Goodbye...

You know, you're right Vonnegut. I should chill. No more from me on this topic. I'll leave you with this; jasonlover has given 3 names-Kayleigh, Colleen and Skip (from an e address). There's also an e address for Colleen Newton at FAU that differs from the 2 he/she's left on letsrun. Why is this? Why the ambiguity?

Why doesn't somebody confirm for all letsrun readers that this Colleen N ran at Flor Atl U. She gave the name of the coach and the e address is:

jhanley@fau.edu

.

mcenroe, Do you really want me to PROVE to you that I am for real? Give me YOUR email address why don't you, oh I forgot your an anonymous... what was that word that jason uses, oh, maybe I won't go there...

All you have to do is go to FAU's xc/track page and there's a photo of me up... Get over yourself.

last thing, "skip" was my horse's name... I've had that email address since I was 14. colleennewton@netzero.net was an email address I used while living in boca raton, CNEW8228@fau.edu was an email address given to me by the school that I never used, kaliegh@yahoo.com was created for the purpose of staying anonymous when I wanted to... Does any of this really matter?

Colleen, you stay well. It WAS a terrific spoof and you should feel good about drawing so much attention to yourself. I don't feel I had much to do with you confessing no love for Jason M. It was a clever idea and I think you knew the string was running out. My goading may have sped things up but it was your call to come clean.

As others have said, you seem to be a nice girl. I think so too. Your website pic is a fetching one. As for your marathon plans, don't. I'd suggest intermediate distance races leading up to it as you appear to lack experience. Get the feel for effort and pace over shorter distances before tackling the BIG ONE. Based on your 5 km PR, very little can be forecast as a finishing marathon time. If you're bound and determined to run one, I'd suggest going out a LOT slower than you want to average for at least the first 18 miles. Hurry slowly. Leave something in the tank for the second half which starts at 20 miles.

Goodbye.

well, your denial is quite puzzling to me, but okay Mc...

peace, I guess... And good luck to you in your running...

Denial...no. I was doing my best to point out you WERE NOT SERIOUS with the Jason nonsense. After you came clean I still wasn't sure what you were all about. You've shown me enough to feel you ARE Colleen Newton of FAU fame.

DO think long about my suggestion not to marathon. The distance can be unkind and turn you off if not prepared and the thing goes bad. While I'm recommending things, give the FAU cross team another shot. You may not appreciate your college opportunity now but for many it's some of the best running they ever do and creates some of the best memories.

SERIOUSLY.

maybe another college, but FAU, I'm better off not running... SERIOUSLY. I won't give any more argument about the jason thing, it's unimportant to me whether you believe it or not. I'm glad my identity has been accepted as legit though ;)

Seriously, you take care and stay well yourself. And please keep reminding us that we can't be serious... letsrun might not be the same without that...

Still though, If you really want to know the truth for your own curiosity's sake, send me an email...

I'm laughing. You'd like me to e mail somebody that continues to use the user name jasonlover after confessing they don't love the guy? I'll pass. I'm not that curious. If your website pic is you, that'll do for me. Stay healthy, think twice about that marathon and give college cross another shot.

Im really scared if I post how sexy I am in shorts,trackshoes, and vest, this board would collapse with girls all over wanting to see my pic again. Am I one of a kind or what.

.. more sexy than El-G especially when my running style is exaggerated.

A hint : They tell me I have a gazelle-leopard clone, and a face that only Cruise would match.

No, Im not kidding, Im serious, take note on that JEH!

I still have respect to the Wejo and Rojo, so I wont post my pic here.

Im sorry girls.

karangasem.

Sevatonic/Karangesem (which is it by the way?),

Kind of amazing that we have never in all this time addressed one another directly. Was it all by chance?

Anyway, I have always considered you an interesting guy... consistent, too. I am not sure how I am supposed to interpret your post? Perhaps you have me mistaken with A_Goofy_Runner? He is the one who claims to be bi-curious, or have an ambiguous sexual preference - whatever. Me, I am married.. to a female... happily so (smile)... kids, too!

Or maybe you are alluding to the idea that I have not been straightforward. I assure you I have meant everything I have ever written on these sacred boards.

Good luck in your upcoming runs, and perhaps we'll have another nice chat someday.

DONT MAKE ME ANGRY. I LOVE 'JASON LOVER' AND KANGAROOSEM (OR WHAT EVER) IS INTERFERRING - BACK OFF JUNGLE BOY!

I', not sure... but I thought maybe sev's post was for my benefit ;) Karangasem is a very cool guy, 2nd only to jason as far as coolness goes...

mcenroe, I regret wasting my time replying to you. I'll make sure not to make that miastake agian.

Oh come on guys, none of us are enemies here, I take all these conversations as... hehe... friendly.

And anyway, yeah, JEH, I do respect all posters here, and yeah my attitude towards running and matters, is positive and consistent (remember the word : positive). And... hehe.., got a fiancee here! But, aha, dont worry, as long as the knot is not tied, Im still available (?)---> Geesh am I a playboy or what, oh no, not again!

So how's yer family and how do you cope with that. I mean, hey, I still want to run twice a day, roaming the road at 140mpw, even if Im really married and have kids, like you.

And, jasonlover, Im sure, you will be meeting jason more frequently in real life soon if you really have a positive attitude. Just try, nothing is impossible if you are really determined and eager to. Go jasonlover!!!!

ps: Hmmm... sevatonic is my nickname, gede karangasem is my balinese name, christophorus borton hills is my christian name, but in real life, they call me : borton, or just plainly 'bort'.

karangasem.

Sevatonic- Point well taken. But occasionaly a poster, uhm, Mcenroe pops up that deserves a little female wrath. I'm done with him now though, so PEACE AND LOVE TO ALL!!!

"But, aha, dont worry, as long as the knot is not tied, Im still available (?)---> Geesh am I a playboy or what, oh no, not again!"

Sevatonic, Be careful!!! I just caught that line... you may be asking for a visit from DR LAURA...

See, after ALL of that, I, not McEnroe, not others, was correct.

 She is real, the thread was NOT a spoof. OK, she exaggerated her intense attraction to Jason, but he IS her favorite from Let?sRun, and for confirmation, see her web-site. I may not know Jason, but I have read his racial slurs, seen his bizarre outbursts in print, seen his egomania on Let?s Run, seen his childish listing of sexual conquests, & seen his flood of sexist (not sexy) comments. I think that is enough for me to form an opinion. I have, and others disagree (fine), or can not read and misunderstand my intentions (not so fine).

 She likes teasing guys, calling them studs, having pics of herself in her underwear on her web-site for all to see. I have no problem with that part?..that?s fine by me (unlike ?goofy?, I am all man). But having an anonymous chick who has never seen me call me stud or not does nothing for me either way. Honestly. Some others here seemed a little turned on by the whole thing. Yes there, are many ?lonely? guys in cyber space (and not just ?lonely? himself), especially lonely runner guys (even those that are married). Some have fantasies about hoof whammies. Hey, whatever gets you through the night!!

Later

Hi Sevatonic,

Welcome to the program. So what makes you think you will suddenly turn into an honorable partner once the vows are spoken? Is there not already some kind of agreement (at least implied) between you and your fiance?s commitment to each other?

Oh well, I am wasting my time here. Birds of a feather flock together, so while your out getting yours, she?s out getting hers! After your pending divorce in 6mos, feel free to give me a call. In the meantime, visit my website at drlaura.com, that?s DRLA ? URA dot com. Now, go do the right thing!

homey, sure I liked teasing you guys. It was all in fun. Some had fun teasing back. I see no evil here and I'm not even anonymous, nor are some of the guys I teased so it's not a totally lame-cyber thing. There's always potential for real life things to come from something like this, you know.

I fail to see the evil of my ways... It's okay if you have a problem with jason, I can't pretend to not see why you do, all I can say is I know him better than you, and he has helped me out a lot. End of Story.

If that really is a pic of you on the web site. Do you think you could show one more? Only this time topless. Clothes are way too conformist for such a free spirit as yourself. Don't you think?

not quite that free spirited thanks...
