It's scramble time...

Many apologies for not posting since Sunday, as paulmerca.blogspot.com is in scramble mode trying to get things ready for our coverage of the IAAF World Track & Field Championships in Berlin, Germany.

Our itinerary on getaway day takes us to Minneapolis, where I will meet up with "Professor Marathon", Sean Hartnett.

Our journey takes us to Amsterdam, then the short flight from there to Berlin, where we land Thursday afternoon.

Then it's scramble time all over again, as we dash to obtain our credentials, then check in to the apartment that we've rented for the duration of the championships.

It's our hope to give you loyal readers the kind of coverage you've come to expect from this site over the last two years.

We'll have a special .pdf file for you when we arrive in Berlin that you can print and have by your side while watching on NBC, Universal Sports, Versus, UniversalSports.com, and on CBC, similar to the viewer's guide from last year's Olympics in Beijing.

See you on the other side of the Atlantic!
