Jess: I think you’ve got it.

Jane: I was just joshing about ol’ Burt. He gets all my props. But I’m sticking to my guns on duck vs. goose.

Marcy: I haven’t worn any of mine yet, either. Maybe next time I’m painting the house?

MizFit: Flaunt it, right?

RazZDoodle: Instead I’m one of the people snickering at “those” people. I’m not sure if that’s better…

We had this SAME discussion before my last race! Leave the new t-shirt in the car. Don’t be one of “those” people.

I guess I, too, am with jess.

but bear in mind I dont do races so I’ll prolly sport it during aforementioned activity and all day every day for the next week or 3.

I’m with Jess, I always thought that you’re not supposed to do it until after the race. I never wear race shirts anyway. Maybe to bed but that’s it LMAO!

1. Could Total Poser and Trying Too Hard be considered redundant?

2. Maybe you’ve never heard “God Give Me Strength” by B. Bacharach — one of the greatest songs ever written. Try to find Elvis Costello’s version (or even Kristen Vigard’s version from the movie Grace of My Heart). You may change your tune, or at least give him props for that one.

3. It is now, and always has been, “Duck, duck…GOOSE.” (Is my inner-Iowegian showing?)

My thought has always been you don’t wear the race shirt until after you’ve completed the race. Thus to proudly show off you finished it. (I won’t lie though I broke this rule two weeks ago when I was home without a coat…it had been warm when i left to drive home…and the free race coat was all i had to wear the night before the race)
