I wasn’t going to give you a recap on the Cross du Mont Blanc race. It was that bad. I didn’t want you looking up my race results and thinking, “Really? And this girl thinks she’s an expert on food and fitness.” But then, after relaying the full synopsis to my brother, I realized that the races you struggle through are the ones whose stories are the most inspiring. And since I told you about my hill training for this 23 km mountainous run in the French Alps, I thought it was only fair to share the end results with you.

Sit Out Period - Frequently Asked Questions
Question: My son transferred and was granted the Sit Out Period in the sports of football, wrestling and track and field. What date will be he eligible to compete?
Sit Out Period - Frequently Asked Questions
Answer:
For the 2012-13 school year, the student would actually have three eligibility dates as they would have a Sit Out Period for each of the three sports.
Football: October 1
Wrestling: December 31
Spring: April 1
[CIF State Bylaw 207.B.5.b(viii)]
Note: If the student transfers after their new school’s first contest, then their actual start date would be determined by the local CIF-Section Office.
Question: My daughter transferred and was granted the Sit Out Period. May she practice with the varsity team during this time period?
Answer:
Yes. The student may participate in practices with the varsity team during the Sit Out Period.
Question: My daughter transferred and was granted the Sit Out Period for the sports of volleyball and softball. May she play on a sub-varsity team during this time?
Answer:
No. If the student wishes to compete at the varsity level in either volleyball or softball, she may not compete at the sub-varsity level in those two sports. If she does compete at the sub-varsity level during the Sit Out Period in either of those two sports, she will be ineligible for varsity competition in that sport (including playoffs) for the remainder of that school year. [CIF State Bylaw 207.B.5.b(vii)]

New Hardrock 100 Lottery Procedures
In the midst of all of the indicators suggesting tremendous growth in the sport of ultramarathon running these days, there is perhaps none greater than the increase in the use of lotteries by race organizers to determine runner selection. And, of those race lotteries, the two that have seen the greatest increase in traffic in the past five years are the lotteries for the Western States 100 and the Hardrock 100. That is why it is noteworthy that, just last week, the Hardrock 100 Board of Directors announced significant changes in their lottery selection procedures, which will go into effect with the 2013 run.
