I knew it was this time:
So, I did it. Today I actually whipped out the Visa and paid the lady. I'm registered for the Pinhoti 100. I went to book a room and darn if the Jameson Inn isn't booked.
June, I hope you go, but if not, can I have your room :-)

Quotable
"You know what I call the guy who's DFL? A finisher!" Overhead at the back of the pack at Western States in 2009. It meant a lot more to me at the end than it did at mile 3 when I heard it.
"Hey were you DFL at Western States? So was I!" Some dude named Steve that I met at Umstead. He was DFL in 2006, I was DFL in 09.
Becky talking about the need for training partners, "It takes a village to run a 100-miler." June's reply, "Yeah, a village Idiot!" Priceless June Bug, priceless!
“We are not in a hurry anymore.” Roger to his crew as he entered Camp 10 Bear for the first time in the Vermont 100, Ouch! Darn evil doctors!
"Road Marathons Suck!" Words of wisdom from Professor ACG. Listen to him, he knows of what he speaks!
"It's slippery." From the dude lying on his back at the Alafia Trail 1/2, regarding the trail condition of the muddy downhill I was about to run. Thanks, now could you roll to the side.
"There is no Try, either Do or Do Not Do." Yoda. Ok, little man, that sounds like you have a Do-Do philosophy. There is no try may work for keeping the Dark Force at bay and saving an empire, but oh-great-wrinkled-one, we're talking about running 100 Miles. Now drop and give me 20, Mr. Jed-Eye!
To me, From an aid station volunteer at Ancient Oaks 100-mile trail run, "The difference is, You could do what I'm doing, I could never do what you are doing!"

Well it's about time then! I had read your post on the AT/Pinhoti decision and decided to nut up and enter. I'll be moving to Tampa in late august and intend to go for weekend long runs up at Croom. I'd definately like to do a few long or night runs with you're group of wise, "older than dirt" FUs. I'll be bothering you again in a month or so, just wanted to give you a heads up and connect with some Florida trail runners, there are far too few of us!

Pinoti?!?!? That's an easy one, it only goes through 1 state...you should come do the bear with lindsay and i...just ask yourself "what would dean do?"

I LOVE Zombieland. And I hope Chris does too, because that's what you feel like running the trails in August in Florida: You basically hope someone beats you to death with their banjo.
I'm well aware! As a native Sarasotan I'm used to it by now, and it's a great excuse to run slow!You've also got to love the way the heat keeps away the dayhike/fannypack tourists;winter brings the Ohioan hordes to Myakka and Oscar Scherer SP. Anyway, I'm young therefore I'm invincible.
Nice!
Chris, I saw you'd signed up. That's awesome! Keep up with the list and come up to Croom when you can and we'll destroy Pinhoti!

Is there a FL ultra list or something? Not sure what you meant by keep up with the list.
