Forget the PR, Mohican 50k

My good buddy, Rob, has coordinated a new race this year called "Forget the PR, Mohican 50k". Today, I found out that I'm able to run it after all!!

Long story short: I signed up for the race on the first day of registration, because I was so excited about it and failed to check my schedule, to make sure that I could actually run it; I got ahead of myself. A few weeks after I registered, I learned that the race date was the day after our check-in date at Disney World down in Orlando, Florida. That wasn't going to work. :( Well, when I got back from CodeMash this afternoon, Jennifer and I sat down and were just talking about everything and we decided that we couldn't really do the Orlando thing due to our finances, etc... As much as I hated the fact that we couldn't take the girls to Florida this summer and see Mickey, I was (secretly) excited to be able to run the race after all. :)

Rob, COUNT ME IN!! I can't wait to get my first ultra belt buckle!

Truly a bummer you and your family can't make it to Disney.

Regardless, Rob has ensured that we will have fun on April 19th.
