Join Pat Phares on Saturdays at 9:00a for a run around the airport, or as much of it as you'd like to run/walk. 

Pat will take a break during December and January; but will start up again in February 2012.

I am happy, HAPPY, to report that I resolved the problem between my laptop and the stopwatches.  I really didn't want to manually input 287 times, pushing the button was much easier and more accurate.  This is one time where it paid to be a jack of all trades.  The race results are posted, I suspect there are some inaccuracies, please let me know if you find one.  As much as we work to provide accurate times, our flaws get magnified when we have so many people show up - and we're glad you showed up.  Together we raised approximately $4,000 for our LOCAL Toys for Tots organization ... which means LOCAL kids will get toys under the Christmas tree this year that might not otherwise be receiving a toy.  Isn't that what this event is all about - giving?  And you were generous with your money and toys. THANK YOU.

This is certainly a season of thanksgiving and something to celebrate, I overheard several runners say that they ran their personal best and set a new personal record (PR).  If you are such a person, drop me an email, text me, call me, send up some smoke signals (if that's politically correct to say these days) and let me know.  We would like to celebrate with you!

So close and yet we still had fun.  Last year we had 287 runners cross the finish line, this year we had 265 runners cross the finish line.  Registration was up though as we had 296 people register to run/walk but we had some no-shows and perhaps a few people got passed our timers or didn't let us grab their bib tags.  Bottom line is we fell short of the 300 mark again this year.  Oh well, we'll have another Toys for Tots race on December 8, 2012 and we'll get another crack at breaking the 300 barrier.  I've already updated the website with out 2012 schedule, but not the registrations forms, so please be patient with me ... and we don't have another race until May 19th anyway so we have lots of time.

Travis Krause was present at the race and took some excellent photos (the photos on this page are his.  Please check out the whole photo gallery by following the link on the Race Results page.

We have some new sponsors.  This year we've been blessed to have our faithful and reliable

PRIME sponsors of MountainCrest Credit Union as well as Jon & Bev Hatfield with RE/MAX Signature.

Visit our sponsorship tab for more information about these wonderful sponsors.

Thanks to the efforts of our wonderful volunteers (who I would love to recognize but they're a bit bashful) we've added some great new sponsors to our list.  We are excited to welcome back Erik & Kristen Granroth of Granroth Agency as all event sponsors - get used to their logo because they're going to be around for a while. 

Erik and Kristen are great community supporters and excellent Insurance agents

(I should know, they're my insurance agent).

We are also pleased to welcome Paraiso Mexican Restaurant, Arlington Hardware & Lumber,

Dwayne Lane's Arlington Chevrolet and Jan Gee with Max International (increased energy and recovery from workouts)

as sponsors of the Toys for Tots Airport Run coming up soon. 

Find more about these great sponsors by clicking on their name or logo.

Thank you sponsors for your generous contributions.
