Sad news: due to torrential rain (although it's let up for a few) today and in the forecast, severe gusts, and temperatures in the high 30s and low 40s predicted for both Friday and Saturday, the Breast Cancer 3-Day in Philadelphia will now be a one-day only event, just the final leg from Fairmount Park to the Navy Yard.
We've got a LOT of sad, dejected people here having to make frantic hotel arrangements for the two nights they expected to spend in camp -- now it's a decision to hotel it and kill two days in the city OR just shrug and head home. If, like a lot of people, you flew here from the West Coast or Rockies or whatever, "heading home" ahead of schedule ain't gonna be cheap.
Like I said, sad news. Very frustrated people, but mostly we all understand. Now we're in a position of just praying like crazy for the bleak forecast on Sunday to improve -- or who knows, we may not get to walk at all. Wish us luck.
