Hood-to-Coast Entry Up for Bid on Ebay - Fundraiser for Christchurch, NZ
I've posted before on how much I like the site, Athlinks.com.
Here's another reason why:
Athlinks.com has been a sponsor of the IMTalk podcast for several years now. The show's hosts, John and Bevan, are located in the heart of Christchurch and in an effort to help out they have donated their full team registration for the Hood to Coast Relay in Oregon this August 26-27 to help the Christchurch, NZ Earthquake Victims.
Here's the Ebay link, if you're interested!

Many thanks to our Web Manager, Blake for the logo design and web page development and putting up with my umpteen changes; Michelle for allowing me to bounce logo concepts and names to no end and to Mike Bowers, the originator of the Try the Tri at Wise Regional and the Race Director for the series. The Try the Tri in July 2009 was my first triathlon and started me on this crazy journey! :)

Hood-to-Coast Encore! February 10 at 7:30pm
Hey there! Just received the following comment on my Hood-to-Coast blog entry.
So, I thought I'd give it a bump to a full post, since I enjoyed the movie so much and I'm pretty impressed that the director took the time to seek out my blog to post the info:
Christoph Baaden said...
- Hello Everybody, This is Christoph, director of Hood To Coast. I am so glad you liked our movie. Great news, thanks to the success of our 1-11-11 Event, Hood To Coast will be back for a one-night encore in over 100 movie theaters on Thursday 2-10-11 at 7:30 PM. Hope to see all of you at the movies on 2-10. Best, Christoph Additional Info from Mr. Baaden:
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! We are excited to announce a one-night encore performance of the running documentary Hood To Coast in select theaters. This is your final chance to see the Event with the Red Carpet and Expert Panel. Hood To Coast will be playing again on February 10, 2011 at 7:30pm. To find participating theaters and buy tickets, please visit www.hoodtocoastmovie.com(tickets can also be purchased at your local box office). This truly special film opened to rave reviews. Hood To Coast is the largest relay in the world, where each year 1,000 teams (12,000 runners) cover 197 grueling miles as a relay, putting themselves through an arduous physical journey that as an individual would be impossible. As Bart Yasso of Runner’s World magazine put it, “If one movie captures the Runner’s High, Hood To Coast is it!” The film captures the love, dedication, and insanity of the every day runner as well as the excitement, pain, and humor of the unprepared first timer. Their stories are reminders that no matter who you are, you can push yourself beyond where you thought your limits were. If you have already seen the film, please tell your friends that there is another chance to see Hood To Coast in theaters. Check out the trailer at www.hoodtocoastmovie.com.
