Hello from Jasper, Director of Greetings and Sales
New Year's Resolution - I'm an old dog so I need to stay in shape. I've learned my daily walks are the best way to stay in shape. I now feel compelled to tell John that I need to go out five times a day. It keeps me regular and happy. It gives me exercise and fresh air.


In-stock all leather walking shoes 20% off through January

HTC PosterHood To Coast - Movie Theater Special One-Night Event at Santiam 11

Don't forget to join us in attending the great nationwide running event of 2011, the premiere of Hood to Coast on Tuesday, 1-11-11!

Hood to Coast is truly an epic experience: Each year 1,000 teams (12,000 runners) in 2,000 vans cover 197 grueling miles as a relay, putting themselves through an arduous physical journey that as an individual would be impossible.  As Bart Yasso of Runner's World magazine put it, "If one movie captures the Runner's High- Hood To Coast is it!"

Check out the trailer, or better yet buy tickets on sale now, so you don't miss your chance to join us at the movie theater as we a celebrate the sport of running!
