Today was the world wide "Human Race" organized by Nike. Runners from around the globe all took part in a 10 kilometer (6.2 mile) race.Race courses were set up in multiple cities: Shanghai, Melbourne, Singapore, Seoul, Taipei, Istambul, Rome, etc. Austin, New York, and LA were the locations in the US.
Paul decided to participate in the event too late to run in the physical race in Singapore (registration was already closed). However, the Nike+ training system provided a "virtual" alternative. The system tracks distance and time of a run and then uploads it to the Nike+ race system. The goal was to complete the race at a 9 minute/mile pace or better.
Mission accomplished: just under 54 minutes or 8:42/mile.

That sounds fantastic! Congrats Paul. Also I wanted you to know I am going to request off the weekend you are in town so I can drive down to Cinci to see you guys. I miss you so much. I would love to see some traditional or cultural clothing. Raye, have you been shopping recently, I would love to see what you buy.
I miss you both very much and am so glad you are having such a wonderful time.
- love always
