HP05 is in!!

Well, the past 2 days have been fun! Registration for the Chesapeake Bay 4.4 mile swim was yesterday at 10:00 am. HP05 was ready to go, type away her info and get into the race. Last year it filled up in 45 minutes so she knew she had to be ready. HP05 deals with the time delay pages, constant refreshing of the page, and finally sees the “Race Confirmation” page. She prints it out and is super excited she got in. Then she checks the list and IS NOT ON THERE!!! After a few phone calls, HP05 learned she was ‘on the buffer’. The race had hit capacity in 18 minutes, 650 swimmers, but about 50 people (HP05 included) had snuck in before the system stopped accepting swimmers. Sweet! So after e-mails, more phone calls, and a lot of help from the race coordinators, HP05 is now on the Entry List and will be swimming 4.4 miles on June 11th. YAY!!!

My question for everyone, who wants to spend a day at the beach???
