November 11 (98)

In honor of Veteran's day, here is a shirt from a Veteran's Day race on November 12, 2000.  This was a 10K in West Potomac Park, DC.

Here is another race shirt from the OBX half marathon we did yesterday.   It says 'AARRRGGHH' on the back.   The pier is sunny once again but it is actually freezing cold with a strong wind blowing.

Today Jodi and I did the OBX Half Marathon: from Nags Head to Manteo.  We had excellent weather and only slight headwinds going up the bridge towards the finish.  The back of this shirt is much better than the front since it's got things like a pirate ship, pirates and treasure maps!

Here is a shirt that I got from Jodi on a trip to the Outer Banks, NC.  It is from the fire station in Duck, NC.  We are nearby in Nags Head on the sound side and I'm out on the pier with some kite boarders cruising the breeze and waves in the background.

Here is a most excellent UM YA YA shirt that I got from Bruce after his recent visit to St. Olaf.  The best part of this shirt is that if you are not an Ole this probably looks like nonsense; a translation for Michigan fans is that it is the St. Olaf equivalent to 'Go Blue'.

November 6 (93)

Here is a shirt from a race Jodi and I did on November 7, 1998 with some friends of ours in Grapevine, Texas.   Sometime after that I was wearing this shirt on a ferry on the Thames river in London heading towards Greenwich and it turned out that I was sitting next to a guy from Grapevine who was as surprised as I was to see a Grapevine connection so far away!

November 5 (92)

On this date back in 2005 I ran the Cardinal 5K.  This was a race in Kensington, MD to benefit a bird-friendly school.  If you've never seen a cardinal in running shoes, a sweatshirt and headband take a close look at the design.
