158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831613295895512847.post-66557551246061583742011-04-01T21:24:34.681-07:002011-04-01T21:24:34.681-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Green Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02319714826599995511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831613295895512847.post-65168579093056704532011-03-31T01:02:43.661-07:002011-03-31T01:02:43.661-07:00Thanks so much for the comment on my blog!
