Weather: Update

Where: ATT or Shelley Lake

Looks like we should postpone til at least Sunday. Or we can make snow angels and snowmen and skip the run and just go to Starbucks. Maybe flying saucers down the hill repeats?

TriRunWith.Us turns 3 today!

We have had quite a bit of fun together over the last three years. In case you missed the other two birthdays:

Here is #2

And here is #1

I think we can all appreciate the hundreds and thousands of miles we have run, biked and swam together.

Where: Umstead Park – Bridge to Nowhere

When: 6:30 AM

Weather: Warm as its been for a morning run in a long time – mid to upper 30s

So now we know what Rap Master Sass does in his free time. He likes to think of imaginative ways to get all his friends together to do crazy things that involve crossing the state line (don’t worry, none of the activities are illegal, I think).

The 2010 Blue Ridge Relay starts in Grayson Highlands Virginia and wraps up in Asheville NC.

We need 12 runners. We could probably also take a few people in the “maybe” slot as alternates.

Update – 4 to go (Hurry folks this race *WILL* sell out )

Check out the website – looks like a ton of fun!

Note delayed time and new location start! [Read more →]

What: Final chance to snag a very few remaining slots on Active.com

When: January 11, 8:00 AM (I would try at 7:45, 7:50, etc to see if you can jump the gun)

Who: Sandbagger, Squeeky (maybe), [fill in your name here], Bueller? Anyone?

January 11th 2010 8AM – Active.com will have a second sign-up period for the Umstead Trail Marathon, with the number of slots available matching the number of people that dropped out. After those slots fill, there will no longer be any refunds, transfers or waiting lists. The fee for that race at that time is $65 ($55 registration with a $10 donation to the Umstead Park water fountain). Note: We have not kept a waiting list, so you MUST go to Active.com on January 11th and sign up. Also, we will do our best to accomodate T-shirt size requests, but sizes cannot be guaranteed for these late sign-ups.

Where: American Tobacco Trail – White Oak Entrance

When: 7:30 AM – hopefully entrance to White Oak will be open

Weather: Cold and windy 27 degrees. Bring your long johns and waffle stompers!

Welcome 2010! And just to set the precedent, that is “Twenty Ten”, not “Two Thousand and Ten” or “Two Ten”

Race Report by Jon Sasser

Stumbling through the darkness of the Arizona desert, I see no sign of the Marine I’ve been stalking for the past fourteen hours. Going head to head with a man young enough to be my son, whose body fat is about one fifth of mine, no longer seems like such a good idea. I’m also wondering if taking $400 from the Pima Tribe, who have called this valley home since 400 A.D., might be bad karma. [Read more →]

Our very own funk-meister Steve E representing Lockdown (and the Mitterling Milers) extremely well.

A gaggle of Milers are there enjoying the tunes and chili, and a Canes win of course. [Read more →]
