Yardstick for Measuring Crazy

Is there such a thing? If so, I would like to measure up this scenario:

1. Flying to Alaska to visit your sister
2. Signing up for a lottery for a much sought-after 5K that takes place during your visit
3. Signing up for a lottery for a much sought-after 5K that takes place during your visit and involves running up and down a mountain
4. Signing up for a lottery for a much sought-after 5K that takes place during your visit and that involves running up and down a mountain where the race pictures look like this:

5. Signing up for a lottery for a much sought-after 5K that takes place during your visit, that involves running up and down a mountain, has crazy race pictures, and has a race course that includes the words treacherous, caution, steep slopes, danger or dangerous (x 6!), and an arrow pointing to the hospital:

*Things to consider: The girl signing up for this race likes to think she is pretty freakin' tough. This same girl sometimes gets scared running across bridges.

Sooo...

I bet you guessed this girl is me. Tickets to Alaska have been purchased! Lottery has been entered!

I find out in April if I have been given a spot. Do I hope to get in or pray that I don't?

The anticipation builds...
