For those sitting on the sidelines this weekend who'd like to follow my ride, I've listed by my SPOT and blog pages below. I invite other participants to do the same, thought I totally understand the reasons why you'd opt not to. My itinerary is as follows Thursday after work: travel to Salt...

In a moment of stupidity, I signed up for Steve Chalmer's Run What Ya Brung rally. When I saw what it was going to take to be competitive I got a queasy feeling in my stomach. With Gustav scheduled to hit the Gulf Coast states I feel down right sick. You can follow me on the rally via SPOT...
