The World Race is going to be a journey. Until then, I have a decision to make and I need a little help.

As you may know, I have a beard. And it is not very intense and, for the most part, I keep it kempt. My plan is to shave my face the day before I leave for the World Race. 

(You might be thinking, “this can’t be that serious of a question Todd!” And you’re probably right, but I think it is a grand question.)

Herein lies the question. 

When I venture these eleven months, do I: 1. grow out my beard the whole time, which would make it longer than I have ever had it, or, 2. Keep it cut short and have no fun with it?

Please comment! I would really love to hear your thoughts on this. I will try to get back to you as soon as possible! Like I have been saying, this is One Extremely Serious Question.
