as a lazy bastard, i can say you have the right to brag about that....

Kevin, I've run two marathons and 2 dozen half-mara. Countless 10 and 5k's. I always wanted to give that run a shot. More than likely I never will. But congrats to you for sticking that out.

At the end of every marathon I've run .... that feeling...that most incredible combination of joy and accomplishment .... I smiled wider than ever, felt exhilarated with joy that for some reason summoned tears into my eyes. It's the most incredible feeling I've had in all my life. And I wouldn't trade those two moments for any others in my life.

Congrats that you got to feel that feeling. And for finishing. You are a badass.

I walked about a mile today. In the heat. Without a parasol. Non-stop.

Ghastly, Sir!LMAO

Congrats man. I know we talked about this last year and you actually went through with it. My friends on the the other hand bailed and I ended up not doing it. Props to you!

How long did you train before you tried that?

my youngest was in Nash this past weekend for a paramore concert....she said it was really hot...you da man.

Did passers-by make mock of your parasol?

Congrats, Rain Man. You should feel damn proud of that.

Oh, you did it without a parasol.

Did passers-by make mock of your not being properly accessorized?

"I do beleive good sir, you are ill- equipped to handle the violent rays of the sun on this fine summer day.."

(think kevin spacey in midnight of the garden of good and evil)

Okay, headed up to do this race again. Let's see if I can beat 5:58.


As a bit of trivia, the rules state that you will be disqualified if you carry supplemental oxygen. Seriously.

and I would be disqualified

Rain Man you're like the hot girl who is also nice and has a good personality and a masters degree in 4 different things and makes a mill a year and gives half of it to charity and saves wounded animals and nurses them back to health and volunteers at a soup kitchen on major holidays and has all geeky guy friends because she doesn't like douchebags and sings at church and reads to classrooms of kindergartners and only dates normal guys because again... she doesn't like douchebags... and doesn't think she's that pretty even though she is and doesn't find me creepy at all but rather charming a cute.

We aren't worthy.

Yeah, but he missed his pick in the Sandbox league. :D
