A big congratulations to NOSAMACIRE!!! I loved this contest and everyone came up with such amazing and clever names for this awesome group!
I know that with 2010 closing out and 2011 coming in fast that we're going to have an amazing year and as a team, Run 360 is going to do phenomenal things!

Thanks to everyone who entered the renaming contest for the 2010 Half Marathoners group. It was a tough decision, but the very first entry really resonated with us: Run 360°.
When we think about where we were a year ago from today when we first started this group, might have done a 180° degree turn from where we once were (struggling with Couch to 5K for example) but now we're running 360°, we're running circles around the competition, lapping our prior expectations. We're not just limited to half marathons. We run for the love of it.
So congrats to NOSAMACIRE, who has won the naming competition and honorable mention to MENT2BE, who came up with the great name "Half Crazy" that so many of us also loved.
While I know a lot of us will still focus on 13.1 miles as their distance of choice, some might prefer 10Ks or even marathons and we wanted to make sure all kinds of races were included. That's what makes us such an awesome group, it's casual and fun!
Thanks again for all your entries. We hope you will continue to stay active with this group and share your love of running with all of us!

Just a reminder that Wednesday at 5pm EST will be the last day to submit an idea for the new name for this group. Therese and I will put our heads together and pick a winner sometime after then.

I like "Half" Crazy and Eat, Sleep, Run
I also thought of:
Crazy 4 Runnin'
This covers those of us whose families all think we are crazy for wanting to run (that would be me) and for those who are just crazy in love with the sport.
I do have to admit that I did not and at this point will not be completing a half this year as much as I had hoped to. I started out strong, had problems with my knee and then lost my support group... I'm trying to get back on track with running. I know my body can do it, now I just have to get my head out of the equation.

I was thinking about this during my run yesterday and my #1 pick is 13.1 and Beyond, with my second being "Half" Crazy. But I would be remiss if I didn't say I like my original one too! LOL But figured I would chime in on what seems to be the popular consensus thus far. hehehehe

How about:
13.1 - Want to, plan to, done!
I think of that one because it encompasses all of us regardless of where we are at in the process.

Hi everybody!
We're nearing the end of 2010 and a lot of you have been wondering what's next for this team now that we're heading into 2011. Are we obsolete?
Heck no!
We'd love to keep this team open and active because there's a really good camraderie and it's a manageable size so we're able to individually encourage and cheer on this groups' members. While some of you might be considering marathons for next year, we've all got something in common: we all rocked our 2010 halfs!
In the spirit of the new year, we're inviting you guys to chime in with ideas for a new name for this team as we move into 2011. The name doesn't have to be half marathon related. Just something clever for this awesome group of runners that has congregated this year!
Please submit your idea on this thread by December 1, 2010, 5pm EST in order to be considered. Winner will receive a goodie and lots of cheering from their teammates. If you're willing to send along your address, we'll also chip in some tangible goods that will help you kick butt in your 2011 races.
My success is measured in miles. Not calories, not pounds, not ounces, not inches, not numbers. It's measured by that feeling in my lungs as I push past what I thought was possible.
