TIR Update, Sponsors, Training, Blog

All, First...Congrats to all of you that participated in the half and full marathons this weekend. Job well done! I want to let you know that your team captains will be meeting this week to begin the final planning push for TIR, which is less than two months away. You will most certainly see an increase in e-mail traffic from us regarding TIR.

Additionally, we are trying to engage sponsors to assist with the cost of the shirts, travel, etc. If you think any of your employers are interested in being a sponsor please let me know. We are looking for a minimum of $250 per sponsor and in return we will, at a minimum, put their corporate logo on the relay shirts (108 shirts in all...that is 3 per runner for all you Aggies).

Currently we have three sponsors...
Marathon Psychology Group
Castleguard Consulting
Race Ready (pending...they have agreed to supply their Race Ready Cool-T shirts at a significant discount...~$850 savings).

Last thing...their is a group of us that are training for various Spring events including the TIR. I'm in the process of setting up a blog for us to use to exchange information regarding training, TIR logistics, etc. Should be ready to go by late tomorrow. http://texrelay.blogspot.com/
