One of the lucky ones

Today I was super productive and this happened


So happy that I got registered


So confused why the entire experience was super difficult and stressful and how the entire registration process is shut down with 15,000 slots left until further notice because active.com couldn't handle it


Isn't this one of the largest marathons in the world in a world class city? I am confused. Where they just unprepared for the demand? 

I may be new to this whole marathon scene but I am pretty sure this is one of the big ones.

For those of you still waiting, I hope you can register soon!


And since I have to get up progressively earlier to run my progressively longer runs for Wisconsin marathon training this is my life now:

  3. I was thankful for the drama, it gave me something to read about on Facebook.

    Congrats on getting in, I hope to run that someday, but not in 2013!
