Flashes of Panic

(Yeah, I’ve been busy.)

In the event that anyone cares, I thought it might be interesting to gather up my full Beijing output, excluding what I posted here. Roughly speaking, that’s three things: The IAAF “Competition Blog,” the Daily Summaries on the IAAF site, and seven or eight event reports for the Running USA Wire. And then there’s the 50km walk report.

• Day 1 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 2 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 3 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 4 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 5 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 6 Afternoon | Summary
• Day 7 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 8 Morning | Afternoon | Summary
• Day 9 Afternoon | Summary
• Day 10 Morning

50km Walk Event Report

Running USA Wire:

• Marathon Men | Women
• 10,000m Men | Women
• 5,000m Men | Women
• Steeplechase Men | Women

Leaving out the blog, I filed 14,793 words. (Editing probably changed that number.) When you include the blog, that number goes up by about 50,000 words to 64,901, which is about the length of a shortish novel. Given that it was written over about ten days, though, it would probably make for a pretty ugly novel.
