public mourning is "unseemly". And here I thought a 28 year old, healthy professional athlete dropping dead while chasing his life long dream was..."unseemly".
I think you're right though. I'm wrong.

Every run I do now, once I hit mile 5 I can't help but think about Ryan. Mile 5 has become sacred...I think about what he must have felt like, his family, how short life is, my family, etc. Once I enter mile 5 I give the "sign of the cross", thank God for life, and appreciate every breath. Today I did 6 miles on a treadmill.
Good for you. And posting about it on letsrun makes you feel even better, doesn't it? "Hey look world, I'm the sensitive type but at least Jesus loves me!"
This is exactly the kind of post that many people are starting to find ridiculous. By all means, you should still post it if it's how you really feel, but then others are also allowed to post their reaction to it.
It's probably because most of these a-holes couldn't be bothered to say anything positive about Shay when he was alive. Guilt is a powerful emotion.
