Track and Field Blogs - Mark From Flotrack

A slight detour

June 23, 2008

So it looks like our little road trip has taken a detour, and we are not talking about Las Vegas. We are 20 miles outside of santa Rosa, NM waiting for a tow truck. It looks like we got some bad gas and the gas filter is clogged. Of course I have no idea what I'm talking about but that is my best guess. If anyone is near Santa Rosa or knows someone there that might be able to help us out, fix our car, feed us, or wants to go for run let us know. We have about 25 more mins until our truck gets here and we will check back when we know more.

Later,

Mark, stranded, flo

#14	Sd Guy Troll June 23, 2008 at 9:55pm You need to grow up, and go do something else with yourself. Instead of criticizing things that you'll never accomplish. Like putting this great site together and promoting sports that don’t get enough attention. reply
