Cool folks from Clintonville (mostly) sharing information and smacktalk about upcoming running events.
And occasionally meeting for a beer.

Comments are for sissies
If you have tried to comment on any of these posts, they do not seem to be working quite right. So, make a post. You are all authors.
Beat the Heat 2

Waiver and Release
Have you all read the waiver you must bring with you on Saturday?
#2. "I understand that the Warrior Dash presents extreme obstacles including, but not limited to, fire, mud pits, cargo climbs, junk cars, and steep hills." (Astrid, is Prince John aware of this?)
#6. "I agree to obey all civil and criminal laws at all times." (Hear that, Jorundr?)
#15. "I understand that some of the obstacles may go through water that has not been tested for chemicals or disease." (Gross! Will the warrior queen go in there?)
#17. "I agree not to enter or dive into the mud pit head first." (Duh. Someone tell Dunkr.)
Moral: Don't forget your waivers, folks.

Who and what?
Most folks will place a bet to see who will win. Not us. We want to bet on who will be injured and what body part they will injure.
A conversation took place between two or three unnamed persons and it went something like this: "I guess its too late to take odds on Hagar." "Duh. Remind me not to cross Helga, wife of Hagar, while she's wielding her sword." "My money's on Helga C and her ankle." "Nah - too obvious. You might as well bet on Igor's knee. I'm thinking Dunkr and his ego!" "As long as he finishes before the warrior princess he'll be happy." "It's Warrior QUEEN." "Should we be thinking about Astrid?" "Probably not, but I'm pretty sure her Prince John doesn't run....that might be the money bet; but that could Change." "Jorundr Madgoat was boasting about his physical prowess today. Think he'll make it through unscathed?" "He's got a better chance than Olaf!" "Olaf only wants the hat, anyway." (To which Olaf exclaimed, "Hey! I want a medal, too!")
So - wondering who Jorundr is? He probably is, too. The not-so-innocent bystander and I plugged in a little info about our friend JH at http://www.thequarter.org/Media/VikingName.php. Check it out, have fun, and let's all get together at the Warrior Queen's house for a beer and some strategizing real soon.

Fire Fire Fire
Is that burning hair that I smell? Do running shorts come treated for fire resistance? ...hmmm.... Maybe I'll wear my pajamas...I know... I'll wear wool shorts or a kilt. At least they won't melt and will be easier for the EMTs to remove!

Hagar is out.
The rumors are true. Hagar is out with a broken knee cap...still. My new partner is niece Katie who attends Ohio University. She's well trained in the 'party' area, but might run out of wind mid-way through the race. I should be able to keep up with her.
