What's the Worst That Could Happen...


Primal Quest '09, huh? Yeah that's right...Randy sent a call my way yesterday saying, "Bad news, you're in." Now, I'm officially apart of Team South Dakota. Although it's important to note that I'm not the teams first choice. What is joy and elation for me is devastation and sadness for another. Dan, one of the original members, is dealing with one of my biggest fears. His wife has recently been diagnosed with brain cancer...because of this he has with drawn from the race. I grinned ear to ear when I got the call from Randy, but I can't help but feel terrible. But this will be my and the teams motivation. No matter how bad our feet hurt, no matter how hard the course is and no matter how hungry we get...our pain is short and much less painful than chemo or radiation.

Dan...I promise...I will have to be close to death before I think about throwing in the towel.
