Great outcome, and great story.
How fantastic! Congrats!!
How do I make this happen at MY job?? Lucky you!
Finally something really awesome.
Nice to hear that ! and even better they know now about orienteering. Congrats on your run ( overall- but especially Sunday )
Thanks guys. I am still bummed about this whole thing... totally didn't expect it.
Can you ask them for a new computer and monitor now? That way you can be more productive :)
z-man, I think it is first time in my memory that doing orienteering pays back :)
Congratulation! I also think that other factors like hard working and good health played role. All attributable to orienteering too :)
sweeeeeeeet
Alex, win a US champs...
z-man, try to find a patch with the company logo to wear on your uniform (you might want to get permission from them). Make sure you get a photo with it at WOC. Send it to the bosses. They'll eat that up --> more money next year.
They gave me a baseball cap. Totally bringing it with me :O
Great! See if you can find a patch too. A photo of you actually running with it on your uniform might end up hanging in the boardroom :) Like

Well done! The 'National Champion' title is a pretty powerful door opener, and one well-earned this past Sunday.
I read this at work today and actually teared up -- so very cool. (I tear up at commercials, too, so ...)
Great story.
z-man, winning a WOC would make even more for future promotions! :)
Z-MAN! Z-MAN! Z-MAN! GO! GO! GO!
I would need to go back 10 years and do things differently to even have a shot at qualifying comfortably :) But thanks for the support!!!
