Winter can't come soon enough...

... and here's why, from mid December to the first of February there are 8 (count 'em 8!) runs/races (note: races listed in red are unconfirmed with dates based on last year's runnings)...

  • 12/20 - Pig Tails Flat Ass 50K - Free!*
  • 12/21 - Tiger Dumb Ass 50K - Free!
  • 12/31 - Last Chance Marathon - Free!
  • 1/3 - Western Washington Fat Ass (50K) - Free!
  • 1/10 - Bridal Trails 50K - $25
  • 1/17 - Capitol Peaks Mega Fat Ass (34 miles) - $3!
  • 1/24 - Pigtails Run (50K) - Free!*
  • 2/1 - Lord Hill Trail Run (50K) - Free!
* - donation of 2 can of chicken noodle soup, one for eating, one for the food shelf

...so, hypothetically, if I/you were to run them all, I/you would run ~397K (or ~246.7 miles) for only $28 and 4 cans of soup!

(And that list doesn't even include the Orcas Island Fat Ass on 2/15)

Seriously... summer days, GO AWAY!

I think this is why it's easy to hit 13 marathons/ultras in 12 weeks for 7 stars during the winter than any other season. Plus, the price is always better.
