Season 1 – December 2024 Opening Day Speech

06:30 – December 6, 2024


Team RGF:

Today, you embark on an epic journey that will test your strength, resolve, and humor. The eyes of every runner, every spectator, and every relay-loving soul are upon you. The hopes and dreams of this team rest upon your capable legs, your determined hearts, and, of course, your unshakable Grinchy spirit.

The miles ahead are long and the terrain unpredictable, but remember this: each of you has trained for this. Each of you has embraced the challenge. You carry not just the slap band, but the fire of TeamRGF—a fire that burns brighter with every hill, every handoff, and every mile crushed under your sneakers.

I’m honored to be serving on this team with you as your captain.

Our mission is simple yet monumental: run for each other, for the team that will cheer at the exchange, for the glory that awaits at the finish line and for accomplishing what few people will ever try.

We run together as one—individuals linked by determination and a shared love of pushing limits.

We will run in the sun, in the dead of night. We will conquer hills, and battle the flat stretches that test our mind more than our muscles.

But no one on this team  runs alone. Behind every runner is the spirit of RGF, the echoes of your teammates willing you forward, and the undeniable truth: we are unstoppable.

We did not come here to merely participate. We came here to dominate—with grit, with laughter, and fun. When it’s over, the world will remember the name Resting Grinch Face.

So know the lineup team, be ready and in position when it’s your turn.

Lace up. This is our moment to shine, to conquer, and to leave a trail of dust behind us.

Welcome to Whooville Mother F****rs!!!
