Ben Great run. The name came to me two minutes after we spoke! Tim Buckley!! Check out Song to the Siren.

Yes, Jeff Buckley it is. I will check out that song. Thanks and good luck with Berlin!

Did your article originally have your finishing position and I completely missed it, or have you since updated it? ;)

Ben Melby said...

I updated it since the official results came up. Tough field this year; I thought I would make top 30!

Ah yes. Jeff is Tim's son!! Both died tragically young.
