Dear Pun Gents,
My work team needs a clever name for a marathon. We do pre-employment screening tests, e.g. drug tests, breath-alcohol tests, physicals, etc. Nothing too vulgar because we are representing our company, but clever and funny would be suitable. Please help!

Dear Pun Gents, we need a fun team name for our five-person relay team for the God’s Country Marathon. We would like it to include something about our fund-raising efforts for a new town library. Thanks for your help! ~Nicole, Coudersport, PA

Dear Pun Gents: The JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) is starting a running club to train and do some races, with a marathon at the end of the season. We’re looking for a name. Some words to spark your sass: insulin, pancreas, glucose, islet cells. ~Sarah, Excelsior, MN

Dear Pun Gents, we need a team name. Twelve of us (7 ladies, 5 gents) are doing a race called the Ragnar Relay: a 200-mile race from Huntington Beach to San Diego. The race takes about 24 hours, with running straight through. Maybe something to do with Lactic Acid. Some names already used are: Lactic Acid Flashbacks; Dear Legs, I am Sorry; We Got the Runs. ~Zach, California

Dear Pun Gents, I and 11 of my friends are running in a 178-mile relay race, the Reno Tahoe Odyssey. Most of us are structural engineers with a few other professions thrown in the mix (accountant, physical therapist, server etc). We ran this race last year under the name “Team Honey Badger: because we don’t give a sh!t.” however that name must go. We enjoy drinking, having a good time and running of course. Also, this year we have an international teammate coming in from New Zealand. ~Matthew, Nevada

Dear Pun Gents, two other ladies and I are running a marathon relay and we need a punny team name, possibly incorporating our love for imbibing, running, and/or how not fast we are. Thanks! ~Erika, Seattle, WA
