1- My last blog was the top predictions for 2010. Many folks send comments to me. Most think either the Cards will go further, or not as far in the playoffs. Please send your top 10 predictions to abourne@mywaypoint.com.

2- WayPoint launched a new website on January 1 rededicating the focus to PredictiveIT which lowers costs of IT, reduces risk, and provided a solid foundation for profitable growth. Please send me your comments.

3- I am the Chairman of the first annual “Run Around the Runway” 10K/5K here in the Scottsdale Airpark. This event will be unique to Arizona. You will literally run around the Scottsdale Airpark Runway. Start and finish at the “Take off/Landing” line at the Airport terminal. The event is designed to promote Scottsdale’s Ring Road and benefit several charities and the community.

Wondering how you can get involved? There are three ways to participate in the event:

Sign up to run! As a team (we will have a corporate/team challenge) or individually. Even if you do not want to run, there is a 5K fun run walk (strollers allowed) and you will get a great first annual race tee shirt and a goodie bag

Sponsor! See attached. There are many great ways you can sponsor this premier event and promote your company. Sponsor early and your company information will be on all marketing materials including emails, flyers, and the web site with a link to your site.

Volunteer! Come out on race day and help our coordinators with race logistics. Volunteers will receive a special race tee shirt.

Visit our web site at www.runaroundtherunway.com to sign up for any of these activities.

Those with the foresight and confidence in their business model will leverage technology to cut costs, reduce risk and prepare a platform for growth. This is at the heart of WayPoint’s PredicitveIT.
