Okay, so it's been a while, but believe me I've been busy.
Since the Running Times article came out on May 30, I've filled 126 orders for 149 total PaceWheels from the website and sold PaceWheels to 5 more retailers. With these additional PW's out there since the RT article, the PaceWheel is in use by coaches and athletes in 48 states (Where are you Alabama and Vermont?), and 11 countries (in order of first PaceWheel sent): United States, France, United Arab Emirates, Cuba, Honduras, Ukraine, Serbia, Mexico, Canada, South Korea, and India. PaceWheel is also sponsoring a benefit 5k run which will start simultaneously in Colorado Springs and Biyumba, Rwanda.
It's crazy to me. Something that came out of my brain is a valuable commodity? A small business my wife and I started is out of the red in less than a year, and I do believe it may indeed pay for my Masters' degree (which has nothing to do with running or calculating or wheels, as far as I can tell).
The most fun thing for me: coaches and runners across the country and around the world are saying that my idea is helping them!

Vermont seems to be a bit of a sticky wicket, as it is also the only state President Bush has not visted as President.
Congrats, though, on your success!
Huzzah Big Brother, Huzzah!
Crazy, it's a good thing you never doubted yourself! Congratulations!
