That was unfortunate.
Ignored. :pout:

I'm guessing too subtle, or too tasteless. Hey, if we can't laugh at tragic death, then what can we laugh at?

My moral compass was confused by your post. I saw the pun, but I wasn't sure if I should like a death joke so early in the morning. (Remember, I'm on Pacific Time.)

I'm pretty sure the family has requested donations to your favo(u)rite charity in lieu of flour.

A man died at a fortune cookie factory after he reportedly fell into a giant dough mixer. The employee was only 26 years of age. Police say the man was pronounced dead at the Houston cookie making factory over the weekend. The medical examiner’s office said he died of "multiple blunt trauma injuries" after tumbling over and being pulled into the dough-mixing machine.

downpour most of the run until the last bit, then it was light rain. then I got home showered and the sun came out of 2 hours. lol

it was a fantastic run however. Ive done a half marathon on my own but never an organized one, I went start to finish non stop run no walking, that is what I was proudest of

Awesome, matty. Congrats!

My first cycling group ride was a 40 miler and I had never done that distance before, but you get in the moment and they other just kind of help you along. Not sure if it's the same with a marathon, but I imagine it's very similar. It's pretty amazing how you feed off the energy of the group.

thanks

yeah its similar in that thought. You get caught up and just let the 10,000 people carry you through. its a pretty cool feeling, I was crossing a bridge and looked back to see about 5000 people running behind me. that was really incredible to see

I've run a couple of 10K, but have yet to do a half-marathon or marathon for that matter. My wife did the marathon in Honolulu though (she has some incredible pictures from that race).

If he would have fallen into the lomein* machine no one would have ever known.

As if the correlation above wasn't enough reason, if you use Internet Explorer for anything - stop right now.

It could very well be irreparably broken.
