Yours is a much nicer towel, probably not purchased at Costco like ours. But the noticeable difference is throwing off my sense of order when stacked with my cheesy towels. Want to trade?

(Submitted April 4, 2010 23:44:40 by Krista)Hi GAC! Planning ahead here... if you are looking for a pacer for Vermont, I am looking to pace someone. I have run the VT100 or portions of it before...I've got to mile 85 the first year (ouch, lessons learned), finished the next year (woohoo!), and last year paced someone for the last 30 miles and not only did he finish, he is still talking to me. If you are looking for someone to pace you for the last 30 I'm your man! or gal!Gilly can vouch for me. Don't know if that is a good thing to mention or not! :) But, Id also need a ride to and from the race from the Boston area and can go in on accomodations. If interested let me know kschep@hotmail.com thanks!
