Track Adam tomorrow in Des Moines marathon

Our nephew, Adam Jerdee, will have a chip in his shoe when he runs in the Des Moines Marathon this Sunday. No. Not like having a pebble in your shoe, which would be a really annoying thing for someone running 26 miles.

The device will trigger a sensor every time he passes certain points during tomorrow's race. And, in turn, the sensor will trigger a program that will send you an email or text after he successfully completes another leg of the marathon.

So you can be a fan, and track Adam's progress from anywhere in the world. Amazing, yes, but we're getting used to this kind of thing, aren't we? What we have a hard time getting used to is Adam's amazing running prowess. Time and again he's competed in these events and shows no sign of slowing down.

You go, Adam! We're with you all the way!
