An Open Invatation!

Hi everyone. A lot of you know me, and a lot of more recent members don?t. I was a daily poster here on the ?Boomers and Beyond? thread until about a year or so ago when I partnered with coach ?Tinman? and created a website www.TheRunZone.com.[/URL" target="_blank"> Due to the amount of time I spend training and keeping up with the website, I haven?t got to post over here much lately. But I haven?t forgotten you guys or the good times we had when we met at different races around the country.

Recently, I was contacted by a Cool Running Boomer letting me know about the changes taking place here, and more specifically the Active.com/Coolrunning.com merger. I was also told that not everyone was too excited about the functionality of the new message board and the fact that their current usernames were not available. Well I do not wish to take away any users who are making the transition over to the new forum, but would like to give an open invitation to those who are not, or would like to participate on more than one forum. We have added a new Topic called ?Masters Talk? and welcome all Cool Runners members to check it out, and if you want to join great!! If not that?s okay too.
If anyone has a problem registering, or getting their current username registered, just let me know at ron@therunzone.com and I will take care of things. All except for Spareribs that is, because he is a known troublemaker!

Re: An Open Invatation!
Hi, Ron -- nice to hear from you. Is the name Earthrunner taken yet, or is it just permanently blocked?

I'll have to go over to your site and see how you've been doing lately. You were probably the fastest Masters runner in B&B when you were posting here.

Hey Ron, thanks for the invite.
FYI and it's just IMHO but that music everytime I click a link is kind of annoying. Otherwise enjoying looking around.

Re: An Open Invatation!
Ah shucks. I was going to join up too!

I have visited the site quite often as I am a big Tinman fan. The good training I did the first half of this year was all Tinman inspired. Thanks Ron, hope you are running well. Spareribs

Re: An Open Invatation!
Hi Ron, thanks. What a nice forum format and it is fast. I was especially empressed by your training talk forum and the way it is laid out. Are slow sure footed mountain goats allowed? Larry

Hi again everyone!
Barb,
You are right about the music, most people just visit the message board so I haven't thought much about it. I think it's about time to mute it...for good! Are you still going to be moderating on the active.com site?
<HR>


Ron,
As far as I know they have not asked any CR moderators to stay on.
