    Damn, totally forgot that one! I've got 3, one is under the sink holding various chemicals, another has clothing and photography books/running mags/etc.. in it and this one I don't know yet.

     

    The best three items I've received are:  1.)  5-gallon bucket (Evansville Half does this every year)  2.)  Recyclable grocery bag (Flying Pig, et al)  3.)  Drawstring bags.  These are all items I use frequently, so they're incredibly useful to me.  Most of the other stuff...  Not so much, unless it's unhealthy food.

      By the way, I heard that Canadians and Europeans had received their commemorative book a week early, before Americans. I was wondering if Americans had received a special edition (a more patriotic one, maybe...) because of the events. LTH, Jay... what was the cover of yours like?

        At one race I received a pair of Saucony running socks and a whole tube of nuun tablets. Still scratching my head over the vegetable oil sample I received at another race though. *shrug*
