I am going to consider this, how long do you guess before it fills?

Each class is capped at 30 and you have up until the day of the event to register. I don't know how many have already signed up though, sorry. I'll looked on their Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/events/222616367797372/ but didn't find any information for our current class size.

Oh man. If you do this I may have to swing by with my camera to document the race since I'll be in the area :)

That would be really cool bigm141414, as "■Some, but not all, classes will have a photographer present. Photography is allowed, so ask a friend to come along and take pictures if you’d like. Spectator tickets are free, and there are no tickets." And I'm not sure how well a camera would last out there :)

It's actually not going to happen for me. I just talked to my wife about it and she brought up a good point that right now may is already clogged for us with the 10 mile run we're doing, a wedding, the Boston meet up, and we're considering moving during that time. I may consider doing the one in October though. Sucks, it looks awesome.

Well, my buddy that I am doing this one with and another buddy of ours are already considering doing another Goruck later this year. Maybe we'll see you then.
