Yer he loves it, 20+ hours running takes a while though to see true potential without being too lean and keen. He just bought the bigger brother of it couple of days ago.

The date is not the only reason for this being a bad decision .
I can only think of one reason for choosing this time of year
and that is the holidays but there MANY reasons why it
shouldnt be at this time . There are just to many to list
but a better time fo the year is Easter .

I have competed in to many sports over the years and they
ALL have there Nationals during the Easter break . It is
the best time of the year , the weather is mostly fine , its
not to hot , accom can be costly at that time but so
is christmas .

Most of all I think that the Easter brake is long enough
for people to get there and its a time of the year where
people are not committed .
