MCM peeps, come in

After 10 agonizing minutes, I made it through and was able to sign up.

Yay! That was easy part, now I have to focus on actually doing it.

Re: MCM peeps, come in

  • I'm in, and my running buddies are in too! Thankfully everyone survived the active.com crash. But at least you've already gotten some practice at handling a difficult situation Wink

    Good luck training!

  • I did not register, but I just read it's already 50% full and registration hasn't even been open for a full hour yet! 

    the race has really gotten popular!

  • I predicted MCM selling out in 4 hours, but I think that is going to be overly conservative.

  • 96% full @ 4:10

    sold out before 4:50pm

  • Good luck to all of you! DD and I will be out there cheering (for DH's first marathon) so we'll give a few extra shout outs for all of you!
  • I'm so excited! I had a slight moment of "oh no, what have I done" after I got the confirmation, then I got REALLY excited. I did panic a little when I saw that active.com had crashed since I was hovered in my rental car at an event site praising the Lord that I caught a Wi-Fi signal, and terrified it would drop at ANY moment... apparently this is a sign I am supposed to run this race!

  • I tried to register at 3:01pm and got freaked out by the Active.com crash! Thankfully, I was able to register at 3:20pm.  Quite a few of my friends didn't get in because they couldn't register immediately and thought, "I'll do this when I get home tonight."

    That sucks. I'm sure people will be selling bibs later on, once they decide they don't feel like running a marathon.

  • That was very stressful! I got in at about 3:15 and my brother who started this whole thing didn't let me know that he got in too. So I anxiously watched the guage go up and up with my credit card in hand in case I needed to register him.  He called me after it sold out to let me know he got in. Fricken jerk, I lost a year of my life with that stress!!

    Now on to training!!
