We opened up registrations for the VMworld Run The Golden Gate Bridge 2009 event two days ago and already 135 runners have signed up! This is an amazing result for an initiative that started out with a couple of tweets between several well known VMware Community members. However I personally think we should be able to hit at least 200. So everyone who hasn't signed up yet, do so now as the registration closes this Sunday!
