To early to start a countdown? - 41 days to Wifflefest

Let's be honest. Forty one days is a long time to do anything, and it is especially hard when you are waiting for something as amazing as the Justin Osborne All-American Wifflefest. It may be a little premature to start the countdown. I am told only truly strong people will be able to last that long, and read that many entries on a blog about wiffleball. There is a reason Christ was in the wilderness for forty days.... and that reason may or may not correlate to the height and depth of wiffleball enthusiam. I would like to stoke the wiffle-fire that burns in your heart.

The Justin Osborne All-American Wifflefest will be held on September 20th. It will contain all of its goodness that the first two years of Wifflefest have contained, and then some. We are still planning on having the announcing crew, homemade fields, food, and lots of fun. Feel free to invite any and all, as it should be a great time.

There are some new things that we are really excited about for Wifflefest. The biggest addition may be the first ever Wiffle Run for Fun - a run through the Martin Tree Farm trail system. We are deliberatly trying to have people experience more of the Tree Farm. It is sunch a beautiful place, and there is so much to do besides Wiffleball. The run will be short in nature, less than a 5K for sure. So, lace them up and be sure to show at 10:00 a.m.

I for one am excited about the Wiffle Run for Fun as I have never actually ran in an event before. Some may suggest that I have never really ran before. If one watches closely it seems as though I quickly loaf from point to point, with a slight hop involved somehow. It isn't the prettiest thing to watch, and doesn't lend itself to speed over long distances. We shall see how this unfolds. That is what the countdown is all about. Preparing our minds, bodies, and hearts for whatever may happen at Wifflefest.
