"Walk This Way" - RUN DMC/EMZ

Okay so truth be told I bought the self promoting shirts last week.

Patrick.

Patrick understands my need for music.  He claims to personally not like music but he'll come around.

I woke up one morning to see an email from him.  A short, to the point email with little if any frills classic "Patrick style".  But the attachment was back-flip [worthy] kind of  f a b u l o u s .

day.
made.

I n t r o d u c i n g  . . . . .

RUN DMC - - - - EMZ STYLE.
[I suck at taking photos of myself]


Thank you, Patrick!

My family thanks you too for their new favorite early Christmas gift.  And yet, another reason to bug the snot out of them.  YAY me!


Heck ya, I'm wearing my shirt right now

What? 

My Punk Rock Racing one is in the wash.

Happy Friday!

Does RUN EMZ's greatest hits come with a belt buckle?

Emz said...

I tell you what... If I can run a 3:10-15.... I'm making myself a matching belt.

Patrick Mahoney said...

man i asked the printer for RED PMS 186 and that looks like 185. My bad.

Hope you like them.

Emz said...

PMS - really Patrick?!

Patrick Mahoney said...

oh yeah the double meaning. not my intent. PMS as in Pantone (r) Matching System. Color coding. Dork stuff. Never mind.

Angie said...

Emz said...

TMB - yes. Do it.

You'd actually wear one?! Giveaway time for sure. As long as I get a promise that you won't use it to wash your car, pick up poop or as a paint rag.

Julie @ HotlegsRunner said...

KovasP said...

I'm not the queen because (cause) I sell the most
I just bring the laws (laws) cause I'm the host
I got a crown I wear So what it mean?) I rule
I come to town they stare
Cause EMZ is cool
because, the crowd, is on it
Drop this beat and pause, the tables are turning
Break backs on track and I can even act
So max, relax, new jacks, and get the facts from Run EMZ

Carrie said...

The shirt ROCKS!!!

Jason said...

Sweet shirt.....

But I thought this triathlon/marathon life was expensive before and now with bloggyville I have all these shirts to buy now. PRR, RUN EMZ....what next!!!!!

Love it though and slowly removing other shirts out of the closet and to the donation pile. Recycling.

Gracie said...

Ok, adore it.

Emz said...

Kovas - how long did that take you?!
You kill me. Love it.

EMILY - yes!! I'm in for Boston!! Yay!!
