Limited slot only!!!!!!!!

I can’t seem to find any information about the the running tee and its design, not even on other people’s blog. Which sucks!!! I mean the official website sucks!!! I strongly believe that their website sucks with the info thingy. Its messy and really not as well organised. I CAN’T EVEN FIND THE ENTRY PACK until having to READ THROUGH THE LONG LIST OF FAQ! Whats up with that?! It seems like they just throw all the information typed out on MS onto their website…sighz….”how convenient”, I might be the only one complaining about it though, cos I am quite a critic at certain things.
