Hi Coach Rio. I have a question, and this is not to dispute what you and the staff did last Sunday.
There sure seemed like a lot of participants in Singapore!
Anyway, terrific work and I’ve heard and read many positives. I’ll see you on Sunday, November 9th, 24 hours after arriving! I think there’s a race that you’re putting on. Please take care!

Hi Rio. Thanks for sharing that with us. A friend of mine who works for Niketown-SF said the same thing. He ran the Los Angeles version. Congrats again. I’ll see you in a few weeks.
