TEAM IBU URGENT! Must register TODAY!

URGENT! URGENT! URGENT! URGENT!

Warrior Kate kindly pointed out to me just now that not only is registration for the Marine Corps Marathon open, the race is almost full.

So! If you want to run this year, you must sign up today.

Now, I realize this is before our first workout, but I would encourage you to sign up on faith alone -- you can pass your number to someone else if you don't end up running, or you can defer your registration to another year. So your registration fee is pretty safe.

Sorry for the extremely short notice. I had been thinking about our first workout (watch for an e-mail on that later today -- try to keep Sunday morning a little clear...), and not about registering for the race. In short, I took my eye off the ball, which is usually less trouble for the captain of a marathon team than a football team. But not today.

Register here:

and if you have any trouble, call here: 877.228.4881.

Please shoot me a note once you're registered. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

Tom

Interesting piece in the NYT...

Good piece on training for the marathon on the NYT blogs this morning: "Dry Run." Enjoy!

Team Ibu 2009

The mighty Ibuprofen Warriors are making another run at the Marine Corps Marathon this season. This blog will track our ups, downs, and, hopefully, some of our acrosses, which is actually the point of the exercise: forward motion.

Because this year's Warriors are from all over the map, please feel free to introduce yourself to your teammates in a new posting of your own.
