    Aguas Frescas Anyone?


    2011 - 06.08

    With the overbearing heat taking over San Antonio it was a welcomed surprise to receive a company email stating that Aguas Frescas were being handed out to Rackers in front of our office building! This wasn’t a mediocre little setup either, they went ALL out!!!

    Rackers quickly embraced the welcomed break while they quenched their thirst with Fresh Squeezed Watermelon, Pineapple and Lemonade. There is nothing like enjoying a fresh glass of lemonade with your coworkers when the heat outside is hitting 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The best part is that no one got left behind either. The Rackers that went out to get their refreshments all made sure to bring an extra cup or two for their teammates. As our customers were calling and chatting in, the Rackers on the other side of the conversation were enjoying some delicious home made granola bars and lemonade. I bet you could tell that we were smiling from the other side of the phone. Thanks to Jaime Waltman for setting up this nice surprise for everyone. It was extremely enjoyed by all. Man, I love this place!!

     

     

    Rackspace 1st Annual 5K


    2011 - 05.23

    This past Saturday started off as a humid, muggy and cloudy day…. but that weather sure didn’t stop 100+ Rackers and their families from attending the 1st Annual “Rackspace Friends and Family 5K.” When I got to the Castle parking lot I could see a ton of Rackers geared up in their running shorts, iPods, and Rackspace t-shirts ready to take in the run. Racker parents came ready with their racing strollers and all the kids were getting energized and pumped up as they anticipated the run! I have to say that it was so cute to see all of the little kids stretching and running around!

    The whole goal of this event was to get Rackers and their families participating in a healthy activity while having some fun. I believe the event’s purpose achieved its success on that day! One of the best aspects of this run was the fact that the whole family could enjoy it. Lanham even brought his whole family to partake in the fun. How many other companies can say that about their CEO? The “friends and family” core value that we hold so dear as Rackers truly showed this weekend. Rackers encouraged each other during the race, volunteers handed out water throughout the course and everyone was cheering for their fellow runners, walkers, and joggers at the finish line. No one got left behind. That’s the beauty of Rackspace!

    The Rackspace Wellness Committee did a fantastic job of putting this event together especially Tanya Ruyle, Ric Jimenez and Sugar Bear. I can’t wait till next year’s event! I hope to beat my time of 32 minutes and 17 seconds!
