Restless in Rhode Island

Excitement!  Suspense!  The thrill of...waiting!  Over here at the Runs for Relief office (located at a mystery, hidden location somewhere between western North Carolina and the cold reaches of northern New Hampshire) we are making final preparations and generally bouncing around in excitement for our inaugural effort, three days from now!  Early on Monday morning, Jon and myself will begin running from the Mass/Rhode Island border, following the North South trail for ~78 miles to the coast, weaving along the western edge of Rhode Island.  We are not entirely sure what to expect, but we do know that we will have trail surfaces ranging from rocky singletrack to stretches of flat road running.  Throughout the day on Monday, our extremely gracious (read: dedicated and crazy) crew will be posting updates to our brand new Twitter account, so feel free to drop in and see how we're doing!  It promises to be a wild day for us, and a potentially entertaining day for you!

If you have not yet made a donation to the National Psoriasis Association in support of our efforts and wish to do so, you can visit our donation site here.  Combining online donations with physical ones, we have raised over $300 so far!  To all of you who have supported us thus far, in all ways, we thank you so much, and your support will be a large part of our mental fuel on Monday.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!  We'll see you on the other side, ready to roll.
