It is Wednesday afternoon, April 18, as I sit in the Madison, Wisconsin airport. I am having a Sam Adams lager and updating your favorite blog. Thanks to Nicola Okey of the Virgin London marathon, we get updated on everything going on in London. This years race will be the virtual trials for Kenyan, Ethiopian and several other countries. The race should be very fast and extremely close. Watch for our updates starting tomorrow!
