  • Did my first 5k last weekend, doing another one on 5/4.

    In his memory!
  • I'm in for one of the days this weekend. It's for you Gary.

    Found my old category in that thread:
    EVEE...OO ~ The "almost" RACHAEL RAY SPECIAL ~ for BILLBLUEEYES
    where EVEE stands for Extra Virgin Elite Elder.
  • I never did any of the original 5ks but I'm in (and glad the weather has cooled a little for it).
  • My first EZ virtual 5K was Memorial Day, 2008, so I was close to the first one. Sign me up!
  • I'm in!! I did a couple of those on the elliptical back in the day and will happily do it again in memory of Gary! Thanks for thinking of this, Amanda!!
  • Reporting!
    *note that time is remaining, not lapsed


  • I did that one too. I was in the overweight SAHM group, the early bird special.

    I always enjoyed his 5K threads. Plus they got me moving.

    I will do one in his honor.
  • I'd be honored! I'm in!
  • I may not have known him personally but I enjoyed him and 3FC means a lot to me and he means a lot to 3FC. I'm in. Doing it tonight, it'll probably be mostly walking but I'm gunna do it.
  • I enjoyed his humor in the baseball threads.

    I will also take part in this. Tomorrow I will do a walk/run mix.

    BTW, the church in the photos is where President Carter was for several days before his burial. Virtual 5k
    Jimmy Carter? He isn't dead.

    Congrats on completing that run.
  • I wish I could sign up. I can't do this any longer because of A Fib and now vertigo. I'm there in spirit.
  • Quote: Jimmy Carter? He isn't dead.

    Congrats on completing that run.
    Oops! Thanks for catching that Mare! I meant President Ford!!!
  • My 5k to Gary's memory is done, part ran and part walked. RIP Gary, you will be sorely missed here.
  • I was just thinking that I need to start doing some running. I will definitely do a 5K sometime this weekend in memory of Gary.

    We should do it annually in Gary's memory and honor.
