I was so hoping for 2 swims from Alcatraz this summer but alas, I did not get picked in the lottery for the Escape from Alcatraz – WAH! What’s worse is I told a friend to sign up and she did and she got picked and she registered (for $320!) and now I can’t do it with her. Gulp. I will still be swimming with FeLady and her husband at Sharkfest so all is not lost.
Oh – and I DID sign up for this:
(Yay! I finally have a reason to run! hee hee… I’l bee running a 5K before that!)
So get your tutu (after getting your color approved by Ms. DPR) and get registered and get ready to rumble run!
Too bad about alcatraz. But you’ll have alot of fun at this race. Bring on the running.
nothing like a confirmed registration to get your motivation going- good news about the job too!
Sorry you didn’t make the Escape … but sheesh, I didn’t realize it was that expensive. That’s more than the full Vineman!
Sharkfest sounds very cool – when is it?
What? They didn’t select you for Alcatraz?! Those dirty dogs.
I’ve heard great things about the Bay to Breakers. Fab news that you are racing it.
Stay tuned…
Did you see where a group wants to change Alcatraz Island into a “Peace Center”? Aughhh! Let’s just ignore history- the fact that it was a prison is WHY people come to see it!!
(I doubt if anything will come of this as it’s Federal land and local people can’t just vote for what they want to do with the Island!)
Have fun at Bay to Breakers!
Sorry to hear you didn’t get in to Alcatraz tri, but maybe it just isn’t time yet…..!
I’ve always wanted to run Bay to Breakers! I’m jealous.
yes! fe-lady is right. you might not make it before it’s only opened to enlightened runners. this made news in australia (slow news week).
