I got it posted on youtube, just search Ryan Stratis and it should come up. Or look at what Rider just did, haha, thanks!
Yea if we are all going to start trying to make these things across the country when ever they happen we'll have to start staying in the same hotels and helping each other out with food definitely. I volunteer my car rental abilities seeing how you have to be 25 or older to get one, plus my GPS saves my life in foreign land, such as California!

You're welcome.
And I kind of am hoping there is one of these in maryland. Who knows, maybe if there is you all can come down to my city and we can all train together.

Tokyo is one of the oldest cities in the world and they don't have an airport of that size inside the city limits.. just no space.. LOL!! And there are other airports in the country you goof.. Just that most international flights end up there. I know every ANC person has to arrive there first to get anywhere. ...plus my GPS saves my life in foreign land, such as California! Dude.. nothing will save you in Philly traffic.. GPS might get you lost even worse LOL Still that's cool

And I know that's where every ANC person has arived. And I don't recall hearing of another Japanese Airport, Which is why I was joking "Is that the only one in the country?". I knew there had to be more in the country.

Yeah when you start getting directions for the Ben Franklin and you are still in Cottman.. it's time to redo the dang signs.. at least you aren't old enough to remember those stupid bird signs showing the direction of the bridges.. half the time you were trying to figure out which direction they were showing.. and they placement was ridiculous.. like showing Tacony Palmyra bridge.. and you are in the middle of West Philly...

Wow, great story. I'd probably go crazy on the guy that stole my things haha. It does seem a little inconvenient though to have to go through all of that stuff, and all you wanted to do was see how you would do on a course you wanted to run for a while. At least you learned plenty of valuable lessons from it. ;D

If one ever comes to the KC area... I'm there. Recently ran out of pocket change and with school and all it wasn't possible for me to attend this one. If it's a little closer, like at least Colorado, then I'm there.

If it does go country wide, it will probably go to Chicago. If so, I'm so there.

You guys need to know this: They ran the event in a parking lot. The course was high quality, but they ran it on a parking lot.
So please, scratch the idea from your minds that they would be running this inside a stadium.
