Darn!

Pretty much says it all...

Why does the "not selected" part make me feel like I'm 13 again and the popular kids are all going to a really good party and I'm not invited...GAH!

Long Beach sounds lovely in October, don't you think?

  2. Well! Nike's loss, lady. Maybe next year you'll be running with the "popular" crowd. ha ha

    Long Beach in October does sound like a good one! And I bet it's not a snooty, cliquey race like the Nike.

  8. I am sorry! It really sucks majorly when you don't get picked. You are right, it does feel like you are the only one not invited to the cool event. That is exactly how I feel after getting my rejection letter.

    Sounds like your plan b might be even better.

  9. What we should do is make up a bunch of tech t-shirts that say "The Not Selected For Nike Runners" and wear those to the other half marathons going on around the same time...

    LOL.

    I didn't get in either, but I'm not as crushed as I was last year.

  14. See, Penny's already planning the party for Long Beach. I mentioned it in my last comment, but I'll do it again: Long Beach is actually one of the better halfs in Southern Cal.
