Age/gender groups get 30 second staggered starts with typically slowest average pace going first and fastest going last. This means, for example, that females 70 plus will start around 8 to 9 minutes before males age 18 - 37. ;-) Sounds pretty motivated for everyone. We have a fun party scheduled for afterward including complimentary massages, hair foil twists, and nail art and polishs for paid bibbed participants. Volunteers who fulfill their promised work detail and sponsors will receive cool perks also. Thank you to all involved.

We need you, too.

Our sponsors include:  Pensacola Harley Davidson, Edward Jones - Matt Peacock (Langley Ave), Running Wild. Anytime Fitness - Downtown Pensacola, Ozone Pizza Pub, Frank Hughes Law Firm, Fortis Institute, Winn Dixie 9th Ave, Walmart Creighton, Measurement Integrity LLC, Elegant Group Inc, Robert Thompson, Lee and Carole Wright

We welcomedonations, volunteers, runners, walkers, sponsors and your willingness to help us publicize.

Jumping Jack Flash, Is Adobe Open-Sourcing?

BTW, check out an old comparison of flashplayers, and is it true, that Adobe really is open-sourcing flash?

Keep singing, Robbie...

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right. I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!

I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag,
I was schooled with a strap right across my back,
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!

I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled.
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!

Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash, its a gas
Jumping Jack Flash
