Do you ever get the feeling your running is becoming less of a hobby and more of an obsession?
I’m starting to have that feeling.
Registration for the Army Ten Miler opened at 12:01 Wednesday morning. Yes, that’s right, just after midnight. No, no, no, I didn’t stay up to register. I get up for work at 5:30. Staying up past midnight is just not in the cards.
What I did was even more ridiculous.
I set an alarm for midnight.
That’s right. I went to bed around 10, then woke up 2 hours later to register for a race. Because of the crush of people trying to register, it took almost half an hour, which sounds like one of the shorter times. There was plenty of frustration, but I was patient and ultimately got in.
Of course, when I woke up at 5:30 the next morning, there were still about 10,000 spots open.
But I’m the sort who would rather be safe than sorry. So I will be there. Will you?
Totally something I would do. And definitely better safe than sorry!
