So what are the keywords in this thread that require you to take a drink -- besides "garmin" and 'work" and "beer" and "drink", I mean.
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.
Not in Chicago
Quick update: 1 Founders Breakfast Stout, 2 Baxter Pale Ale, 1+ Baxter IPA. We had chicken and white bean chili and I ran around in the back yard a bit with the dog because he was going nuts and needed some exercise. It's coming down good and sideways now. I'm also halfway to world domination in Risk but the game is currently paused so my 10 y.o. can shower and get in her PJ's.
Make sure you don't get stuck trying to defend Africa or Europe.
You suck. You should just quit. Jackass. Welcome back.

You ran around the yard to fart.
"The dog needed exercise." Good one!

As of the bed time truce I have Africa, South America and a few forward positions in North America and Asia. It's getting ugly.
Runners run.
I thought Africa wasn't too bad - you need to hold the Middle East and South America with it, I think.
It's better than that crappy Europe.

No one can hold Europe. Africa's tricky because it seems like you should be able to hold it but I never can.

We always called taking Australia "sitting on the tampon. " I forgot about that. Haven't played risk since college. I should get that out for the kids. Perhaps without explaining the tampon part.

Though, it used to be that individual nations could be held for thirty years at a time.
These days, better pack a lunch.
No one can hold Europe.
True.

If you like Risk, I'd recommend Diplomacy.
No dice rolling, but a key part of the game is negotiating with other players for help, setting up your allies and then finally betraying them at the crucial time. Always turns out great when played as a family for many hours.
The process is the goal.
Men heap together the mistakes of their lives, and create a monster they call Destiny.

It sounds almost like Settlers of Catan, although I've only played it once, with a rabid fan of that game.
Settlers is fun but shorter and lightweight compared to Diplomacy.
Our family still remembers the epic fight that ensued after I broke an alliance with my big sister to knock her out of the game thirty years ago after a long evening of play.
I came here to talk about booze and you guys are on kiddie board games.

Never get involved in a land war in Asia.
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.
