The Running Brothers, Invisible Shoes and Shark Tank

For those of you that are raving fans of The Running Brothers you may remember a movie we did a while back titled, The Running Brothers and Their Invisible Shoes. If you remember our video we applaud you for being such an amazing individual.

We made the movie because Invisible Shoes (Xero Shoes) recognized our Running Brothers blog as one of the preeminent blogs in the running world and so they sent us a free sample of the Invisible Shoes to try out for ourselves.

Steven Sashen, the owner of Invisible Shoes, informed us via email that he would be on Shark Tank on February 1, 2013 . . . Now, the company is called Xero Shoes and is excited about the opportunity presented to them.

Did The Running Brothers Movie make the cut??? There’s only one way to find out . . . Watch the Shark Tank on February 1!

2011 – To Our Heroes

Dec 122011
 

Well, it looks like my running will be on hiatus for a while.  I had every intention of properly preparing for the L.A. Marathon, but it’s not going to happen because I’ve got too much on my plate.  I’m hoping to expand my business, Welborn Social Media and in order to do so, I am going to need to put all my attention and focus towards that endeavor.  This has been a great year for The Running Brothers, but I think I’m going to hang up my running shoes for the year and focus on work.

Another big event is happening in my life in the upcoming weeks as well as I will be getting my own apartment . . . my first time ever living on my own.  It’s really exciting, but also a little intimidating and overwhelming, but I’m sure I’ll get through it.  If you don’t hear from us for a while it’s because business and life is keeping me busy, but my brother and I hope to be back at it in the near future.

To our heroes . . . Thank you for following us this past year.  It has been an amazing ride and I know we will have a lot more adventures to share with you in the future. 

Thanks again for all your support.

The Los Angeles Galaxy are the 2011 MLS Cup Champions . . . And The Running Brothers Were There to See It

The Los Angeles Galaxy defeated the Houston Dynamo 1-0 in front of a sellout crowd at the Home Depot Center in Carson City, CA on Sunday, November 20, 2011.  Landon Donovan scored the winning goal on an assist from Robbie Keane and David Beckham. 

When David Beckham was signed by the Galaxy five years ago, I could not have been happier.  I have played soccer for over 25 years and even coached High School Soccer for seven years.  Needless to say, I love the game of soccer, but soccer has always been a secondary sport in the United States and I hoped Beckham would change that. 

The Running Brothers at the 2011 MLS Cup

My brother bought us season tickets with the Los Angeles Galaxy the first year Beckham signed with the team and we have been watching Galaxy games ever since. 

The atmosphere on Sunday was amazing and watching our home team take home the MLS Cup was an amazing experience . . . something I will always remember. 

And the greatest part was being there with my brother. 

Thank you Rocky for your amazing birthday gift five years ago.  I can’t tell you how great a gift it was.  And thank you for having the forsight to purchase the tickets in advance for the MLS Cup.  You’re an amazing brother, an outstanding person and a true friend.
