MARATHON VOLUNTEERS
I am sure everyone received Mark's plea for volunteers. I thought if everyone could put the pressure on their co-workers, maybe we could ease his anxiety. He e-mailed me directly and asked for Dave to help. I kinda wanted Dave out on the course being cheer-leader, but did say I would give him up if need be. So in true WHOR fashion, let's get some people out on the streets!!!!

Garmin??

For those of you gadget people I want some advice. For Mother's Day and our Anniversary I told my husband I want a Garmin. DO they have them at DBRC or where would you suggest I get them? I am assuming they are all around the same price at each place? Any suggestions on the newer or older one? Tracy-are they on sale at the Scheel's in the mall?
Thanks!

My sister and Las Vegas

Ladies, this is completely unrelated to running...
I am taking my sister to Las Vegas for her bday. I've been there once before and stayed at the MGM...but I think it's out of my price range this time around (for the dates we'd like to go). I am looking for somethign on the strip with a GOOD pool system...meaning, there aren't a lot of screaming kids...and possibly an adult pool....but also somethign that's not totally spendy, like the Bellagio. Looks like the Tropicana might be an okay bet. Has anyone been to Vegas and have any feedback for me?
Thanks!!!

WHOR-made Ebay?

So, Remember how we thoguht maybe we would have a running garage sale? Well....what'd you guys think of posting some items here on our blog just between us? We could take pictures of anything we wanna sell and post them on the site....or you can just describe it. If you don't know how to post a photo....shoot it to me and I can get it on the site for you. Thoughts?

Women's Health Summit

Karen, Jane, and I were at the Women's Health Summit today. I had a great day- I thought it was well worth the registration fee and the time. The speakers were inspirational and informative. It was just fun to spend the day with a bunch of women committed to living a healthy lifestyle.

Everyone got a pedometer. Once I figured out how to work it, I logged in over 7500 steps. I plan to wear it to work tomorrow and get in over 10,000. I learned some T'ai Chi Chih moves that were great for relaxing. A perfect warm up or cool down to running. I got the number of the instructor and hope to take a class from her sometime soon. I also bought a book "Creat the Body Your Soul Desires" by one of the speakers, Dr. Karen Wolfe. I'll put it on my summer reading list and let you know how it is...

Plan to go with me next year!

Grabbing Dick

Beautiful Man!

I've got a ton more that I will email out in the next day or so!

Alberto and Dick

I had such a good time at the Grand Opening of DBRC today! I had to leave before all the prizes were awarded- who got the grand prize of the camp? Anyone we know? Congrats to Kim on the shoes- I'd be really jealous if it hadn't been her birthday this week. :)

Cassie's LAGC concert had to be suspended, then postponed because of a problem with the fire alarm at the church (Hope South)- it kept going off for no reason. It would get turned off, the girls would start singing, and then it would sound again. It was awful. At one point, the alarm kept ringing for 30 minutes straight- it wasn't hard to tell they made the right decision in postponing. The awards banquet was moved to Nativity so we at least were able to do that. The concert will be rescheduled, which is a hassle, but now maybe my parents can see her.

Can someone post pictures from the event this afternoon? I brought my camera, but never took it out of my bag...

running schedule

When is everyone running this week? Going from Courts Monday or Tuesday?

jogging stroller

As I am soon to be a Grandmother (3 weeks or less); I am looking for a jogging stroller (do they not call them running strollers?): anyway, if anyone has one that their kids have outgrown or knows of one, I would certainly be interested in buying it. I think my daughter-in-law and I would both use it a lot.

Thanks, and let me know, appreicate it,

Lady G (Barb Grande) who still hasn't figured out how to get a gmail account. I may have to switch my name to "Whopeless Whor".
