        That's the plan at this point. Would you like to request a date?

          I think this sounds like a lot of fun! Is this weekend a go for sure?

            This Saturday is a go! So far we've got the following people signed up: Mile Collector (5 mile division) mbotti backroadrunner (both 5 mile and 5K divisions) Hawk Runner Wingz Pron8r (5 mile division? I have a 5K time here...) nite_runner maybe's: zoom-zoom Did I miss anyone? Sounds like this time will be a small race. Hey, all, invite your friends! It's free, it's fun, and it's right here!

              And everyone knows marathoners can't run 3.1 miles... Big grin Tongue
              Well, we can. Just not particularly fast. Big grin In fact, I ran 8 5K's last Saturday. All in a row. At any rate, I'm posting my time from today's 5 mile run, if that's ok with you, Wingz (you are the race director, aren't you?), as I'm doing 10 Saturday. Using my middle three miles, my time was 20:45. Is there a virtual t-shirt or something we get?

                That's the plan at this point. Would you like to request a date?
                Perhaps July 4th? There always seem to be 4th of July 5k's around the country. Just a thought.

                  I think you only get a virtual t-shirt only if you're the first 100 people that sign up Clowning around

                    Mile Collector had asked for a 5 mile division. If you two boys want your own private race for the full 5 mles I think we can do that now! (Sorry, Pron8r, we wouldn't be able to use your 3 mile time for the 5 mile distance...) Wink I hadn't thought of a virtual t-shirt... hmm... Any t-shirt designers out there who might be willing to contribute their talents to the cause?

                      Ok, I'm just back from my club's Thursday night 5 mile run. My time is 36:50, which means Pron8r is in the lead Dead

                          Think you can come up with an image for this before Sat? If not, I'll just have to do something really cheesy...

                            Okay toss me an idea or two of what you may want and I'll see what I can do.

                              <super-secret> Big grin Pron8r - do you have the time for the whole 5 miles so Mile Collector can have someone to run against? If not, we can take MC's times and do the math to find out a 3 mile average...</super-secret>

                                I'm not sure I should open myself up to the snail ridicule, but I'd be willing to do both the 3.1 & the 5. I'll be running 5 tonight & I'll run the 3.1 tomorrow. I can compete with the slow crowd in the 3.1, but 5 miles in 36mins?? I'm going with that ego-saving theory of "I'll do my personal best"!!!! Big grin
