well my decision has been made. If you read my post I said I wasnt sure who to back,but since Randall jumped the gun and said I was with team Tim then I might as well join team Tim. Sorry Barry but Randall made me do it

Told the Half Marathon running, Pirate Princess your post. She gave me a sly grin. Then asked innocently, "He is talking about me?" Well, you let the cat (or cheetah) out of the bag. No problem because Stopher didn't take the bait. Anyway if she can get away from school she will be running the Marathon. For those that did not know she ran it in 2:13.

Chin up Barry, we can take them. Now go eat a dozen raw eggs.

As the DW of Barry I must ask...

What is the true motivation of Tim? Are you trying to make me a single mother of three by killing off your nemesis? I know I give Barry a hard time but I would kind of like him to stick around for the next few years, at least until the diaper years have passed. What then Madison will be in her tween years and the teen years are right around the corner, he will need to be here for that so I don't go crazy.

I also think you picked an interesting year to do this. Barry has a brand new baby coming in a few weeks. He can train until then but he may be slightly sleep deprived for a few months. Oh well, he accepted.

Either way, I get another Disney trip out of this. I don't have to get up early to watch the race, do I?

OMG I just totally stumbled apron this PTR. So fun! I will be following along as I strive for the Princess half myself in 2013. There is no better motivation than a Disney race.

Shhh...I don;t think Barry knows he has to get up early to RUN the race.

[Wherem I Now]

As I recall, one of the participants in this nemesis battle actually LIKES IASW. If only I could remember which one...

[afwdwfan]

Bambi, we don't want Barry to die. We want him to live a long, happy life. That's why we want him to do this challenge to get healthy.


It has nothing to do with the fact that I will thoroughly enjoy seeing him suffer as he trains to get half marathon ready.

[that's nice]

You know, there's room for some of you to run too.

Wow an opportunity to watch a train wreck…
I’ll watch! (I’ll feel bad about myself for doing so… but I’ll watch )

LOL... Hopefully this is more like a fender bender than a train reck.

Come'on Andy... You can talk your DW into letting you go!!!!

What are your colors?

Team Tim is the way to go!

I like manly colors... unlike Barry. He likes pastels.

Thanks for reading! We'll need your help soon.

Barry, got your back. Consider me Mickey (the trainer not the mouse) to your Rocky. This is going to be fun. For us, not you guys.

Now Barry go out there and chase around some chickens.

Now I see where you stand CJ. Have fun loosing!

I was a half-marathon rookie until January. I can talk you through some of the rookie mistakes you may make. Anyway- good luck to you both!

This is great! We need help from marathoners like you! Are you planning on running in the 2013 marathon?

I think now, I want to be on Team Bambi and Team Melody!

Played? Nooooo. We wouldn't do that.

Hey Sara! Thanks for reading!

I may have to take this as my excuse to join the festivities. Both for my fitness and the opportunity to make it to the DDC.

I'm sure there will be lots of taunting.

The more the merrier! You can join in! We don't bite!
