...How do you do?<br />You tried MIWOK 100K with dressed <br />as Elvis? Fantastic! <br /><br /> Dressed (or Costume play running) <br />is extraordinarily difficult to run <br />(finisher), because of many problems:<br /><br /><br />humid, heavy (wearing), pressure, <br /><br /><br />and so on. <br /><br /> Dispite many problems of dressed run, <br />you did a good job as a strong runner, <br />Ian. Costume play run needs preparing <br />for running skills, strong courage. <br /><br /> I hope that Ian would run strong <br />and enjoyable.<br /><br /><br />P.S: In Japan, some runners tried <br /> cosutume running (Kasou-run) <br /> in a running race.<br /><br /> A few runners dressed costume <br /> run faster. (ex.run 100K within <br /> 7h59min, 26.2K run with sub-3hours, <br /> etc.)Kin-cho-no-meijinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-40883613871746172372011-05-17T21:22:15.043-07:002011-05-17T21:22:15.043-07:00Nice job on the fundraising, Ian.

Craig seems to think you're going to run States as Kermit the Frog, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that one.

Comrades is my absolute favorite race of all time -- I just wish I could run it every year.<br /> <br />I made a general donation at the Starfish site but in the comments section I made sure I noted that it was in support of "Ian Sharman's fundraising efforts while running in this year's Comrades Marathon." Best of luck again on the 29th!Ric Munozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17757361847046350615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-83437780657327032272011-05-11T13:49:43.313-07:002011-05-11T13:49:43.313-07:00Ric - Glad I can be of some help.

Seems fitting to help out with a charity that works with people along the Comrades course, especially since the country still has some horrendous poverty even as it gets richer.sharmanianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14079178597179728898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-49279638399317046842011-05-09T21:27:40.267-07:002011-05-09T21:27:40.267-07:00wow,i will reccmend your blog to my girls

As a person who's lived with HIV for nearly 30 years, I more than most appreciate the efforts made by elites like you and Kami to keep the awareness and fundraising candles burning.<br /> <br />Back in '80 and '81, when it was an almost certain death sentence to be infected, those of us lucky enough to "hang on" benefitted greatly from the organizations (such as AIDS Project Los Angeles) that were created from scratch with no corporate assistance of any kind -- just friends appealing to friends to contribute to a fund to helps those in need.<br /> <br />I'll head over to the Starfish site and make a donation. And I'll also wish you well at Comrades as you try to finish under 6 hours. I currently have two Ups and one Down finish. I hope to return for next year's Down Run to even up my totals.<br /> <br />In the meantime, I trust your trek from Durban to Pietermaritzburg will be a big success. I'll look for you at Western States to congratulate you on your Comrades triumph. I won't be able to congratulate you on your WS finish because I'll be finishing at least 10 hours after you do!Ric Munozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17757361847046350615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-83604238923459427702011-05-09T14:17:54.140-07:002011-05-09T14:17:54.140-07:00Loving the Elvis get up.
