Holy baloney you guys are QUICK!

I think hubby and me are in. Let me talk to him and get back with you.

Personally I like the Make-a-Wish idea, or the other one... Give the World or whatever it's called... NaCler you know what I'm talking about. Would also be nice to donate to Red Cross for disaster relief. Just a thought.

Anyhoo, since I'm more on the "cheer / walk" end of the spectrum, I'll still say I'm in, because all of you people who are crazy runners will need moral support.

BTW is anyone running the Indianapolis 500 Festival Mini Marathon this weekend? My best friend and another former colleague are. I could try and cheer ya on.

Alright the new Facebook page has been created. It is still brand new and very basic, so don't judge me. Please search for Subsonic Radio Running Club and like the page. That way we can keep you all updated on what is going on. Please remember we also have a Twitter account and email.

Looks good NaCler! And I was proud to be the second person to like the page ~ probably the only time I will come in second in something related to running

Can I be an overseas member?
Hopefully it might help me with my own return to fitness

They better not be leaving out the overseas members or THERE WILL BE TROUBLE.

[NaCler]

You know we were counting on our overseas friends to be a part of his group!

Count me in! I was planning to run the Princess Half next year with some friends, and then maybe get to the Expedition Everest Challenge in 2015.

[MmeLeota]

I think this is a fantastic idea!
I already liked the FB page...I'll follow on Twitter as soon as I log back on.

We may not be runners, but I am hoping to at least be able to walk the 5K in 2015...and definitely cheer on the runners! We got to do that this past weekend, actually. Our friend's brother ran his first ever marathon and this was the first time I truly stood on the sidelines and cheered. The feeling of encouraging complete strangers and receiving their appreciation (whether in a smile, a nod or even a few "thank you"s) was very emotional.
...yep, I'm a sap....

I like the idea of a Cancer related charity or Make a Wish because I have had family touched by both (sorry if that sounds selfish, I'm not trying to be)...but personally, it doesn't matter to me which charity we would raise $$$ for.

I'm just starting back with running after a 6 year hiatus. I feel like I'm starting from scratch. Anyone have any advice for this relative newbie???

I am no expert but am in a similar boat after a four year absence and three knee operations.
I have chosen to start off with a bit of walking 2 to 3 miles 3 or 4 times a week. Been doing this for a month now and can feel some benefit so will be mixing it with some short runs in the coming weeks.
If your a previous runner you will soon get back into things and you have the experience to help you.
Good Luck

It's so good to hear people "getting back into it" It's never too late. Now, I can't imagine not working out.

I also took roughly a 6 year hiatus up until about 2 years ago. The key is to start off at a slower pace...walking is great like I am Sulley does. Don't set your expectations too high, otherwise you could end up with an injury. For myself, I started off with slower paced jogs 2-3 times a week. 30 mins at a time is suggested for beginners or rebooting yourself. I also did cross training with an indoor bike & P90X. Cross training is fantastic for allowing your running muscles time to recoup. It's important to keep going with exercise on your non-running days, so your body isn't in a constant state of struggle to work back up hill. Then before you know it, you'll be running faster longer distances. Lots of luck!

I used to run about 15 years ago but got back into it last year and will run my first 10K this Memorial Day. I would love to buy a Subsonic tech shirt to rep the website in other non-Disney races.

Hopefully I will be able to run my first Disney race next year. Maybe two Disney races!

Yay! Another vote for a tech shirt! Let's make them happen!

[Botts]

Will buy a shirt as soon as they are available!!

My first Disney race will be either the Disneyland Half, or Wine & Dine Half in 2014. Would love to do it this year, but saving up for a wedding. The Disney run will be the honeymoon!

This is a great opportunity to help bond the Subsonic community even further!

[NaCler]

The shirts are probably the next thing to work on. We'll get them going as soon as we can. Anyone out there artistic enough to create a logo for us to use?

Also, in case you haven't seen it, our Facebook page is up and running (no pun intended). Please like it and keep up with the latest news.
