Wow — and I thought I had terrible ideas!
The registration link is now working! There is an in-person option (held Dec.7) or a virtual option (Dec.6-Dec.20).
All virtual entrants MUST provide a GPS race result after completing it (via Strava, Garmin, Etc.) and also video or photographic proof of all items purchased and eaten.

Now, get to training! (see you at Taco Bell)
Thank you!

Friends, I'm signing off till Monday. Until then, here's one more reminder that Dumb Runner works in a radically simple way:
Week after week I create and share original, entirely commercial-free stuff, and you decide what it's worth to you.
Wild, right?
Anyway, if you value what I do, and how I do it, take a minute now and help me keep it going! — Mark✌️

Went out to mark the course today. There’s minimal mud on the course. Sorry about that …
