Barking Mad To Run

    Curious what the charge is for an event that doles out a nifty looking medal like that, and how much of that goes to Tony Romo!

     

    Though the idea sounds great, running into stadiums cannot be both deceiving and tricky.  Take Comerica Park for instance, it seemed as if it took forever to run around the stadium, and the ramp down onto the field was a quad shredder!

     

    Good stuff!

     

    None of it goes to him. It goes to the doc who keeps on fixing his ribs... Wink

      It was $35, $45 & $55 race day. It benefited The Salvation Army. They had a party afterwards with free beer and a band but I didn't stick around for it. The medal weighs a ton. There were/are 12 of these around the country.

       

      The ramp going down wasn't too bad. There's another ramp that weaves back and fourth a few tames that would have been brutal. Biggest surprise was hitting the field, the end zone felt kind of spongy.

       

      Pushing stage pieces up the ramp is a bitch though.
