Howl at the Moon 8-Hour Registration

The Howl at the Moon registration opens Saturday, April 26. They will have both online and paper forms on their Kennekuk Road Runner web site. The race limit is 250 and it will close well before race day. This is one of the best timed events in the country. It was my first ultra in 2000 and I'm still coming back for more punishment in the August heat and humidity of central Illinois. I encourage you to run it, even if you've never done an ultra before...it's a great first ultra with little pressure. Who can't get more than a marathon distance in 8 hours? Even breaking 50K (31 miles) is very doable in 8 hours (on a pretty tame course).

For a little more about the event, see my previous post on March 18, 2008.
