My favorite useful one is a big nylon zippered bag that I now use to store and carry running junk. My other favorite one is a selection of snack size protein/energy bars. My seven year old daughter ate a couple of them and thought they were pretty good "candy" bars. She saved the last one for grandma. Based on the look on grandma's face, this bar was particularly nasty and non-candy like. Of course grandma choked it down because her granddaughter was waiting to hear how good it was. I couldn't stop laughing on my way to make grandma a new cup of coffee to wash it down with. Grandma wasn't laughing Evil grin

Passion is a rather frightening thing because if you have passion you don't know where it will take you.

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

I'm with grandma...I don't think I've found an energy bar yet that I didn't have to choke down. Which is why I prefer those little pre-wrapped Rice Krispy treats. Big grin

Yeah, but will that fancy bag keep your beer cold? A nice bag is no good if your beer gets warm!

When you're on your deathbed, you won't be wishing that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will be wishing that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

I just like blended t-shirts (not 100% cotton). Big grin

The craziest race swag.... Let's just say it had to do with covering up part of the male anatomy. Tongue

I think underwear with the race logo on it would be awesome. So long as it was technical fabric...

No, it was a Willie warmer with the lyrics to Kevin Fowler's song, "Don't Touch My Willie", embroidered on. You know that's a great running tune! haha just joking! Bonkin, your right.
