    I occasionally have a portion of one that DD decides she didn't want to finish.

     

    Then I remember why i hate em. I think the box would taste better,

        Lily, you should go in the Racing forum and read my thread:

        http://www.runningahead.com/forums/topic/fb4599567d454bf58802c1d9e8e34417/resume#focus

         

        I stopped reading the thread after my final post because I was worried that it was getting way too heated in there over my avoidance of pop tarts or things that unhealthy and sugary and then Cookie Monster just irritated me with his/her post so I said fuck it, I knew if I kept defending my position I would go off on people.... the taper seems to make me even more easily riled up 

        To be clear, I haven't had a pop tart in like... 5-7 years and I avoid them damn it.... even though apparently they're quite popular with adult runners who must be those types who can eat anything and never gain weight

          I have not eaten poptarts in like 10 years but I bought my strawberry ones today.

           

          Let me add poor obie's race so that it does not get lost in the poptart debate.

                    Is this thread about Pop Tarts or racing?

                     

                    For the record: Strawberry this morning, I have verified in person cookiemonster is a he, and the Berbee Derby 10K on 11/27.  PR or die.  My PR is from 2010.

                    Running is dumb.

                      Yes.

                      Can you also verify whether cookiemonster eats pop tarts, or just cookies?

                      And when was the last time you raced? This is pretty cool.

                       

                      Also, of possible interest to those running Monumental: apparently spaniel is also running it. His goal is 2:32, so you might not see him.

                        I don't see cookiemonster eating Pop Tarts...maybe before a race, but not normally.  He gets homemade cookies tomorrow.

                         

                        The last time I raced?  Like, pinned on a bib and actually tried?  2012.  A road race?  2010.

                          I probably won't recognize anyone unless they holler at me, and I definitely won't see Spaniel lol. Y'all are making me want pop tarts, and now cookies damn it.
