Mannie <my body shuts down in some of those nasty Asian big cities> When I was training for Boston, I had to do a long training run over the weekend. I was in Hong Kong in the summer - air was awful. I ran into Kowloon, got totally lost, then found my way out and decided to go up Victoria hill. The air just had too much crap in it that wasn't oxygen...ended up walking the last two miles. I think Bejing, Taipai and Seoul are the worst. It's wierd, I don't remember Saigon as being bad ...although I smoked back then. I don't know how those marathoners are going to do it - they'll have to work hard. Altair19
