lane 6 bargain

i called Bobby at Rinconada Masters to register for 1650 fly. Here is how our conversation went:

Bubbles: Is 45 minute cut off hard? Do you pull people out if they are not done?

Bobby: Well, we used to. But lately, there are a lot of 80 and 90 year olds that do the race. They need a few more minutes to finish. So, we relaxed the cut off for them if they are close to being done.

Bubbles: Will you relax the cut off for a 33 year old?

Bobby: hmmm ok, as long as you are close to being done at 45 minutes.

Sigh!
