Quick survey...who's registered for Chicago? I need to register ASAP if that's what most are running. You all are too much fun to pass up an opportunity to go to Chicago again!

Congrats to all Gate runners, especially Calkins on the 51:08! I am very impressed by everybody.
I also want to point out my former Flagler teammate Mike Lambert's even 5K splits - 18:19, 18:17, 18:18 = 54:54. Wow!

#15329 Jeff at WGV (on Mar 13, 10 12:08 pm)

Thanks again for such a wonderful tent today at the GRR! It was great meeting some of the beach folks, and of course having the Portapotty is awesome too. We greatly appreciate the effort to make this such a fun event every year. Have a great rest of the weekend!!

Way to go Channel 4 Live TV coverage. Perfect timing in the middle of the GRR to change to Wild About Animals. Glad you are the host TV station. If anyone has updates, please share. I am not able to see the coverage online either. Bummer!

Did get to see some of our guys at the start line! Go ACRR!

#15319 Leah (on Mar 13, 10 7:13 am)

For anyone not able to attend GRR, Channel 4 is the host TV station. Also visit news4jax.com for more live coverage!

5K about to start! 15K at 8:30!

Go ACRR!

#15318 Todd (on Mar 13, 10 5:20 am)

#15313 AjatSea (on Mar 13, 10 12:39 am)

To Eva, the OFC and the rest of the ACRR Gate River Runners,
Best of luck, Run Hard, Race well and F2*&K the Bridge... Hope you get a tail wind all the up it & Laugh all the way down!

#15312 Todd (on Mar 12, 10 4:15 pm)

Expo time!

#15311 karen w (on Mar 12, 10 3:00 pm)

A number of us will be wearing our Don's Friend t-shirts after the GRR to help promote the race on 4/10. If you have one, won't you please wear it and we'll get a group photo.

#15310 Shelby re:Gate River Run area (on Mar 12, 10 2:49 pm)

AW and all ACRR members - Yes, there is a pre/post race area for the ACRR. It's on the lawn area where all the Gate River post run food is - you will see our banners. Bring your lawn chair, and a snack or food to share.

*Laura - don't forget that extra TP - they only gave us 3 small rolls for each toilet!

Will need help from all in the am to set up tents, etc. See you all in the morning!!!

Go ACRR runners!

#15309 Not running GRR (on Mar 12, 10 2:27 pm)

HAHA...Who remembers GRR 07? That wind on the Heart was mean!!!!

#15308 Eva (on Mar 12, 10 1:47 pm)

Looks like we've got some wind for GRR tomorrow!!!! 20-30mph....may it be at our backs!!Mud boots might be a good idea too;0

#15307 AW (on Mar 12, 10 11:20 am)

Is there a tent for ACCR at the gate river run? If so where abouts

#15306 Two cents (on Mar 12, 10 10:36 am)

I believe the tradition is the pic is taken at the carousel since it is easy to round people up. Having it at the race is difficult since some members are warming up. Some members are sitting on the toilet. Etc.

#15305 Laura (on Mar 12, 10 10:10 am)

How about we take the group photo at our wonderful group meeting place right before the race so everyone can be in it?

#15304 JB (on Mar 12, 10 9:24 am)

We will be at the Conch House too.

#15303 David Beck (on Mar 12, 10 8:52 am)

I will miss the group photo in the AM (I'll head up early to get the coffee brewing) but will be at the Chonch House for sure.

#15302 Gate Post Post Party (on Mar 12, 10 8:48 am)

In years past we have met at the Conch House around 3:30 to reflect on our efforts. Sounds good for another year!

#15301 Curious (on Mar 12, 10 8:26 am)

ACRR Conch House party tomorrow after the River Run?

#15300 Justin B. (on Mar 12, 10 7:21 am)

Reminder that we are meeting at the carousel at 5:45am and leaving at 6:00am. We will be taking our group photo during this time. Also, don't forget to bring your lawn chair and a food dish.

Looking forward to a great time!

#15299 Jim (on Mar 12, 10 6:01 am)

Here's another TV Video and News info about Frieda and Norm at the Gate. Shown on TV today. This is an addition to the You Tube video listed earlier.

#15298 Jim (on Mar 12, 10 3:47 am)

Take a look at this You Tube Video!
It's our Frieda and Norm on a TV Interview.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6uyuQd8waA
Frieda is ranked 2nd in the World in her age group.
I'm not even ranked 2nd on my block!

#15297 Shelby (on Mar 11, 10 5:23 pm)

We ended up getting the post thingy. We're all set.

#15296 Heather (on Mar 11, 10 4:40 pm)

You need a mallet!

#15295 Shelby (on Mar 11, 10 2:07 pm)

Does anyone have the heavy duty tool that helps pound metal fence stakes in the ground (NOT a post hole digger). If you have one, you know what it is and what it's called. Please call me 471-6042!! Otherwise we have to go back to the old fashioned sledgehammer method.

#15294 Caboose??? (on Mar 11, 10 1:10 pm)

Any predictions for Gate?

#15293 Renee' (on Mar 11, 10 10:01 am)

May 8th works for us too!!! And, Jesse you are amazing....Thank you!!! xo

#15292 Matanzas Ave. (on Mar 11, 10 8:51 am)

Tim Nelson (bib #2) wins Gate this year (and the equalizer), and
Katie McGregor (bib #14) wins it for the ladies.
