Hey, I just wanted to thank you for this I'm still toying with the idea. If my body can do it, I want to. Pain is ok, I guess. It isn't exactly fun sometimes but finishing something is great! I'm websearching for the justification but I am SO there. Like 95% there.

I guess I always told people in cycling "if you can do 25, you can do 50", etc. Is it the same with running? I know that running is harsher and all but still. It seems like there is far more caution in running events than cycling.

Now. If I sign up for this, I have a choice of what to put on my bib. Do I do something like "idiot"?!
