[osg-users] This weekend is about to get crazy - I have 95 miles to run!

Hi.

Continuing the `running in real life` topic: yesterday I ran 20 km for
the first time, took me about 3 hours. I was totally drained. I wonder
how people make 95 miles (152 km).

Robert, what time did it take you to cover 71 miles?
