2nd Annual G.M.S.T.D.C.T.P.A.F.R.T.P.S.P.

That is right: G.M.S.T.D.C.T.P.A.F.R.T.P.S.P.
This stands for:
GHIORSO-MIFFLIN SACRAMENTO THANKSGIVING DAY CELEBRITY TOXIC POTATO AWARENESS FUN RUN TO PREVENT SOLANINE POISONING

Did you know potatoes can be poisonous? If they are green they could contain harmful amounts of solanine, very dangerous.

Tomorrow morning, 12 brave souls will be running to raise awareness of the harms of green potatoes and solanine poisoning.

Here is our logo I designed. (I'll keep my day job, don't worry.)



Tomorrow I will post race results and pictures. And maybe even throw something in there about thankfullness. Possibly.

PS: Wondering what all this craziness is about? Reference: Season 4 (2007) Episode 1 of "The Office" and the Dunder-Mifflin Fun Run.
