I'm posting this information for two reasons. One, so you can start praying for me now. Two, to ensure Trent also signs up to be my companion in suffering.

I just signed up and paid for the Eugene Marathon (April 29) and the PCT 50K (July 28).

My goals are not lofty. I hope to finish the marathon in under 4:15 and I hope to finish the 50K.

I'm also going to take this opportunity to thank my wife in advance for taking such good care of me.

makes me sad about my injuries but excited to support you! I'm in as captain of the support team as long as you give me a varsity support team shirt or something (just call me "waterboy").

Wow. I don't think I remember hearing you say "50K." Are you sure that is safe??? :)

- -I think a marathon is 26 miles plus a few hundred yards. i would do that if I could drive. The 50k would mean obtaining a room overnight. Wish you well on your endeavor. Does mattie get to go, or would that be cruelty to animals? grandpa field
