Ottawa Citizen: Here
I’m here in Ottawa, gettin settled in for Sunday’s race. I made the drive up yesterday with super manager Dan and his three Kenyans. For some reason Josephat and Karanja sat in the back with their shirts off… I wish my camera hadn’t been in the trunk.
I’m going to run the marathon with my cell phone and put updates on the speedriver twitter site. You can follow at www.guelphrunning.com or http://twitter.com/speedriver (Thanks Moulton). 7am start!!

FLOAT ON 
Awesome…thanks Reid
and moultin if your reading this, make sure the twitter is in English for those of us who aren’t hard core runners 🙂
Good Luck
Run with your phone?! Are you kdding? It’s very generous of you to provide updates during the race but isn’t there anyone else that can help you with that?
…make sure you don’t trip on a curb or hit a telephone pole…. you’re kidding right?
You are kidding, right?
You should get in touch with Guinness. This will surely be a world record marathon run while tweeting.
Kick some arse Reid.
As for the telephone thing… make sure the telephone is a good, light weight one…like this:
I’d suggest this style … http://www.metropolismag.com/pov/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/zoolander.jpg
I must also add….you ARE kidding, right?
All the best Reid.
Nice job Reid – 2:17 and top Canadian in your first marathon. Now that you have one under your belt you should be ready to smoke one on a fast course like Berlin. Rest, recover and enjoy – hope to see you out on the roads/trails again soon. take care Chris
You are the man, way to go!!
Why would anyone think he was kidding?
Congratulations on the marathon! Me and my brothers (Aunt Jans Kids) are drinking whiskey and saw this. Congrats again!
Hey Reid, fantastic work, way to come back. Loved the numbers you provided related to the hours of cross training. Hope this sets you up for some great track races and future marathons.
