Well, I’m four days in to my training for Leadville, and something really bad happened when I tried to install a plugin.  The whole blog crashed, and I have neither the time nor patience to suss it out.

So, start with me tomorrow ladies and gents.  No more trying to gussy this thing up.  It will basically be a bare-bones blog of my journey to Leadville.  I’ll include my training and diet every day from now till then.

Also, if anyone out there is willing to help me, I could definitely use some donations/gifts to help get there.  I’ll probably go through a couple of pairs of shoes between now and then.  I definitely need to pay for airfare there and back, and probably a hotel room.  Food during training is another expense.

I will not be doing the Leadville 100 barefoot, or in Vibrams.  My feet took too much of a beating after the 20 miler I did last November, and now need recuperation time.  I’ll be wearing shoes.  But it’s still 10o miles.  In 24 hours (that’s my goal-time).

If you want to help someone to do something that seems totally insane, gift me at jleeger@gmail.com on PayPal.

Thanks!

Josh
