In the presence of greatness

I'm hoping some of his ability rubbed off onto me.

I got to the PDR expo at the best time -- Ryan Hall was meeting and greeting for a short time, and there were only a few people in line when I spotted him. I joked with him a little, and he asked how I'm feeling about Sunday and we talked about training for a minute. He signed my race shirt and a poster, and was really, really nice.

I hope he wins the race.

I hope, by just having been in his close presence, that I win my race.
