I did it last year and I will say...I will never do it again. Not unless I had a really great idea that could win me the sweet tickets and VIP stuff Gumby got last year! It was too hot, I was too tired, and it was too early! I'll run my races when I get home.

If it would have started when it was supposed to it might not have been that bad. Hopefully they do it again.

this miiight be an awful decision... but I just signed up! I'm going to do the slow track though, after all think of all the walking we do in Centeroo in the high heat, another 3 miles around the Farm really won't be that much more. Plus, good cause!

Hopefully they start at 9am sharp. Needless to say a shower and sticking my feet in an ice bath afterwards will be The Greatest once I finish.

Looking forward to a scorching run around the farm like last year's race. It was hot as balls by the time they started around 9:15. The WTF? look of the patron's faces as we zoomed by was priceless!

I've been jogging the last few months, trying to get in shape for Roo. I had no idea they even did the Roo Run last year.. dunno how that got past me. Where is the starting point? It said so on the FB post, but I'm not familiar with where exactly they were talking about. Could anyone provide a land mark?
