I would SO love to win…for many reasons but primarily it would be GREAT incentive for me to continue running & lose more of the baby weight that has been plaguing me. That would make me a very happy gal!! And I'm only 3 hours from ATL!!! Woo!!
And here is a link to my Tweet: http://twitter.com/krystyn13/status/12902277980
I want to come and I'll even bring my running shoes.
I retweeted this directly from here but Lord knows I don't know how to find that link. I'm gonna try. LOL
Oh People U dont know
I want this so bad.
Met Wifey in person.
SHE AWESOME. SHE RAD.
She runs with a smile
(me? more like a frown)
Her positive spirit?
There NO sad when she's 'round.
The ATL I adore.
Where I long to live
(anyone there have a job
that they ME wanna give?)
I shall wrap this up
wishing all of us LUCK
Caint lie to you though
If I DONT WIN that will…notbegreat
I would love to win this! I need some new races to run and a fun trip.
OH EM GEEEEE! I have to win this, I really have to win this! I've just started back to race training after a back injury two summers ago – I am training for a half marathon and this, THIS fits into my training schedule perfectly. Wifey needs me to run with her – my babbling chipper-ness on a run is just plain awesome and AND I'll provide entertainment for all because my stride has to be at least 2-3 steps to Wifey's one… face it, what is more fun than watching a little blonde girl frantically trying to keep up with a beautiful long legged black woman?
Just wait until I blog this cause then the random.org Gods will see that this was meant for me…..

Oh, wow.
This is a total killer contest.
I would love to win – I'm such a chicken when it comes to doing things with other people (people I don't know, obviously, since I do things with my husband and such!) but am so addicted to social media. It's like I want to be known but have no idea how! LOL

Finding time to run, let alone relax is difficult so a weekend dedicated to both is just what the Dr ordered for this running mommy. Thanks so much for the chance win!

I would love to run this! I've only been to Atlanta twice and would love to see it again…especially while running!
ohh would love to win this, to get a chance to run in GA before my sister moves back home. It would be a great visit. My niece and nephew can see me run and everything!

Traveling to a run is a great motivator!
I am so excited about this Run walk event and await some of the fabulous women.
Oh oh oh. pick me pls.
I am been slowly increasing my 5K time so I need to test it. I would love to try it in Atlanta – I bet at sea level I would go much faster than my fastest time at 7700 feet!

Oh, pick me!!! I'm new to running, but already finding myself loving it. As a mom of five, I could sure use a weekend away where I can run and fellowship with other fabulous women!
I really need to win this contest! I'm not really a runner…more like a fast walker…but I would be a great asset to the team. Thanks.
Hugs and Mocha,
Stesha

I'm not a complete runner, more of a walker (I walk fast though), but this would be a great motivation for me. I just recently started doing From Couch to 5K and what a great way to keep motivating me!

I'd love a chance at this. My kids participated in a local 1 mile run yesterday and hubby and I have vowed to run with them next year. I've got a long way to go from walk to run, might as well get started now!

I am making great strides at getting healthier and would love to be a part of the Race and Relax Team. Our city is currently doing a contest called Fort Wayne's Smallest Winner (which is very similar to Biggest Loser) and I have made enough progress to be able to jog an entire 5K! This would be a great motivational tool to keep me moving and a nice reward for the progress I've made! Please, please pick me!
