One last belated blog from the A-Team: Some Closing Thoughts

Ok, who is even reading this still? Probably nobody, but I/we feel compelled to submit some parting words for this 2010 Run for the Reason.

Our last day (Saturday) was best described as fast and easy - a phrase we used frequently during our relay. We started running at around 430 am and each of us had relatively strong runs. Our enthusiasm for being done with the running portion and commencing the celebratory portion was not easily masked. We were delighted to only have to run 3.3 miles each, despite gale-force head-winds and excessively humid weather.

Overall lessons learned:
1. Duct tape really is a god-send.
2. While body glide seems good in theory, it is not always the best idea.

3.Sometimes being awesome can garner a negative response from your peers.

4. When the can is full, its full. Enough said.

5. Body odor can take many different forms and can travel in very unique ways.

6. Finally, really...YOU CAN'T TOUCH THIS, ooooohhh oh oh oooohhhh oh oh.

One final thanks to our drivers for keeping it fresh; to the other teams for pounding the pavement; and to Kevin Manogue for all your work - we missed you man! Until twenty-eleven, we out!
