Who else is going Panther, Mr. Velocity, Lucididee, Casino Runner?? Give me some motivation to go!!

I'm not gonna make it. I'll be in Virginia that weekend.

also gonna be in Richmond Thursday and Friday this week. Exhaustion is setting in....

I don't get it, how come when compared to the NYC Run, the entry fee for this run is less, and the prizes are more?? Is it just because it costs more to rent out the marina in NYC? I'm not sure if I'm gonna make it, I blew a drive this past weekend and don't know if I'll get it back by then.

It doesn't look like we making it. Have a function to attend.

What sucks is the AC run is that weekend, as well as Lake Champlain.

I'm going .............
