Jure Robic (RAAM) Passes Through OhioToday we are suppose to arrive to the fnish according to the original plan. Storms, wind and floods stoped us. We still have almost 500 miles to go. ur advantage on the road is around 3h 30min. To get more precise result we have to add time credit and deduct penaltie. Now that even Gulewitz got time credit for being stoped at the flood is the whole time thing even more complicated. According to my assumption, we have around 4h 30min lead and that lead is hard to overcome if we continue as usual. The race is still long and anything can happen. The winner will be known on friday morning. March 5, 2009

I didn’t want to be out there just getting the ball back in.” That was what Lindsay Davenport said when she won the women’s draw at the U.S. Open back in 1998. The same spirit might seem to apply to Luka Gregorc, who competed last week at the Delray Beach International Tennis Championships. February 22, 2009
