From the RD...
Monday December 24th, 2012 at 10:00 AM EST The Georgia Death Race will be opening up 50 more slots on a first come first serve basis. DO NOT EMAIL ME. I am not holding any spots or doing any special favors. I will warn you I have gotten 100 emails from folks wanting to get in. So if you are not ready right at 10 am you will most likely miss your chance. may the fastest clickers win. YOU MUST HAVE RUN AND COMPLETED AN OFFICIAL 50k RACE OR LONGER IN 2012. NO EXCEPTIONS!
Nobody leaves this place without singing the blues.
My 2013 races:
Sluice Box 100, Fairbanks, Alaska- June
Very low key, only the 2nd year. I volunteered to mark trail last year and definitely want to run it in 2013.
It will be my 4th attempt at a 100 and hopefully my 2nd finish.
Cascades Crest 100, Easton, Washington- August.
I tried this one last year and didn't make it to the finish line, quitting at around the 77/78 mile mark. Great race and beautiful course!
Excited to go back and determined to finish.
If things work out, this will be my 5th attempt at a 100 and 3rd finish.
2/2 Rocky (only pacing someone through 40 miles) - does that count?
3/15 Three Days of Syllamo - 50k
3/16 Three Days of Syllamo - 50 mile
Cascades Crest 100, Easton, Washington- August. I tried this one last year and didn't make it to the finish line, quitting at around the 77/78 mile mark.

Was it at the No Name aid station at mile 81? Or Mineral Creek at mile 81, or Mineral Creek at mile 73? I was working the No Name aid station, so that's why I'm wondering!
Edited: just looked up the results, and given your forum name I'm assuming you're the woman from Alaska. I remember you! So sorry you weren't able to continue on. (And not sure if you remember the guy who came in just after you who the sweeper also tried to pull. He pleaded with her, saying he was okay to continue on. Well, he didn't make the final cutoff either).

Anyone prepared to take on the updating of the race calendar? I simply don't have the time at the moment.

I actually was going to offer! I'm thinking the easiest way is to just start a new thread since that way I can edit the first page as people post their new races, correct?
Correct, and then get the PurdMan to sticky yours and unsticky his.
You are a star. Start your own, copy and paste by listings into yours, then I will sticky yours.
Cool beans. And I'll be sure to list the dates in the CORRECT way. This IS America, after all
