Sorry for the repetitive posts but I want to make sure we grow our group as much as we can. Next step tech shirts, then maybe some meet ups.
Is there any news on the tech shirt front? I have a half marathon in Houston next month, and I'd love to wear the Subsonic shirt while racing. I haven't been training nearly enough, but I have six weeks to whip myself in shape and am going to try like hell to get back down to 2:10ish.
Please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle until the ride comes to a full and complete stop. Thank you, and enjoy the rest of your day here at Walt Disney World.

Thanks for the support everyone. I wanted to make sure we had enough interest before making up any shirts but I think it may be time. We have a great logo thanks to Joe Fox. I was thinking about having some type of slogan on the back something along the lines of Running at Subsonic speed or something similar. Any suggestions?

Darn it. I promised my wife that since I signed up for the Dopey in January, I would not sign up and go down 2 months earlier for the Wine and Dine. Now you are making me think about how I can weasel out of that agreement.

You are right, I do want to, and I would make the trip without giving it a second thought if a) it was not sold out, and b) if I thought that it would not create family strife. We were just down there 4-5 weeks ago and will be there for a week in January so I had better be happy with that.

WOW.. major activity here. Man I hate being busy and not having time for the forums. Thanks you for all the congrats on my ToT race. I told John I am hooked. What a great experience!! I'm just mad I didn't sign up for the other runs in early 2014, as now they are all sold out. Bummer. I will be running the Everest Challenge in May, and the ToT in 2014, and all the Disney races in 2015. I am signed up for the Celebration 1/2 marathon on Jan 26th. Then I need to find a Feb event :)

Running the ToT was my first race in a while (HS) and first ever at that distance. The event was amazing. Crossing the finish line felt amazing, and quite emotional.

I will have to come over for the Wine and Dine and cheer everyone on. Need to get the SR Run Club shirt before then :)

Welcome to the club Rich! I can only assume that you felt the same thing I did after crossing the line of my first race (although mine was a lot shorter). That's why we are trying to plan for a large contingent of Subbers at the 2015 events as I think it may hook some others into being active. I'm going to try and get on the ball with those shirts.

As for that Feb event... Remember the Donna Half and Full are not too far from you. No pressure... :D

I too am eagerly waiting on the shirts for future races. I have a 10 miler in less than 2 weeks just outside of Nashville. I know the shirts won't be ready by then, but would love to have one for later. My dream goal is to run a Disney half marathon in 2015. What's everyone's favorite Disney half marathon? Disneyland or Disney World. I may go to either place for my dream race.

I think it might be time to dust off the treadmill. Remember the lady that hit our mailbox awhile back? Figment told me to watch for the school bus a few days ago when I went for my walk. I didn't have to worry about that but Mrs. Smith was driving home when I first walked down the street. That went off without a hitch, but then when I was walking the other way she was heading back out and aiming right for me :shock: It took me just a second to realize that I was in the same position as the mailbox on the side of the street and there was a truck coming the other way that she was "getting over to avoid"! Ack!!! So off into the leaves I jumped. She didn't even budge an inch or slow down so I am glad I had somewhere to get off the road to :shock:
Today I didn't encounter Mrs. Smith, but Mom had joked to watch out for the school bus. We both laughed because there is no school today due to parent teacher conferences. Anyhow, as I was rounding the turnaround at the end of the street I heard a large vehicle. I saw some trash cans and figured it was probably a trash truck, but nope, it was a school bus! Which barely fits around the small turnaround on our street. Yup, back into the leaves on the side of the road for me!
At this rate I think the stress is offsetting the benefits from my walks!

Geez Amy! Sounds like your walks could be hazardous to your health!!! :shock: Is there somewhere else safer you can go? Or perhaps the treadmill isn't a bad idea, but that can become boring. Our subdivision is extremely hilly with no sidewalks, it can be dangerous. So we either run at the VU campus or our track at the fairgrounds.

Anyway, I'm really glad you're ok!!!!
