Flotrack news and links for January 16th, 2014



Happy Thursday Flotrack! I wasn't going to put together a Coffee Talk today, mainly due to the fact that I thought (1) you needed a caffeine break and (2) I was tired and fell asleep sitting on the couch with my laptop on lap. I think some sort of divine intervention happened last night because I woke up this morning to find my computer completely intact. Praise the fact that I don't move around much in my sleep.

And now the "news"


Galen Rupp will / will not break the American 5k record - Flotrack

Everyone's in Boston and I'm just sitting here trying to convince myself one way or the other if Rupp will run the record. I probably spent about an hour writing nonsensical things on white boards and talking to myself out loud. I felt like Jack Nicholson in The Shining, except without the whole murder part.



"I told him I don't trust people from Canada because they are usually quacks." If you can't trust a Canadian, who can you trust?



Does that make the situation better or worse? I can't tell.



Shots fired.



The race website crashed, so they decided to turn the registration into a lottery. Imagine if healthcare.gov did that?
