[EIDXA] 2012 Marathon

[Tom Hise]

Joe, 
I had a lot of fun in the 2011 Marathon but I doubt I will participate two
years in a row.  Health problems really held me back in November and
December and I'd really like to get some strength/energy back before going
at it again.

Please let me know when I can do a final update on my 2011 numbers without
causing a problem.


73,

Tom - NC0O
