I Like Running
On Saturday, I am running in a 5K. It will be the first race I've run in since college. When I started running again last February, I could barely run a mile without stopping to walk. I was 30 pounds overweight and in the worst shape of my life.
Now, I'm still 20 pounds overweight and I'll probably run the course 10-15 minutes slower than I would have in high school or college. But it feels good to have a purpose or destination to work toward.
On another note, Durham's annual Freeze Your Balls Off Scooter Rally is quickly approaching. I liked the images from last year's rally. Maybe, if I run well enough, I'll celebrate by buying a scooter in time for the rally, and then I'll never have to run again!
No really, I do like running.

You gonna buy your scooter in Lakewood, OH? If so, I can keep it in my garage until the Spring.
I should buy it in Lakewood and ride it home. That would be epic.
Yeah, epic disaster!
You could be like the guys in Dumb and Dumber pulling in to Brekenridge, "snotcicles" frozen to your face! ha ha ha
It was Aspen. In California.
Whatever...
