Got Goat? at Peachtree Road Race

My dad and his friend/boss both ran at the Peachtree Road Race.  You can see they had a good cheering section!  My dad wore his "got Goat?" tech shirt in the race.  We wore our "got Goat?" shirts too.  You might wonder why they look so dirty in this picture with the dads after the race....

Does this help explain it a little?  We had a fun time at the park while we waited for my Dad.

It was pretty silly rolling down the hill and sliding down the hill.

We went to the pool the day before the race and had a good time there.

Nobody asked me about my t-shirt.  Wonder why? Don't know the answer.  But my great Grandma Rose has asked for more business cards because a lot of people are asking her about her t-shirt.

We are going to put another order in at the beginning of next week.  So far there are t-shirts in Georgia, Alabama (2 cities), Michigan (5 cities), Oklahoma (2 cities), North Dakota, and New York {on their way tomorrow!}.  Plus we have an order for North Carolina and Germany so far this time around!  I hope that more people will wonder about "got Goat?" and will ask.  I think together we can help a lot of people....maybe even a whole village!

Got Goat goes to Atlanta

Sunday I will be traveling to Atlanta, GA for the Peachtree Road Race.  My dad will be running it on Monday morning (along with 59,999 other people).  He has a start time of 9:05 am, the very last one.  It's going to be HOT, so he is going to be wearing a Tech version of my "Got Goat" T-shirts.  You can see Walker and me holding it.

My mom, Walker and me will be wearing our regular "Got Goat" t-shifts in support of Team Goat.  It's a great opportunity to bring awareness to my cause.  We are hoping dad can meet his goal of running it in around 50 minutes, but more importantly we want him to finish safely.

I have really wanted to do a fun run, but trying to set one up is a lot of work.  Living on a military installation there are a lot of hoops to jump through.  You can't just pick a park and get people to show up.  So I have come up with plan B.  Everyone involved with my "Got Goat" project can create their own local team.  You can pick any type of race (5k, 10k, 1/2 Marathon, Marathon), or just create a challenge.  Find a track, and get people to sponsor you for every lap you complete (You could do the same thing on a bike).  Will you help me bring awareness to this cause?

Mom says she'll post pictures from our trip after we get back.

P.S. 11Alive will be covering the race, so be sure to check it out Monday morning.
