Baltimore BOT-Fest

[Theta]

Cindy - Welcome! We can all reintroduce ourselves if you've forgotten us. Are you two still doing the Wine and Dine?

Is anyone else doing the Wine and Dine?

I want to do Wine and Dine, but was shut out, can't believe it, I am usually on top of those things. Anyway, if anyone has a bib, or knows of anyone who wants to sell me their bib...send me a note.

Not sure, but I may be hating you for all of your travels as of late.

Hi everyone.

I will not be doing Wine and Dine.

Did run 12 miles yesterday. I guess I could finish a 1/2 if I tried. Still haven't registered for Ridgefield. That is my plan, just not sure if I'm motivated to drive 2 1/2 hours to run a race if I'm not in very good shape.

Have a great day.

We are! I'm really looking forward to it to. We are going from Thursday to Monday. When will you and Kathy be there?

Glad to see some BOTs coming back to the group... not that they ever left.. they just faded away.

Cam and I will not be attending or running the Wine & Dine. I wish that could be different, but it's not. For those of you traveling to WDW for the event, I hope it is really wonderful. Please let us know all about it, perhaps you'll see us there in future years..

I didn't run over the weekend. I wasn't feeling 100% on Sunday (my LR day) and yesterday I donated double platelets and plasma. So I was not going to attempt a run. I am thinking about a 5 or 6 miler for tonight. I have the Phila. RnR Half this Sunday. (Lou~ I hope you'll come out to cheer us on!).

I am following a training plan for MCM but in filling out the spreadsheet last night, it looks like I am up in miles one week and down the next (picture an out of balance washing machine on spin cycle). No rhyme or reason and I am not following it diligently. I think Jodi somehow influenced this.

CindyLouBQ~ Sign up for Ridgefield! You don't want to miss seeing me "run" again. Right?

More later.. have a great evening!

Chet and I will be running it. Tracy is heading over after work on Saturday. I'm arriving at Fort Wilderness on Friday afternoon and will be there until Tuesday. Tracy and I are doing the off-road segway tour Tuesday morning.

Jen
Does Butch still need a W.I.S.H. green visor? I still have one available if he does and I can bring it to Wine and Dine.

No Wine and Dine for me. Although I am getting a little psyched about this Hershey Race. This was like the best racing deal ever. Besides the race, medal and t-shirt, these guys are throwing in park admission for the runners and their families. Plus they let the kids run a race for free. No way they offer these perks next year. I'll enjoy them while they last.

Hersheypark Half Park:

All runners (and immediate family) are invited to visit Hersheypark on Saturday, October 2 at 6:00 PM. If you plan to participate, we'll need to know how many tickets you need (Sorry, tickets are not for sale for this private event.) Please complete the attached survey/ticket request by Sunday, September 19 to let us know how many people are coming to Hersheypark.

Also on Saturday is the Kids Fun Run in Hersheypark Stadium at 5:00 PM. Kids 2-13 are welcome to participate in this FREE event, but pre-registration must be completed by Sunday, September 19. (Each pre-registered child will receive a T-Shirt and goody bag.) Registrations received after September 19 will not be eligible to receive these items. Go here to register your child for the Fun Run.

Jodi: Don't hate me, just come with us The travels are coming as a much needed break from real life-- distraction is good.

Lou: I wish I could somehow do both Hershey and Wine and Dine. I lived in Hershey for 3 years and absolutely love it there. Might do the race next year.

Chester: He actually does still need a visor if you have it we'd really appreciate it.

We are! I'm really looking forward to it to. We are going from Thursday to Monday. When will you and Kathy be there?

We are getting in Saturday morning (should make a 10PM race fun). The original plan was to leave Tuesday evening but... we have some conflicting events. Damn kids! We'll probably try to get an earlier flight on Tuesday.

Speaking iof conficting events; I feel really bad for Kathy. Every race weekend that she had on her radar for this fall is a no go due to DD14's color guard extensive schedule. Damn kids!

 

[KeenHo]

Quick Post.... then back to work.

I ran last night after work...my platelet and plasma donation the day before didn't seem to make a difference in my energy level during the run.

Miles: 7.0
Time:1:00:42
Pace: 8:40
Splits: 8:41, 9:10, 8:43, 8:30, 8:45, 8:47 and 8:06.

I feel like I am ready for the ING Phila. Rock & Roll Half on Sunday but no where near where I'd like to be for MCM. Luckily I still have some time to work on that.

There will be a mini-WISH meet in Philly at the traditional spot at the bottom right of the Art Museum steps. Jen, Butch, Me, Cam?, John and Karen to name a few. I hope Lou will stop by to Scream Team for us too. Looks like I'll be hitting the Expo early on Saturday, most likely near opening.

CindyLouBQ~ I saw you signed up for the Ridgefield Half!!! It'll be really nice to see you there and to run this one with you.

Jodi~ Are you going to drive down to Ridgefield to cheer us on? Hmm? I think Charlie, Juicy and I might dine at Tequila Mockingbird on Saturday... I'm just saying.. There's always room at our table for you and Bruce, et al.

Sara~ Please check in and let us know what you are up to and how you're feeling these days. Miss you!!!

Have a great day BOTS!!!

Colleen - I'll let Jodi deal with you for bailing out on MCM.

I'm jealous, too, Colleen.

Congrats to all those who ran in Philly yesterday. It was a little warm, but you guys put down some awesome times!!

I ran 9 on Sat.; then biked 14 miles & swam for 1/2 hour on Sunday. Couldn't sleep at all last night. Felt like I had that restless leg/body syndrome going on...like I had just drank a bucket of coffee.

So are you Wine&Diners getting together for a mini-bot meet?

WISH I had signed up for the Hershey Half, too. Oh well Every time I sign up for something months out I end up getting inured anyway, so...

Chester: He actually does still need a visor if you have it we'd really appreciate it.

I'll have it with me.

Is there going to be a Mini-Bot Meet?

 

[jbucci]

I'm up for a mini-Bot meet. We get there Thursday night and are doing a tour on Friday but are pretty free. We are staying at BWV. We head home on Sunday evening.
