Heps Season

Time: none
Distance: none
Gym: nope

Taking the day off.

In other news, today is Heps at Harvard's Gordon Indoor Track. Heps was always a great time of the year mostly because I would get my tri-annual haircut. I would usually chop the locks thrice per year that would coincide with the league championships in cross-country, indoor and outdoor. The Brown squad is not going to win this year but that doesn't mean we can have a little fun while following the coverage on www.hepstrack.com. Here are some over/unders I put together:

• Vegas maintains that the over/under is still at 33 points.
• The over/under for the 4x400 is at 3:21 if they run one. These aren't the days when D-Money (aka Dallas) could anchor in 47.
• The over/under for the top Brown guy in the 5k is 14:39.89 b/c that's what Kim Smith ran yesterday at the Armory. (Remember that race is often tactical).
• The over/under for the number of guys making the finals and not scoring is 4.
• The over/under the the DMR is 10:08.

Also, the USATF Indoor Championships are being held in Boston at the Reggie Lewis Center and I believe the New England Indoor Championships are also taking place at Boston University. Big weekend of racing up in Beantown.
