: PS Being invited to the world famous Tribeca
: Film festival which included a little bit of
: driving was a no brainer as far as my
: attendance went. It got better upon arrival
: because at the theater were Alan Steinfield,
: (Freds race coordinator), and it was packed
: with runners, sponsors, politicians and
: others who appeared in the film and from the
: early days of the NYRRC/NYC Marathon. The
: films director was there as was Amby
: Burfoot, he said he ran the race seen in the
: opening shot back in 1969. He was
: momentarily surprised to see me but quickly
: corrected himself and said, " but of
: course you are here", this was of
: course a darned big compliment from a true
: giant in our running world.
:
: Actually there was a Q and A session after
: the film and I shared my, "when I grow
: up I want to start one of these back at
: home" story and and it got a hearty
: round of applause. Oh well as for me
: pretending to be anything but what I am
: which includes working as hard as it takes
: to take running in Maine to a higher place,
: no matter who I piss off...well, it's all
: good!

: ahhh...that sir is a trade
: secret....laugh!....actually you already
: know the answer, but for a hint watch the
: clip from the movie again, especially the
: closing shot where Fred is pounding his
: shoulder with a strange massage ball springy
: gadget?? That silly, shit eating grin
: showing him just toying with the media, is a
: prime piece of your answer.... besides
: taking it to another level Fred taught us
: that growing up is way, way over rated.
