s.a.d.

I currently just attempted to register for the Fargo Marathon.... As I was about ready to click the register button, I realized that this year's marathon is 2 weeks later than last year's... falling on Saturday, May 22nd... meaning that I will be in Guatemala during the run this year. My heart is sad and now I must determine what my next move is going to be. I basically have two options: A. run a race that follows the Lake Wobegon Trail on May 8th... but, this is a very small race that is only in its second year of existence. Option B: Run the Grandma's marathon in Duluth... but, this is on June 17th and would mean that I would have to try to run after having taken 12-15 days off while being in Guatemala, not to mention that contracting E. Coli like I did last year would put me completely out of the running... What to do, what to do.... suggestions?
