Well Drew, your mom'll do just fine once I get her back shaved.

Heh... My mom actually lurks at RA. This could get good.

Yes, I do "run in this." So should you. The weather is never as bad as it seems from behind your office or car window.

Ho-kay. Back on track. Most of my finish pictures are me stopping my watch. When I'm not doing that, it's because I'm lifting my arm. Except that anytime I do that (which is weird anyway, because it's not like I'm winning races), my face is hidden because I'm looking down at my watch in lieu of stopping it. Anyway, here I am raising my hand because I just finished the 50-states AND made up 4 minutes worth of 'get sick' time. I also held off guy #10,362 who didn't want to be beaten by Dude in Pink.

Here's a fun one from the end of a 50k. I'm looking up, but because of the brim of my cap, it looks like I have the huge Charlie Brown head and I'm going AUUUGGGGGGGGH.

Those jokes just don't hold the same weight as they did back when Scout was around. How sad.

I was going to post that. But I didnt want to imply a missing of Scout.

This one always make me think you missed your goal time by 1 second. Well actually since I can see the clock in this one...2 seconds.

yeah, it's more of a "oh man, that joke just isn't as funny anymore" sadness than a "what is a Scout and where can I get one?" sadness.

Heh. That's the 50 miler's clock. I ran the 50k, and missed my goal by about 12 minutes. The AUUGH Is really "ok, I just ran 5 1/2 hours in 95 degree heat and tomorrow I have to run another marathon. Crap." BTW, a cold front came through and the marathon the next day was 35 and blowing wind. That was some difference. Anyhoo... I came back the following year and actually ran the 50 miler. And missed my time goal by 30 minutes. Suck it, Sunmart.

The day is mine! Drew, what's the difference between you and a mallard with a cold? One's a sick duck and I can't remember how it ends, but your mother's a whore.

When you're on your deathbed, you won't be wishing that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will be wishing that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

Doing so, I learned that there is another person with my exact name who lives in Portland, OR.

There are 3 other women with my name out there. One of them is my age and lives in California. She friended me on facebook. One of them lives in Michigan and my parents met her. The other is a minister. I forget where she lives. Getting back to the thread at hand:

Bring it on.

There is a woman who grew up in the town I live in who shared the same maiden name as I...in a town of 2k people (when was subbing years ago I had to register with the local PD and her mom was the secretary there. She giggled when she saw my maiden name and told me that her DD shared my maiden name). She and I are about the same age, too. Would have been interesting had we gone to school together.
