Forums >Gears and Wears>Boston Jacket
The Boston Marathon sandals do the same thing as the belt but for running. In the end I will buy the sandals so that I don't have to race every idiot that runs by me. They should know that I was nice enough to let them pass because I am running an easy day. Hopefully they are respectfull of the sandals and bow as they run by. Now if another person runs by me with their Boston Marathon sandals on then it will be on like Donkey Kong!

What you need is a pair of shoes which list your 27 world records on them.
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
I always thought that they should have the jackets link to our garmin so that it could show our pace and current mileage clearly on our jackets so that all could see it as we are running.
That way when people catch you running for a minute or two they can see that you are on mile 18 and you can see that they are only on mile 2. Then they will know to bow to you as they go by, only to see you speed up again to pass them and put them in their place. This of course forces them to bow once again as you pass.
Just in case anyone is taking me seriously I am just teasing and kidding around. I don't think the jacket really means that you are all that fast. Especially when you look at some of the qualifing times for the ladies (Again just kidding! See the winky guy at the end. That means I am kidding.)
BTW - These jackets would really only mean anything if you could only get them with your registration. If only we could find a cool way to run with your medal and not have it flop all over the place.

You want a medal for registering? I think they call that a bib! :-)
Then they will probably sell a "finishers" jacket.
I think I just heard somebody at Adidas commissioning a market research study....

Worst.Slides.Ever. Bought 'em cheap online when they were on clearance. Wouldn't be worth the price if they were free, the return label was on that box in record time..
Did you try to run a race in them BD? I know the minimal movement is afoot but really.

My way of doing this is to keep wearing my headlamp at mile 18, that I put on whenI left the house a half hour before sunrise.

Freaking genius. Now I have to bow down to you for this genius idea.
Best Present Ever
No you big silly, if I'm going to make a minimalist statement it would be in pink Crocs. And a skirt, And I'd shave off my hippie hair. That way I could be like my hero from Boston '09.
I think those are the '09 Qualifier jacket and Qualifier gloves.
The pink dude (?) next to your hero is in hose. Not bad either.
Imminent Catastrophe
Nah just trying to be your support group. You need a challenger but it has to be someone faster than me. And weird that twice in two days I've seen hazardous spelled with two "z"s.
That looks a little like Jenn Shelton.
