I'll holler Montigue next time and hope for the best.

I totally enjoyed the Half Marathon. The weather was perfect and the people were great. I probably heard "someone" call my name during the event, but the name Job is not the ideal "hear somebody calling you" name. I sometimes think I hear a branch cracking and falling from a nearby tree, a trunk lid closing, or neighborhood small arms fire when it's really a good person calling my name. I really should be named Alexander, Horatio or Sok-e-tu-mi so that when someone calls me, I know they mean ME. Next time, call me by my adoptive name Montigeu when you pass by, and I will call you Al. :) Dan -

I meant to tell you that I ran by you during the Lincoln Memorial Half Marathon. I called your name but you didn't hear me. Either that, or you pretended that you didn't hear me, which people often do, my kids especially. Anyway, on behalf of the 900 or so runners, thanks for volunteering. Dan Job,
