Philly Olympic 2008?

Who has or intends to sign up for the Olympic distance tri next year? If not Philadelphia, elsewhere?

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!

Hope everyone has a GREAT Thanksgiving filled with yummy food, family and friends! Just got back from the 5mile Turkey trot here in North Carolina... soooo exciting! =) Next week we start practicing again at St.Joe's... oh the memories! I have almost decided on the half-iron that I am going to try and do this year... anyone want to join me?!?!?

Deirdre has landed

Not sure you've all known, but I was with Exelon Corporation when you met me, was a contractor at Siemens Medical this summer, and recently landed what I call - a "real job".

First, I accepted the Manager of Organizational Development & Training position at Acme Corporate office in Wayne, PA. Don't get excited, no food discount because........ well I'm going.
I will call next week and tell them - just KIDDING - I'm not coming! (ouch, ugly not looking forward to that call)

What??

SEI in Oaks, PA offered me a "position" (they don't have titles, see this month's Philly Magazine). I strongly believe in taking the best of people's potential and love companies that are creative, flexible and appreciate their employees - well, though I can't believe I made the decision on Acme then renig'd on a job with a great title, I'm really happy with my decision. Plus SEI's off the perkiomen creek, has a gym, a month vacation and has flexible work schedules!

I'm starting after "Tofurkey Day" (which is what we veggies call the holiday) on 11/26.
Wish me rots-r-ruck!

Good luck Nicole!

Good luck on Sunday! Is anyone else running this weekend?

Jingle Bell 5K

Is anyone interested in doing this? It's on Sunday, December 9th in Malvern, PA.

Cool Run...

It was great seeing Nicole yesterday at the Dash for Democracy 5K... as she blew my doors away!! =) She definitely looks ready for the half marathon in just a couple of weeks. The Run the Bridge 10K was GREAT today... I recommend people run it next year.... the Ben Franklin is fun to run over... I couldn't believe it was 3+miles for just the bridge... the incline on the bridge is no fun, but goes by quick. I also think the fact that there were 3,500+ people on the bridge made it more enjoyable... are people still planning on running the 8K on Nov. 18? Let me know....
