Surprise present for a running coach’s 60th birthday
When varsity running coach Jack Russell said goodbye to his seniors at his teams annual award celebration, it also happened to be his 60th birthday. On that meaningful day, he received a thoughtful 60th birthday keepsake that was far more meaningful than any running plaque his runners or fellow coaches could ever give him. He received a special CD filled with the voices of his colleagues, his graduating runners, and their parents, expressing their thanks and warm wishes. The recordings ranged from funny to sentimental, and demonstrated to him how much he had meant to his team.
“I go out there and urge my runners to be the best that they can be every day. I’ve always focused on the runners, and when they gave me this gift it made it clear how much my philosophy meant to them personally”.
The runners and their parents wanted to give the coach a special present that was very personal. However, with hectic schedules, the runners and their parents knew that the group gift would have to be easy for everyone to contribute to.
The gift the coach received is called LifeOnRecord.
Team mom, Julie King, got the idea when her husband gave her a LifeOnRecord CD as a special birthday gift.
The process is simple: friends and family call a toll-free number and are directed to record a favorite story, memory or wish. Theres no limit on the number of callers that can phone-in or on the total number of recordings you receive. The recordings can be downloaded for free using iTunes so that you can make your own compact disc, or LifeOnRecord can create a keepsake CD with a personalized label and metal case. An unlimited plan with free download capability into iTunes costs $49.99, or an unlimited plan with a keepsake CD costs $74.98.
It is a unique, affordable service that allows you to create a highly personal gift with ease.
“The runners and their families that gave me this gift mean a lot to me, and this is the perfect way for me to remember them and their impact after my coaching days are over. The mom who organized and put this together is my hero”.
If you’d like to be a hero to your loved one, you can purchase LifeOnRecord and give them a thoughtful birthday gift.
