N laces up her tennis shoes to participate in the Mayors Run, a 1-mile lap around the State Capitol, this Saturday. The event is habitually plagued by torrential downpours. Having drip-dried a couple of years ago, I thought I’d log onto the Weather Channel's website and scope out the weekend forecast. Be prepared. Pack an umbrella if I needed one.
I logged on by entering my zip code. Scanned Saturday's weather nutshell: temperatures and the chance of precipitation, etc. Looking more closely at the screen I noticed a link to something identified as “Race Day Outlook”.
Wow! I thought, Web-advertising sure has evolved. That's exactly what I was looking for! How handy to have a link for runners directly from this site.
Bedazzled by the accuracy of the Weather Channel’s on-line marketing agent, I clicked on the Race Day Outlook. The screen loaded. My bedazzlement dissolved into giggles as I scanned a detailed list of NASCAR events, race locations, and (based on the forecast) the odds of any rain delay.
