    It'll be good to see you again. My friend from AL will be there, and I'm hoping I can convince my brother-in-law and sis-in-law, Red Spade, to squeeze out a nickle and sign up as well. Those two have only run Jennings before (but doing Mid-Ohio next week), so the back straight ought to wake them up pretty well. :rawk:

    You are a brave, brave man. I don't even go to the gym the day before riding on the truck unless it's to run or something really light.

    I avoided doing the Peachtree this year so I wouldn't be thrashed on the track.

    There are a bunch of obstacles and whatnot, but it is only a 5k basically so I should be ok. Usually it takes a few laps to shake the normal lifting sore out of me, but then I'm fine.

    Wait, the Rugged Maniac is basically only a 5K? I'd be fine with doing a 5K the day before a track day, but the name "Rugged Maniac?" Sounds more like SEAL training than a 5K. :fear:

    No joke. I've got bodywork to mount and paint and can't start until the 12th at the earliest. Maybe not until the 13th.
