196: no sleep 'till brooklyn

This is my wife and teammate Diane.
This is our teammate Laura Van Gilder.
This is Diane and Laura Van Gilder. (bad kat and wes in the background too)
Both Diane and Laura are short and blonde. Since Laura joined our team, Diane has been asked a number of times if she was Laura. Diane is Diane. Laura is Laura. Honest mistake.

Granogue is coming together quite well. Noodled around the course the other night, and dare I say, it was a lot of fun. Oh sure, it's hard as hell, technical and brutal, but it was damn fun. 432 pre-registered for the race. That and a mailbox full of emails for me to answer tonight all saying, "I missed registration. Will there be day of ?" Not making a judgment here but we had reg open for over a month. Just saying...


The DccoD has been working extra hard this year, Granogue should be lots of fun. Looking forward to Wiss too. I love that course, if nothing else it means that another successful Granogue race will be behind us.


look forward to seeing you all this weekend.

Please don't knock me over when you pass.


respect.

Thank you so much for all you do to put on Granogue. Race organizers never get thanked enough! Granogue is an awesome venue and you guys do an awesome job with it every year. I'm looking forward to seeing you Saturday!!

See you bright and early in the morning dude. My kid and I are staying in a motel in Pottstown (1/2 way between Gran. % the Wiss) for the weekend. He likes being away from home overnight (away from my wife's big mouth) almost as much as 'crossing I think. :-)
