We have a Winner!

I left Osaka early Monday morning(Osaka time) and I'm pretty tired. I did not get much sleep last night because after the races there was an after party for all the athletes, staff and I guess Spanish team managers. Anyway the party was a lot of fun with a lot of bad dancing but as I have some time to kill in the Seoul airport I was curious as to see how accurate the predictions were for the "Win Nick Willis gear contest.
It turns out we were pretty good at guessing the women's 1500 time with the winning time almost exactly correct. g2g4gold picked 3:58.76 and the winning time was 3:58.75. Pretty good guess and for it g2g4gold gets a travel bag filled with goodies. On the other hand we kind of sucked guessing the 5k time. The winner dgross was more then 20 seconds away but that does not matter because he is the winner and gets a signed pair of Nick Willis New Zealand color shoes.
Anyway I hope we got this right but if we made a mistake or you want to find out the averages of our guesses go for it because I kind of want to know. Well I got to jump on a plane for 14hrs which should be fun. I hope I get my own TV screen.
Wish me luck,
Mark

Hey Mark. For some reason I haven't been able to post on the board concerning the T-shirts. However, I would really like one if there are any more available. If you have any left, that would be great.

we wanted it that way so people don't predict multiple times

Hey, my pick for Lagat in 13:31.6 is 7 seconds closer than Gross's. I was the last to submit, but I don't think they had run yet.
