Default National Running Day.. watch me celebrate tonight! :)

What's up everyone! If you guys are bored tonight, I will be running the 10k at the NCAA Championships this evening at 9:45 EST. In short, I had to get top 12 in my region (there are 2, East and West) to qualify, so there will be 24 of us toeing the line tonight.

I will be honest... I am kind of in over my head and really have no shot to win. Nonetheless, since it is national running day, I figured some of you might be interested in watching what should be a pretty good race (and hopefully I can snag a top 10 finish ). Yeah I know a 10k is really long... but I think you will find it fairly entertaining hopefully!

I am pretty sure it will be streamed here.
http://www.ncaa.com/liveschedule?DB_OEM_ID=15700

If for some reason that is wrong, it will be somewhere at ncaa.com, so you could find it there.

Happy running day!

P.S.: For those of you who don't know, my name is Sean Keveren, I run for Virginia, and I will be wearing a white uniform top with blue shorts.

To cheer on fellow FFRian, bballa48, first try this link.
If there are currently no videos scheduled, go here, click Live Events, then "Watch Now!" Day 1 of NCAA.

If everything is on schedule, he should be running 15 mins after I post this now. (6:45 PST, 9:45 EST in the white uniform top with blue shorts)

Happy National Running Day & good luck Sean~

Congrats on the effort. any sort of exercise is good, although dedicating only one day to it does seem American...
