Great River Relay Here We Come!

Some updates for you all!
We are PUMPED to make the trek to La Crosse this Thursday, August 23rd! Our team of twelve includes myself, Heidi, Jen, Benita, Krista, Jane, Candace, Jill Thompson, Nicole Kungle, Robin Quade and Melinda. We are spending the night at the Holiday Inn in La Crosee and have an Estimated Start Time on Friday morning at 8:00am. Krista is leading us out on the first leg! So far, the weather is predicted to be low 80s with a possiblity of showers. Pray for overcast...and no rain! We have our shirts ready....cute as can be....and we'll be all dolled up in glitter eyeshadow and makeup and red hot lipstick. We are really going to WHOR it up out there. We'll be pushing our panties (not ours....cheap new ones) onto the boys who pass us....or we pass....and a few of them might actually get lei-d by a WHOR or two! :) We won't be winning the race with any stellar times so wish us luck as we go out there and represent you all, the DBRC and Fargo-Moorhead. The goal is to bring home a medal for you all! (yes Kathleen, they have medals at this event!)

Lastly, if any of you WANT text message updates....let us know. Maybe post your number here if I dont' already have it. But even if I do have your cell number, you should probably let me know if you want me to chew up your text messages with our updates. OH! And I THINK I am going to bring my computer along.....so we'll try to post some pics and updates here as well!

Wish us luck!

CHICAGO HERE WE COME!!!

My run this morning was awsome! The weather was perfect- 50 degrees, little humidity, and we had so much support. Kim, Diane, and I ran 20; Ann and Donna ran 12. It was so nice to have company for the majority of the run, since I have long given up running with the Boston qualifier and her expert pacer!

Barb surprised us on the course blasting the theme from Rocky in her car and snapping a few pictures. I really appreciated her support- it was so unexpected! We also saw Mike Almquist from RRR and the Fargo Marathon out running. He was doing 20 miles, also, and ran the same course we did, but started from the Downtown Y. He's always so friendly.

Diane struggled with stomach pains on the run- I hope you're feeling better soon!

For those of you doing your long run tomorrow-good luck & Have fun!

Weekend Run

Hey Gals!
I am looking for some partners for a run this weekend. I have to stay in town cuz my sister is going to swing through town and pick me up to go camping. I want to do another 16 miler but am NOT looking for someone to run that distance with me if you can't. It would just be great to have a partner or two the first or last half....or both!

Anyone running in town this weekend?
Kim and Diane, what time are you starting your 20 miler on Friday?

WHOR HELP

Fellow whors,

Since I seeem to be living vicariously thru your running this summer, I need DETAILS! How was the run yesterday around DL? I know it was raining early. Did Donna go down the slide like a big girl? And, most important, did you all go for breakfast at Perkins? And, if so what did you eat? The one problem with not running is I can't pig out all the time! Hate it!

Miss you all, but love hearing how your runs are going. Less than 2 months to Chicago and Detroit! Hope everyone is staying injury free! Dr. J, thanks again for the jogging stroller, both Eric and Anne are using it with Benson!

Details please,

Lady G
