Wild Idaho 50 mile & 50k race registration opens

What exactly is a WIFMER or a WIFKER? Don't feel bad, I didn't know either until I read the website. Turns out it's a pair of USA Track & Field sanctioned ultra running trail races in Idaho. Here's the announcement from race director Ben Blessing:

Hey everyone, registration for my inaugural event, the WIFMER & WIFKER, opens at midnight. Exciting hardcore new race(s) a 2 hour drive north from Boise. 12,600 ft of gain for the 50 miler, 9,600 for the 50K. My dad will be cooking food after the race, which will hopefully sell the race after you've tasted it. Unique finisher awards for everyone. Race website is http://www.runwildidaho.com. Race registration is at http://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=6195. I hope to see many of the Northwest crew out there. Happy Trails!
