Fast is better than long

    Nice clown shoes.

     

    Speaking of...

     

    I was watching the solstice feed early on and saw DB come through then what I imagine were water skis masquerading as Hokas (aka clown shoes). Those are visible from quite a ways off.

      Nice clown shoes.

       

      They're yellow - doesn't that mean they're racing flats?

      It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

        They are "flat".  When I wear them, they do very little "racing".

          They were only used for the first half of the race. The tongue of the Hokas pressed up against the front of my ankles and caused problems. They are black and blue right now. And speaking of black and blue, midway through the race it started to feel like I was punched in the ribs. Both sides if my ribcage are now covered in bruises. I can't figure out what the hell happened.

            You ran a fuckin' hundred and 28 miles.

             

            *** It may have been DB elbowing you so you'd lose the bet. Track racing is a contact sport.

              You were beating on your ribs with your fists in a semi-conscious attempt to make yourself stop?

                I expect that they will be worn by triathletes.

                 

                I spent a lot of time searching for the thread with the pics of our tri team.  Who can find that for me?

                There was a point in my life when I ran. Now, I just run.

                 

                Back beat, the word was on the street
                That the fire in your heart is out
                I'm sure you've heard it all before
                But you never really had a doubt
