Are you a runner?

This weekend I was not a runner, but instead I was part of the support crew. We got on the train about 7 am along with the rest of the city. I noticed this runner sporting her orange d-tag timing chips from previous races on her backpack. She reminded me of those kids in high school who were alpine skiers. They created a chain out of their lift tickets so you could tell just how many times they had gone skiing and to which exotic places. This is just a long way of saying: the d-tags are disposable timing chips. Dispose of them. Don't display them.
