    A 5 minute delay to allow corrections? You mean a 5-minute delay as the information travels through the series of tubes, right?

    It actually takes about 80ms to post your run to the blog. The 5 minutes is a built-in delay until sending in case you realize you got the date/distance/etc wrong and want to correct it before it is fixed in the blog firmament.

    Tubes are a myth perpetrated by the legislature to keep communism in check.
