Forget your pride, and stride

While I try very hard never to make fun of other people, I will absolutely point and openly laugh if I ever see anyone using one of these on the ol’ multipurpose trail at the peninsula.

I”m certain this is where Jesus would shop for shoes.

Drink your wings

…with a bottle of Buffalo Wing soda, or maybe some Bacon-flavored soda or PBJ? None of those appeal to your tastebuds, don’t worry, there’s more.   Hey did you happen to read that story that 42% of Americans may be obese by 2030?  Hmm….  (I’m preaching to the choir here, I know).  We can’t be far off from the Wall-E humans, eh?

We’re just a couple of misfits

I think Mike from Running is Funny may be onto something here in this post about the possible real reason we run.

I mean this in the most positive way possible – maybe we run because we’re sports misfits. We’ve joined the gang of other misfits who are too short, too thin, too fat, too ill-equipped to pass the gatekeepers of other sports. You can tell people, “I’m a runner” in a way you could never say, “I’m a hockey goalie.”

Pain, Schmain….

According to a new study, it’s true that we runners (athletes) really are tougher than the general population.

I could’ve told you this after having given birth twice without drugs. Seriously, what is all the screaming about ladies???  I’m fairly certain it would’ve been a different story for me had I not been running for a decade.
