Rhondda Ribbons

In case you didn't know or you didn't read Glenn's race report he had made ribbons in honor of Rhondda for the Grandma runners. Below I posted some of what was said and how to make them. I want to post this in a new thread so all would have a chance to see it. Also if you haven't read his report please do so it is a great report! Also thanks for sharing how to make them Glenn.

About those Rhondda H patches - when can we get one? I have some race coming up (a large one on July 9th - the Boilermaker which just now happens to be one of the toughest and largest 15Ks in the US)

Thanks all. Just PM me (1L or anybody else) and I'll snail mail one of the extras I made. Or if/when I run out, they're pretty easy to make - Go to Staples, Office Depot etc. and get Avery iron-on t-shirt transfers for ink jet printers (I used 4x6 dark t-shirt transfers - Avery Product #4385 - which I actually already had in the house). Go by fabric store and get smallest amount of of dark broadcloth they will sell (shoul be ~$0.69). Copy/download the jpeg of the patch from my race report. Download Avery template (an MS Word file) for corresponding product off of their website and import jpeg into template. Follow instruction on Avery package for printing and ironing. Trim with scissors.

Michele (1L) just asked about this on my race report. I posted the recipe to make them yourself in response to her post, but I made a few extras - PM me with your address and I'll snail mail you an actual patch -for as long they last.

edit - Here's the jpeg. They were printed, ironed, trimmed and packed the day before I know this new forum existed. Plus her blog's still over there, so V-team logo and V-team yellow it was/is.

At the finish of Grandma's Marathon with my V-Team running hat with the Rhondda H. support patch
pinned to my hat (between the top of the 'P' and 'R') that was created
by Glenn Johnson. Stay Strong Rhondda - We are all pulling for
you!

Martin thanks for stepping up and posting this. Its something that shouldve been posted a bit ago. Glenn, that was the sweetest and most thoughtful thing for you to do! I appreciate you sharing how they were made. Thanks again!

Amazing what the human race can accomplish when they step out of themselves. What a wonderful thing to do that brings warmth to my heart and I hope resonates to all who read this.

Nice. Thanks for doing this!

Awesome! I'll have to go over to 'the other board' to see if there are any updates. I wish we could get her over to the iTeam. In the meantime, I'll try to make one of those patches. It's an excellent idea Glenn.
