Work's been pretty crazy for the past little while so I haven't been following the marathon very closely. I understand Dan is talking about making it an annual thing now. So next year perhaps... My wife winced when I told her about the marathon. But we'll deal with that when the time comes .

In any case, congrat on the marathon. Much higher the numbers we talked about last year. Great Job!

By the way, any thought on pure glide plus deadband up hill vs. backing off on uphill to charge the battery plus using EV to minimize the number of ICE startup? I find the latter to be critical in cold weather, but it's not nearly as clear cut in summer. Perhaps I should look into getting one of those nifty scanners...

Andy
