As always, I am Ashamed to say nothing....

In the event that you are interested, I have spontaneously set up a team.

If you would like to Run Blue with The Internet in Chicago - we now have a team

See what I did there - if that link doesn’t work - someone tell me.

REFER is the code to waive the 25 bucks to join the team. 

All Internet who are running Chicago and would like to run DetermiNation are welcome!  There is a tent, where we can all meet morning of - with private gear check, beer, breakfast and after race food, and all sorts of things you forget to bring and otherwise would be fucked if you didn’t have - like sunblock and body glide. 

We will all march out together with the other runners to the start area, and then we go off to our own corrals or find other internet people.  

For your friends and family, they have a great spectator spot, and support for them because having your family run a race is hard on people.  Post event - there are massages and beer and fun and crying and happiness. 

These folks couldn’t be nicer or more supportive - they have cheerleaders looking for you to encourage you at every single mile - even the miles that are fuckers and hateful like 14-18.  Their goal is to get you across the finish line - and they do it with a lot of style, caring and concern. 

And you get to fuck cancer.

I kind of want to work there.  Mostly because I am already married and I can’t marry an organization anyway. 

EDIT:  The commitment to DetermiNation is that you raise $950 by a certain date, if you do not, they charge the difference between what you raise and the $950 on your credit card.  That is scary. I know, I was scared.  But I promise to help anyone who joins the team get to their goal. If you have any questions - just let me know.
