I've Come to Talk with You Again.

Hey family.

This is my open invitation to anybody who wants to join me, Matt, and Hannah in registering for the Moab half-marathon. The race is March 18th and the lottery starts on November 15th. As I understand it, groups can register, and then either everyone’s in or everyone’s out. I think the registration fee is probably around $50 or so, but that is an absolute wild guess; I need to check on that.

I’ve been meaning to do this race for the past few years and I just never have—now this could be our last spring in Utah, for awhile anyway—and I really don't expect that I'll ever do a full marathon—so here goes. There’s also a 5-mile run going on at the same time.

Anyway, I’m not especially expecting anybody to drop what they’re doing and head out to Moab, but I thought I’d invite anyway! It should be fun, as long as we get in and I make myself train beforehand. I am feeling motivated today, and I've started a schedule, and I have been running regularly since we got back from Euro-land. I just need to keep that up, I guess!

Happy November.

Okay, cool! I e-mailed the race director person to get more details but haven't heard back yet. I'll let you know when I do.

Lovely! Well I'll post again when the registration info (costs, etc.) is up, which apparently is going to be this Friday.
