I haven't, but I know several who have and they're quite popular.

I have done the AZ one and plan to run it again this year... perhaps we should get www.run-down.com singlets...
Some advertizing Dan? _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |

But in reference to the race I realize that I did not put any info in. I enjoye dthis race very much Course itself is pretty nice flat and fast - a small rise near the end but its basically a short overpass... nothing major at all although at 24-25 miles a curb feels like a hill.
Support was good throughout but certainly some dead spots... bands for the most part were very good - one I remember at mile 8 was just amazing they were doing a cover of Whole Lotta Love and just awesome.
The complaints I have heard about th erace were logistic - around the bussing to the start - there were some delays and they held up th erace a bit as a result. My Dad lives in AZ so he drove me to the start so I did not have to deal - I was late but it was my own fault
well hope th etraining goes well
And no Dan I have not put my team in yet and no its not in protest to not getting my way haha I just have been swamped I have until midnight right? _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |

I've thought about Run-Down singlets in the past but there never seemed to be much interest. How cool would it be to have a decrepit old guy front and center on your singlet?
(Midnight is pushing it... I have to lock the rosters down tonight since the meet gets underway tomorrow morning, so it depends on when I go to bed. Midnight your time is safe, of course.)
