[loup garou]

If you want to watch the NYC marathon from my window, you need wmp9. Plug this in your Open URL:

mms://werk.dyndns.org:1055/marathon

Don't yell at me if it's blurry or goes down, I didn't have much time to set it up. I'll be taking better pictures as well...

Go down and hand out paper cups with what looks like water, but fill them with vodka.

I wonder if this guy, finally made it to NY. I last heard Friday that he had completed the first 5 of 7 marathons in 7 days.

Day 5 report.

No sound, sorry.

 

[jurzdevil]

[loup garou]

It'll be about 45 min-1hr before the mass starts by. Elite women should be passing soon. Wheelchair racers have passed by already.

Intel USB webcam + WM Encoder 9 + Windows Media Services 2003.

I seem to be limited to 5 connections, although I set it for Unlimited. :|

 

[SWScorch]

I wish I was running that 🙁

Yeah,. and keep an eye out for P Diddy. He says he wants to run 4:29; I'm betting he'll run around 5 hours.

EDIT: you can track his run with this page: http://www.ingnycmarathon.org/results/results.html just search for Sean Combs. So far he ran the first 10K in 52:30, with a mile pace of 8:30, and an estimated finish time of 3:42:46. I'm willing to bet fifty bucks he chokes before the 20 mile mark though.

For this he needs a 4,000 pound paintball cluster bomb.
