For anyone who is interested, there is still lots of room to register for the Run for the Toad. Just 438 registered right now and they are taking up to 1350 this year.
All the info is at their website
www.runforthetoad.com This is a great race -- more like a party than a race! Lots of fun, scenic, wonderful volunteers, lots of food and you get a great bag with the race name on it! This year they have switched back to the duffel bag style in a plum colour.
If you haven't done a lot of trail running, you can still do this one -- hill training is very important though!
