Whiteface Mountain Uphill Races
Got an email this morning asking if I wanted to race this... politely declined the offer.

"The course allows you to climb 3,500 feet up the scenic Whiteface Mountain Veterans Memorial Highway to the top of New York's 5th highest peak for a 360 degree panoramic view of the Adirondacks, New England and Canada."

Sounds like fun. To think about. I'm not sure I'd want to watch it, unless I could be there with a piece of pie.
