At the end of a 12 hour work day on Friday, I got some really good news:
I’ll be running the 2012 Hood to Coast relay in Oregeon next August!

It’s 200 miles, it’s the 12,600 runners, it’s the world’s largest relay. It starts at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood and goes to Seaside, OR, on the coast.

Check out this documentary trailer about the race:

I’ll also be fundraising for the American Cancer Society – a cause that’s especially timely, given the loss of my stepdad to lung cancer last month.
Since I’ve never been west of Chicago, Joel & I plan to take the week after the race & have an epic road/camping/biking trip. Basically I want to go to as many National Parks as possible. And a whole lot of other things. Feel free to offer suggestions!
Only 176 days to go!
