Hypothetically Speaking

… forget the fact that I can’t run more than 2-3 miles right now and that I haven’t sat on my bike since October. Hypothetically if I were interested in signing up for Wildflower, is it still possible to arrange for lodging and transportation this late in the game? Will it be a logistical nightmare trying to arrange to do this race this late or will it still be possible? I know a ton of you guys are heading out there to do the race, so I figured I’d ask the masses. My friend is wanting something on the calendar to kick start the race season. And seeing that I’ve got a 20 pound blanket of fat surrounding my mid-section that wasn’t there last fall, I probably should do the same.

Twenty pounds and trying to get enough base to do a 1/2 in seven weeks? It sounds pretty stupid, but it might just be the kick in the ass that I need to get going.

If you Wildflower goers can provide any details and/or comments on your experiences signing up and planning out this race, I’d appreciate any comments/thoughts that you might have. :)

  1. At least u have enough calories to get u through Wildflower.. :)

    Is it a race or for fun? Your aerobic base should be pretty deep for u to do it for fun w/o breaking something.

  2. Wildflower is wide open! It’s a camping thing and they are still accepting camping fees so sign up! You can do it. You won’t PR but you’ll be there and that’s what counts.

  3. Haha, Cliff! That’s a good one! :)

    I just saw that they’re still accepting camping fees, but my good friend of mine that wanted to go said he was out due to a neck injury.

    Sooooo… I guess it’ll have to be some other time. The rational side of me says it’s probably better that way anyway. I don’t want to hurt myself this early in the year.
