Personal:

I have five cute kids. And I have some rockin short green racing shorts- I wear them mainly because it embarrasses my wife so much. I like ultimate frisbee, trail running, reading, and cheering for the Denver Broncos! And I have the absolute best wife in the world. And I used to run for the now-disbanded national Team Pearl Izumi- Ultra!

I saw your comment about the linkedin button and thought the same thing. Twitter and Facebook maybe, but I don't see any overlap with the FRB and linkein.

One of my favorite things about FRB is the lack of auto-integration with social networks.

I'm with you guys, esp. Jake. I like my FRB simple and social-network free. Especially LinkedIn, which I've never, ever used. If I don't share runs with my facebook friends, I sure won't share them with professional friends.

Jon- you going to put in for Hardrock?

I put a comment on Sasha's blog, again. Maybe a bunch of us can comment and convince him to remove it or at least make it optional.

From Jon on Wed, Aug 21, 2013 at 20:43:57 from 107.203.52.135

Cam- I don't have a qualifier recently. 3 years, in fact, since the Bear 100. And Pinhoti in Nov is not a qualifier. So no, I guess not. If I did have a qualifier, I would, though. Might as well- your odds are so low, you gotta apply every year.
