HEY GUYS!
First, let me send a big virtual hug at you for being so completely amazing

I know I said there wouldn’t be a forth place in this event, however I couldn’t leave Lisa out, I threw in one of my own items to add another prize in the mix because her time was only 4 secs shy of 3rd place.

PHOTO CONTEST WINNERS:
1st Place: Kristin @ And She Ran!!!
You know, now that we’ve altered all the pics this one may not stand out as much, however, when Colin & I first saw it we could NOT STOP LAUGHING! We loved the extra effort and the homemade spatula cut out
CONGRATS!
2nd Place: ~K~
You were the first one to submit your pic and you got us really excited about the whole contest. You are dressed as a pizza – I think that pretty much guarantees a win! lol
apparently we really like homemade spatulas! and I can never resist a dog…or two! I liked how everyone was involved and that Suz probably has more spatulas than any of us put together
Runner Up: Heather (and her fam) @ Run Eat Play
We had to give it to you guys because you actually RAN with spatulas – which deserves a prize in my books, as I’ve done it and I know hard it is
CONGRATS!!! Please email me after watching the video below to see what prizes you’ve won!
We LOVED every single photo that came in and everyone had such a hard time deciding on a winner. Photo Contests are hard to judge because they’re subjective, so I hope everyone appreciates our decisions. I wish we had 5 more runner up prizes because you really all ROCKED THIS!!!!

Congratulations to everyone who won!! I loved all of the photos on Facebook
I loved your vlogs, Bernie likes your voice I think because he was very intrigued by the sound coming out of my computer. Oh, and we have the same metal bowl as you guys
hahha – I’m glad someone likes my voice
b/c I distinctly recall you saying it didn’t sound like you though
lol
Haha, that didn’t mean I don’t like your voice. You just sounded different than I thought you would!
lol
Woohooo! Congrats to all of the winners! Loved watching the video to see the prize drawing. My kids watched with me, and when you drew out handful bra, my son said, “A handful of what?” He’s six. He didn’t understand why I was so happy. Seriously the perfect prize for me! Thanks so much! I’ll email you my mailing address.
Congrats
I couldn’t let you NOT win something with a time like that!!!! you rocked it! and really deserve it. I don’t know if you already have a Handful but they’re my fav!!!! please visit their site to select a size and colour
CONGRATS!
So cute about your son….lol I love it!
Yay! I read two of the winners!
Lindy you and Michelle did awesome too! finishing in 62:00 combined time!
thanks for joining in on the fun!!!
YAY! Seriously Ali, I had so much fun doing those photos it’s like I have won twice
Thanks for holding your virtual race and photo contest! I can only imagine how much time and effort it would have consumed. Oh, and those videos were great, how awesome is it that Colin and Logan got involved!? Danny would run a mile if I asked him to do that hahaha
lol I love it
I got your email and will be contacting you shortly
WOOOHOOOO!
I think I made a lot of the others photos look better, so then yours didn’t stand out as much but we thought it was amazing!
This was seriously awesome!!!!! You did such a great job with this!
I LOVED watching all of the videos, they were hilarious!!! The pictures all are great! Next year I am totally going to race!
Thanks for hosting this!
hahahaha thanks!!! I am super excited…..now that it’s over! I hope you will race next year
ps: shoot me an email
That was so entertaining to watch — you guys are fun:)
Congrats on what I would call a very successful virtual race, and congrats to all the winners!
Aw Thanks so much Jenn
I am pretty happy about it, considering it was my first one and next year we know what will have to be changed. Thanks for racing!
This was too funny! I love you guys. Thanks for hosting this amazing race and contest! Congrats to the winners
Thanks Christina
and one day we’ll have to drive the 45mins it takes to get to each other
Fun! Loved the videos and congrats to your winners… lots of work for you!
Thank you Elle …..I won’t lie when I wrote down yours and “The Capt” on the paper and tossed them in I was really hoping to pull the capt out with a handful bra or something
lol
Now that would have been a pic to see!
Thanks again for hosting! I probably have over 20 spatulas but that was all I could hold in my hands. The dogs are normally cuter in pictures but we literally woke them up asking if they wanted to be little spatula runners and then took pictures of them. I cannot tell you how many times the words “spatula runner” has been spoken in our house the past few weeks!
Congrats to the winners!!!!
Ya, I kinda mushed your pics to squeeze them into that collage – yours was one of the first ones I made so in hindsight I may have done it differently. but we loved it. We loved so many to be honest…….everyone had a hard time choosing.
and I love it! spatula runner
Jealous of the Handful Bra winner! Of course
. But stoked on GU! I was seriously wondering if I would even come close to winning anything with the time I ended up running. Funny story- I take 2nd place ALL. THE. TIME. I should start aiming for second and then maybe I’ll hit 1st! Ha ha ha.
You are so cute. These videos made my night.
hahahaha well congrats on 2nd place…again
“1st the worst, 2nd the best” remember that childhood rhyme?? (no offense Laura) CONGRATS!
Wow, I won?!? All top four 10k runners were so close! I’m so excited about the calf sleeves and the shirt, yay! Thanks again for hosting… you did an awesome job putting so much work into this. And I love the vlog with Logan’s participation, he’s too cute!
You sure did!!!! you were so fast! I couldn’t believe it
Great performance. Thanks Laura
yay! I’m so excited! thanks for hosting the race! im so glad you were able to run your own race and I cant believe I actually placed! Im super excited to get one of your awesome shirts!
Congrats Steph! and I hate to pop your excitement bubble but the shirts were only for the 1st place peeps. I wish I could give one to everyone but that would get super expensive. I forget what the video said you won but that’s all you’ll take home this time. However, you did awesome and thanks for participating!
It was fun…my first virtual race…congrats everyone!
Kathy your photos were hilarious!!!!!!! we could not stop laughing
I wish everyone that submitted a picture could get something

Ya in the vid of the team picking on fb Logan drew you out together, and then ran away with your name – I gave you a shout out
