Sadly, THIS Idahoan will NOT be making the trip! This is the first National Championship in 18 years that I will have missed. Believe me when I tell you I am bummed and so much so that I don't even want to talk about it. It sucks when the reality is that you have to do the responsible thing and "mind the office" instead of going off for the weekend for intense competition, seeing old friends and huge fun. It just couldn't be arranged for this particular weekend. Normally I run an event here in my hometown on this weekend and I didn't plan it because I was going to be gone. Now I have neither... Good luck to everyone going and Michael and Tonya, I hope for a great turnout for Nationals! I really wanted to go too because I've never competed in Arkansas. I look forward to seeing the footage on ARMTV! (Thank goodness for that!)..or I would go out of my mind!
