Dear fellow runners,

I would like to share with you two running relay events - registration is now
open for both.

Green Mountain Relay
Jeffersonville to Bennington, Vermont
36 Legs - 202 Miles
www.GreenMountainRelay.com

The Green Mountain Relay is a 202-mile team running relay event in Vermont
designed for runners of all abilities. Scheduled around the full moon in June,
the Green Mountain Relay will be Saturday, June 10th - Sunday, June 11th, 2006. 
The relay begins 45 minutes from Burlington in the small town of Jeffersonville
and finishes in Bennington. Covered bridges, sections of historic and scenic RT
100, and the small town hospitality of Vermont are all incorporated in to this
relay event.  There are two types of teams in the relay: 12-person and Ultra
teams, and nine categories to choose from.

Wild West Relay
Fort Collins to Steamboat Springs, Colorado
36 Legs - 195 Miles
www.WildWestRelay.com

The Wild West Relay is a 195-mile team running relay event in Colorado designed
for runners of all abilities. Scheduled around the full moon in August, the Wild
West Relay will be Friday, August 11th - Saturday, August 12th, 2006.  The relay
begins by the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Fort Collins, Colorado, and
finishes in the beautiful ski and summer resort town of Steamboat Springs. Much
of this very scenic and remote course runs through National Forests or along
dirt roads. The route winds through Roosevelt, Medicine Bow, and Routt National
Forests, and through small, mountain and ranching communities.  There are two
types of teams in the relay: 12-person and Ultra teams, and ten categories to
choose from.

Additional information:

Both relays give back to local, grass-root non-profit organizations.  For the
2005 Wild West Relay, $10,000 was raised and distributed.  For information on
this program, please go to http://www.timberlineevents.com/communities.html.  We
are also members of 1% For the Planet - one percent of our gross revenue is
donated to environmental organizations.

Entry information is available on each website.  Thank you very much.

Group Moderator - I only make one post a year to your group to announce my relay
events.  Many of you have given me approval to do this.  But if you prefer not
to receive these, please let me know - along with the name of your group - and I
will not send them again.  Thanks!

Just thought I should pass on my knowledge to all you guys (and gals) on here. I
know just like heaps of other men I am pretty shy when it comes to going up to
someone. I've tried    a few different places (clubs, bars, etc) but never seem
to have too much luck. Anyway, a few weeks ago I joined up to
http://www.findawife.info/mcwt and I have to say I am already getting excited. I
was beginning to think I'd end up being alone for ever, but already been talking
to a few interested ladies on there. Anyway, if you're like me it comes highly
recommended!

I know some friends already who have   met a few nice honeys off of this kind of
stuff (here is the place they use: http://www.onlinechatrooms.info/nltl , but
what do you think? I think it is mad cool from what I saw at my friend’s house,
and am thinking of signing up later today. Basically it's a regular
personalssite, but with an instant message and Webcams system built in.
Basically  you join their chat-room on their site it gives you a link to those 
people online in the chat-room, their location, their picture, etc and at one
click you can start chatting to them over Webcam (even if you don't have one).
Pretty nifty stuff I think!

Whats doing ppl? Just wondering if anyone on here is up for a game waging real
or fake $, it's up to
u? Just look me up on here http://www.enterthebigtime.info/ozkke (same profile
username as the one i have on here) and add me
to ur room and we'll get it cracking.

Just joined this group.
Looking for people to run trails with, mostly in Cleveland Nat Forest,
17-30 miles or so.  Anyone interested?

Quickly we are approaching the next two races by the Generic Events!
We decided to postpone the La Jolla Canyon Legend 11k an 18 K Trail
race due to all the fires we had earlier this month. Some people
were asking why we decided on that and the number one reason was
Safety. Some of our access points to the aid stations were not
accessible because of all the fires were going on near by we were
not going to have the best response for emergency units.

La Jolla Canyon has now been moved to Saturday October 29, 2005 and
we are currently looking for volunteers to help us out.
Some of the volunteer duties needed are:
· Course marking on Friday October 28 about 2pm
· Coffee pick up race morning
· Crispy creams pickup race morning
· Registration
· Course sweep Saturday (10 minutes after last runner starts)
· Volunteer aid stations
· Timing assistance

(For those of you that volunteer you can camp out with us on Friday
night at race site so you don't have to do an early morning drive
Saturday. You must provide your own camping gear.  / Tents, sleeping
bags, food, ect.)


If you can't volunteer or race at La Jolla Canyon we are also
looking for volunteers for the Topanga Turkey Trot on November 26..
This race is located at Topanga Canyon Tripit Ranch location..


Please call me or email me if you are interested in joining our team
for any of these events or future events that we put on. We at
Generic Events understand that you all lead busy lives and we
greatly appreciate any and all help that our volunteers provide.
With out VOLUNTEERS our favorite sports and events would not exist!
Thank you all for your help and love for outdoor sports!

Luis Canales

through the hills of Northern California. Story is here -->

Dean is running for Katalina, a young girl in need of a heart
transplant. Donations can be made by clicking in the link in the

Thanks for letting me post, you guys. Although I'm not a local, I

Hello everyone,

We are seeking volunteers for the inaugural La Jolla Canyon Legend trail race on
Oct. 1. This is the newest race in our SoCal Trail Running Series.  The race
offers an 18K and 11K run at Ray Miller Trailhead, which is part of Pt. Mugu
State Park.



All volunteers will get a t-shirt and goodie bag and partake in an awesome
event.  It’s down right gorgeous at this trailhead and you’ll be sure to enjoy
the early morning fresh mountain air.



The race starts at 8:30.  Whew!!! Not at 7:30.  Volunteer start time will range
from 6:00/6:30 to 11:00/11:30.  Choice tasks include assisting with
registration, brunch preparation, water station support, finish line/timing
support and set up or break down.



We are also looking for key volunteers that would like to lead a specific area
of the event or provide support the week prior to the event.



Please let Michelle know if you would like to volunteer by responding to this
email at mlschroed@... or calling Michelle @ 310.991.2787





Also, please know that your contribution allows us to donate a portion of the
proceeds to the Children’s Hospital.  The SoCal trail runs always donate to this
amazing organization.





Thank you for you support,



Luis Canales

And tell others, please
Thank you so much,
José & Marius


Francois Hugo, is in the process of speaking with the Public Protectors
office about the needless shooting and slaughter of his beloved Seals
Francois just wrote to me and he is hopeful, that with the help of IFAW,
CVFA, and Action Against Poisoning, he will be able to  file an official
complaint with the Protectors Office. There is something that all of you
can do to help get this project off the ground. Go to this address and
sign the guest book, and please ask all on your mailing list to do the
same. He will then take all the entries to the Public Protector and it
will in Francois' opinion be of great importance to the cause. Here is
the address where you will find the guest book.
http://www.canadianvoiceforanimals.org/SASeals.html
And if you go to this address:
http://www.unistanteneltempo.net/cvfa/time3.htm
You will find the Seal Alert Clock. Click on it and if you have a
website, copy and paste the code into your site and when it is clicked
by your visitors, it will automatically go to Seal Alert South Africa.
There are only 26 entries in the book and we are hoping to collect at
least 200....Please take a few minutes and help the seals...If you need
proof of the horror click here

the Power Point Show. I thank you; the seals thank you, and Francois
thanks you. We are the animal activist of the world, and we can do this.

Hey I just wanted to tell you about a great company I found!
I applyed for a lower mortgage rate and i only had to
fill in a simple form. This month alone I saved $500 dollars!
check out their site http://www.savecashtoday.net/?a=candi
I hope it helps you as much as it did for me!

I just refinanced my home loan at better interest rate; this saved me thousands
of dollars and will repair my horrible credit. You can check it out here.

Imagine doing an activity you love with your friends, measuring your tenacity
while pushing your body to the limit, exploring the night, while traveling
through a beautiful area under a full moon!


The Wild West Relay is a 195-mile team relay race in Colorado designed for
runners of all abilities.  Scheduled around the full moon in August, the second
annual running of the Wild West Relay will be Friday, August 19th - Saturday,
August 20th, 2005.

The relay begins next to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the historic
university town of Fort Collins, Colorado, and finishes in the beautiful ski and
summer resort town of Steamboat Springs.  Much of this very scenic and remote
course runs through National Forests or along rural dirt roads.  The route winds
through Roosevelt, Medicine Bow, and Routt National Forests, and through small,
mountain and ranching communities.



Team categories are divided into two main divisions: 12-person and Ultra
(6-person).



In the 12-person teams, each person runs three legs, each averaging 5.25 miles. 
Categories include: men's, women's, mixed, open, and masters, but we've also
added the "Flatlanders" (all team member must live below 2500 ft.) and the "Hash
House Harriers (the red dress division).



Ultra Teams have two choices - "6 x 1" where each runner does one leg averaging
32 miles, and "6 x 6" where runners each run six legs in rotation like the
12-person teams.



The Wild West Relay has partnered with "FirstCall 211," an organization who
strives to enhance the lives of people by providing timely, accurate, and caring
community resource information and referral to community members and non-profit
organizations in the areas the relay runs through.



This will be a fun and organized event for all runners.  An early registration
fee discount is in effect until March 31st.



If interested, please check out the relay website at www.WildWestRelay.com and
come "Get Your Ass Over the Pass!"

in the San Gabriel mountains.

* Weekday morning runs will be on Tuesdays/Thursdays.
* Weekday evening runs will be on Wednesdays.
* Weekend morning runs will be on Saturdays.
* Monthly early morning (2am start time) runs will be on Sunday
mornings.

We will also have sponsor give-aways and raffles, in addition to post

If you are interested, please send me your contact info so that I can
forward you the details.

Hey everybody -
