Jodi - Sorry to hear the foot is d-baggging you (is that an appropriate use of the word, oh douchey queen?). I'd do the typical WISH thing and send you Pixie Dust but you'd probably just swat the little fairy away like a gnat!

Yes for the usage of the word; quite correct on your thoughts of the pixie dust; no to your pinhead comment (think Hellraiser) - it actually felt really good .

Cindy - Glad that you made it home . Traveling sucks.

OK, Bruce wanted me to update all of you guys. He's pleased that he is an honorary Bot now & that the Bot water has saved Mike & Matt from certain death due to dehydration. However, he has a bone to pick with both Matt & Colleen.
First,Colleen; when I told him it was confiscated from you @ the airport he was quite upset that you didn't either chug the water in line so you could have at least kept the bottle, or tried to rush the security barricade to get the BotWater home safely.
Matt/Cindy - He liked the story, except for the part where the bottle "rolled out from underneath the seat". He can't believe that it was just thrown aside like so much flotsam, to roll around on the floor of your car with discarded wrappers & such.

Hey, I'm just the messenger. He plans to deal with you all in NH @ the RELAY RACE THAT WE'RE ALL DOING!

Funny thing was, she DID offer for me to chug it!

Anybody want Tracy's bib for the WDW Full?. It's up for grabs. The cost is that you have to forfeit the race shirt. Any takers? Dave?, Sara?

I ran a decent 5 miles Tuesday night finishing with an 8:07 mile. Last nights 7 miles was postponed because of Miranda's soccer game. I'll try to get it in tonight.

Happy training to all,

Chester

OMG! I won't even tell Bruce!

Hi there Phillie Folks! Glad to see things getting back to "normal" after your event. I see it was mentioned about deciding on another event then perhaps moving to another thread.
I thought I'd give ya'all a PSA. Max pages per thread is 250. You've got a couple more pages to decide and move outta here. No rush, take your time, talk slow...

 

[keenercam]

Hi, Lily!! Hi, Phillybots!
Along the lines of Chester's post -- Anyone want to run the half? If so, PM me (I don't want to take up precious real estate unnecessarily -- looks like about 15 pages to go. )

Oh man! The thread cops are gonna get us for loitering! "You don't have to go home but you can't stay here."

Oh man again. I wasted a valuable post being a smart a$$!

Oh man x 3. If I would have avoided being a smart a$$ about 18 months ago this thread would be good for another year!

Oh the humanity!

I typically wait to get my PSA when I have my blood work done every six months. Unfortunately, I am not due for a few months. I'm afraid it'll have to wait!

What ever do you mean??

Hi Lily, thanks for the heads up!

OK Jodi, Mike, somebody Bot, go ahead and start a new thread. What is the relay called. RTTB?? I don't feel comfortable starting a new thread since I haven't committed to this race. Afterall, NH is a long way north.

 

[jbucci]

We could start a new thread called Philly Bot and ignore the problem for another 250 pages

Not to waste valuable space, but does anyone else have an image of Tinkerbell flying into a wall in a cloud of unwanted pixie dust after reading Mike's post?

Cam: what's wrong? why aren't you able to do the half?

As for me, did 5 miles on Tuesday and spent all of last night "crosstraining" by lugging heavy Christmas decor into and out of the attic. Our local gym had some sort of gas leak and closed on us. After getting the gas thing fixed, the inspectors noticed a bunch of other violations that need to be fixed before they can reopen (perhaps this is why the place is so cheap ) so my cross training options are a bit limited... now to stop taking up space and go run...

 

[lourodrigis]

Wow! Lots of activity this week. I can't keep up.

Ran 5 miles today. I almost tripped over a shot gun shell on the bike path at Mile 2.5. Yes, a shot gun shell! I saw 2 hunters about a mile ahead but was never able to reach them before they ducked into the woods. I guess I better make sure to run with bright colors or just run REAL fast.

The temptation of taking up one of the WDW full or 1/2 slots is VERY tempting. I guess I could just road trip down to Orlando and run the race. Forget it, I'd be dead meat at home if I signed up for another Disney race this year.

So, we are getting kicked off of this thread. Just let me know when and where we decide to go next.

Jodi - Is Bruce going to drive the RTB bus?

Lou

 

[Jodi]

Jodi - Is Bruce going to drive the RTB bus?

Drive the BUS? Heck no! He wants to run this thing & actually earn the title of BOT! Pretty scary about the shell. Next time pick it up & ping it off the hunters head . So which one are you gonna run in WDW, the 1/2 or full ?

Colleen - No one has committed to the RTB relay, so go ahead & start a BOT thread, kay?

CT @ the gym yesterday was heinous. It smelled like butt in there & the posers were in full show . Got an ok workout in and will go back today for some more odoriferous exercise .

If she's serious about giving it up, I'd definitely be interested in the bib . No shirt required I'm in MCO Saturday around 5, staying with WISH friends for the evening but I will have a car and can hook up with you guys sometime Saturday evening. Just PM me and I would be more than happy to buy it from you

Thanks Chester & Tracy

OK, friends,

I am officially putting this thread to rest.

Please move to our new home here

I think we should run this puppy to the edge of the cliff and straight off! Whose with me!?!

Oh stop it!!! It's time to move on, Howard . Come join us on the Bot Battalion .

Cam: what's wrong? why aren't you able to do the half?

...

Jen, thanks for asking. I am definitely running the 1/2 still. Actually, my adopted niece, and my Aunt and Uncle all signed up for the half and can't do it. So, if anyone wants to run as a 21 year old female, or a mid-fifties man or woman for the 1/2, it could probably be arranged. Just PM me.

Sara -- Are you sure you want to do the FULL?

 

[jbucci]

Cam: glad to hear you are ok. It is temping to become a 50 yr old woman for the 1/2-- my age/grade % would be much better I'll think we will pass and see how the full goes by itself this year before trying to do both-- maybe Goofy in 2010

 

[Optimator]

Well, I had post #2 of this thread and I'm not jumping ship as easily as all you flip-floppers. Y'all will just go with any pretty face, won't you. Bunch of husseys!

I'm with Howard. I'm driving this old beater of a thread until she won't drive no more.

I may "visit" Botty-ville from time to time (thanks Colleen ) but you Johnny Come Lately hoppers better keep checking here too until our baby is laid to rest.

Sara - Yippee for jumping in with both feet. Why don't you get the half bib from Cam and do an unofficial Goofy?

Howard - Sorry the brace is cramping your piggies. Hopefully it will get better after you use it a couple of nights.

Jody - Hussey!

Howdy to everyone else.

I did 12 miles this morning. Not too bad but I had to make a quick Jodi-stop at mile 6. I always feel bad for those poor people enjoying their bagels at Panera as I go wafting by. Better than the alternative though.
