I use Starbucks all the time for my job. They have "To Go" containers that hold enough coffee for at least 10-15 cups of coffee. Worse case is someone can run over 1st thing in AM to get these.

Now that would be cool. I can make signs for the S2000(s) that read "Starbucks Express!"

Hey, if enough folks want to do it, I can call the local Knoxville store (closest to the hotel) and see if the manager would be willing to work something out.

keep your fluids to yourself....




and on that note..raul...i think that's not a bad idea..i think if they set up even a little mobile Starbucks in the parking lot in the morning, I'm sure people will be willing to grab some AM starbucks before we head out on the

(But make sure people know NOT to bring the coffee with them )

Great news!

Starbucks called me today (can you believe it) and asked if I could fax over a letter to them. And I did. Hopefully I'll hear back from them soon.

The woman I spoke with was very energetic and excited about the event. She asked me questions about the event and still seemed interested. I explained how it all started (with us talking about Starbucks). So I thought that was pretty cool.

IMO, it was easier for them to simply hit "delete" on their voicemail system than to call me back. At least they took that initiative.

Hmm... what about those of us addicted to Mountain Dew? And what about Vodka (after the run, of course)?
