Follow your Grandma’s Runner via text

Are you running in Grandma’s marathon? Here’s a new way for friends and family to follow your progress.

Verizon Wireless has created a tracking system will enable race fans to receive periodic runner updates through a text message or an e-mail. Beginning June 8, family members and friends can log onto GrandmasMarathon.com and simply enter the name(s) of the runner(s) they want to track. They will be able to choose whether they want to receive the information through text message or e-mail by entering a valid wireless phone number or email address.

That’s about as close as I’m going to get to running a marathon – but I think it’s a great idea!
