How you ran until you puked or freely admit you're still trying to achieve that milestone
I don't half-ass anything
"I have several close friends who have run marathons, a word that is actually derived from two Swahili words: mara, which means 'to die a horrible death' and thon, which means 'for a stupid T-shirt.' Look it up." - Celia Rivenbark, You Can't Drink All Day if You Don't Start in the Morning
Hey, now...you aren't the only one who gets those "bragging" rights, missy!
But we've already established that mine are bigger and more unsightly .
Another brag seems to be that you didn't do c25k and you just decided to run. Again, not applicable to me.
Awesome, justifiable and inspirational brags are anything on the before and now pictures thread.

The only race-based comment I've ever heard at Monkey was "stop treating this as a training run and race it."
Then again, I am the brown monkey.

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
Why is it sideways?
Nice.
"run" "2" "eat"
if jeff complimented my comment, that would be something i'd brag about.

I look my best blurry!
I know Trent.
I'll get to brag about this when I go to run with the Flying Monkeys! Woo Hoo!
I love to brag about making my imaginary internet friends my real friends. Yes, this means YOU! So far you're (almost) all better in person!

I can't believe how many of you imaginary internet people I've met in real life. Warning, if you wearing ugly swamp gear there's a chance I'll come up behind you in the middle of a race and introduce myself.

In the middle of a race, there's very little chance you'll be behind me. But introduce yourself after ... and save me a beer!!

I have never met Trent, but we have bought each other beer.
Not at it at all.
