Heading to Steamboat this afternoon to relax a bit and acclimate to the altitude. I don't pretend to be in any kind of shape to win this thing, but would like to have a great first 50. Nora and I are fortunate enough to have friends living near Steamboat, so we'll be having some fun hanging out with them and helping to remodel one of their homes. There may even be time to do a bit of camping. I will miss TK (the kitty) and Pasha (Nora's mom is taking care of him - thanks Ruth). I fully expect some stealthy attacks from TK when we get back as he can be an ornery little cuss.
The race hasn't reached capacity yet and I think that based on reports from last year's Run Rabbit Run (www.steamboat50.com) it is well worth the entry. This promises to be a race of beautiful terrain and fantastic support. One note: there will be no gu/gel at the aid stations due to the problem of litter - all of the other regular aid will be provided. Come one come all!
