      In our small town, we have a 5k called the Kracker Klassic at the end of June. I am wanting a funny name for a team. Can u help?
      I saw some shirts at the Christie Clinic marathon and on the backs of their shirts they all had nicknames, like Hezzy tater, mashed, twice baked. I thought it was a neat idea, but having a hard time thinking of something creative.

      Hey Adam,
      I’m needing a name for our Tap ‘N’ Run team. (We basically dress up in costume, run 1K, stop and drink beer, repeat x4.) We haven’t decided on any costumes yet, so we’re wide open to suggestions.

      Hi Adam,
      My team is in dire need of a name. We are 6 women running the Ragnar Relay as an Ultra team. Our course is through NW Washington State and will be pretty epic. We’d like something that could involve costumes, but they would need to be simple and easy to run in. Any suggestions?
      Thanks!

      Hello, I’ve been searching all over for creative team names and found this awesome site. So thought I would see if you could help. 🙂 Some friends and I are going to register and HOPE we get picked for the Nike Women’s marathon in San Francisco. We are trying to think of a fun team name with a bit of spanish flair. We are all from New Mexico so wanted to play on that and represent our state.
      THANK YOU!

      Hi Adam! Can you email me the ideas you had for the Nike Women’s Half Marathon in San Francisco? I think my team will have runners from Missouri and California on it. Our current thoughts are “We run for bling” or “Half crazed Blingers”. Thank you!
