Stalking 651

I remember it well, it was a stinking night, we were huddled together underneath a small covered area outside of the Sandpiper pub on the beach in White Rock. The rain was horizontal. Jamie turned to me and said, “I’m doing an Ironman this year.” Here I was, wrestling with the idea of jogging along the prom and up White …

30 Second Bootcamp on the Lake

A few Nachos attempted to do a pathetic workout on the dock of Doug’s cabin on Little Shuswap Lake. I think there was far too much temptation going on from the alcohol and the hot sun to get serious. At least they made an attempt …. we’ll give them a C- !

The Spartan

What a fantastic day we had on Mt Seymour as the run4nachos team took on The Spartan! This was our first event where we could show off our shirts as a team. Thirteen of us in all were all over that mountain and we stood out like true nachos! It was a beautiful day, the course was challenging, the weather …

Golden Ears Park Meet Up

I should have known when Fran said she had a feeling we’ll need Dean’s truck to transport some of the gear, that this was not going to be a simple day out at Golden Ears Park. So we loaded up Dean’s truck up with bbq’s, tents and a whole host of brightly coloured weird looking items that wouldn’t have looked amiss in …

The Golden Gate Bridge Run

Watch Dave and Andy run the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in San Fransisco, in their run4nachos shirts of course! The weather was a stunning 24c with a clear blue sky. As they were running they could here people chuckling and smiling at their r4n shirts. Plenty of high 5’s were had in a there-and-back epic crossing. Even the speed camera …

Runner Profile – the British invasion

The Brits get everywhere – yeah we know. We know they’re all a bit weird. We know they like tea, cucumber sandwiches and warm beer. But did you know we have two run4nachos-shirt-wearing members living there? These guys break the mould, they run, do yoga and drink green juice. Say what? Yep …. meet James and Tamsyn. James is the …

Global Nachos Gallery?

So here’s the thing. Every time we go out running people stare at us. At first I thought it was just Roger’s good looks but then I woke up and realized it was the shirts …. people love them (sorry Roger). So I got thinking. Let’s take as many photos of these lime-shock suckers in as many different places all …

We’re a bunch of groupies!

I suppose it’s inevitable … you hang around long enough with each other and you get labeled groupies. But heck, hang on, we’ve done it to ourselves. Declaration: Our name is run4nachos, and we are facebook groupies! Yes, we now have our very own run4nachos facebook group page. So look out for all the gossip and get the low down …

Our first photoshoot … oh the glam!

Well we did it. March 8th will be indelibly etched into the r4n calendar forever. Our first photoshoot. What an occasion. The girls looked stunning, the boys looked awkward but we pulled it off. But above all, this pathetic website got the scoop. iPhones were popping, GoPro’s were going places Captain Kirk would never boldly venture. The steps of the …

Another new sponsor …. is there a theme here?

We’ve managed to secure our second sponsor! The Henry Public House in Cloverdale have agreed to sponsor the run4nachos team. Yes, I know, it’s another pub … but they do great salads as well! And you can always have a coffee or one of those healthy juice thingys that look like something the cat left you in the morning. Anyway …

Lights … Camera … Action!

Our first ever run4nachos shirts have arrived so we’re planning to have a big splashy photo shoot. The limos are booked, the red carpet’s on its way and the paparazzi invites have gone out. Unfortunately The Bellagio in Vegas double booked us, but no worries as we’ve managed to secure the grass area outside the YMCA and part of the …

15 Nutritional Ways to Faster Running

I’m really pleased to say that run4nachos have been able to persuade nutritionist Brittany Vukets to take some time away from her busy schedule to write an article for us. Brittany came to the sun run clinic and gave us a great talk on nutrition which got us all thinking more about what we put into our bodies. So here are …
