    Old, Slow, Happy

      My pic to the left and on my profile is 10 stps from the finish of my fastest half. So....I guess that's what I look like.


      an amazing likeness

        .

        Acceptable at a dance, invaluable in a shipwreck.

          I couldn't be more proud of this one... (she ran me down and beat me to the line...notice how comfortable she looks....geez)

            I usually look like I am about to die. Exhibit 1 Look how happy everyone else is Exhibit 2 I don't think I ran all out on this, but still look like I am about to pass out

                I dont have a picture, but it probably looks something like: Dead or No or Sleepy

                    You sure do have a varied complexion.

                        I think I was saying shit...or maybe fuck: I hope my finish photo at Bayshore is less goofy than my one for Milwaukee....

                          Sounds like a good weekend. The day of the Eastern States 20 Miler was miserable. It was cold, rainy and windy but at least it was mostly a tailwind. I spent the first 18 miles giving my friend Fireman Bob grief because the "race" was his idea. When he could take no more whining, he told me to kick and I did. Mile 19 was 7:30 and mile 20 was 6:50, and the photographer caught me tearing around the last corner to the finish. I thought "for once a good race photo", but figured I better double check and asked for a closeup of my expression before ordering. Apparently I've mastered the art of running in my sleep.

                          May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your SPF30, may the rains fall soft upon your sweat-wicking hat, and until you hit the finish line may The Flying Spaghetti Monster hold you in the hollow of His Noodly Appendage.

                            Well...it's not my face...and luckily there is no picture...but I'm pretty sure my running skirt (with briefs) rode up far enough to show about 1/2 of my ass while kick'n it to the finish during my last 5K Blush

                            Being the best tiny spec that I can be!

                              well I am no lip reader, but that sure doesn't look like you were saying 'shit', to me.
