I did it.
I'm sure many others have been there at one point or another.
I signed up for a race.
That might be a Kids race.
So.
Let's view the registered participants.
What's that?
You don't see me?
Oh.
I looked at the participants before I clicked SUBMIT.
And since I got scared that it might be a Kids race, I opted OUT of displaying my name.
:-)
Now.
This is my hometown.
A 1-mile race ahead of the annual x-mas parade.
I do not believe this 1-mile race is held annually. Might be the inaugural?
Well.
Who's registered?
Again. My hometown.
I don't know any of these people!
And there's a bunch of kids!
Full disclosure.
Fine.
I do know OF one person.
Our 28 year old mayor.
Fresh off a DUI conviction. Sweet!
What to do then?
Bring one of my kids along? And not race it?
Try to knock out a 5:30 mile?
But veer into the crowd if it looks completely uncool?
Ah, decisions.
Guess we'll find out on race day!

Ha! I say go for the 5:30!
and really? your Mayor got a DUI? sounds about right : )
You never fail to crack me up. I say run it... but dressed a reindeer w/jingles bells, of course. Extra credit for a working red-bulb nose (your headlamp has a red-light setting like mine, right? set to "flashing" for added bling). Full face or eye mask required to disguise your shame, er... I mean, your identity. And please, choose an appropriate pace time based on the race crowd's age & reception? Sheesh.
I'm with Molly: gun for a 5:30! Make sure you pull out a Flash or Captain America costume, though, or some kid might cry.
So...what did you find out?
