Most Memorable/Creative Run

2 days ago I ran a 6:45 mile with two 8lb weights in my hands for a bet. I was not allowed to break my running form and it was probably one of the most painful things i have ever done. The running part was easy, but wow those weights really got to me.

i hear or milk shake miles, naked runs, beer miles, and blindfold miles all the time.

I did a few laps around the country in the mid-70's.

In high school:

5 miles to dairy queen five miles back, throw up, do strides go home... high school was some fun

went on a naked run with a couple other people back in college. we ran on trails that went around the campus, but it was like 3am, so no one really saw us.

i got chased by a farmer and ran through corn fields becasue me and my freinds were tresspasing, eventually he released the hounds.

The Undy 400 was our race for incoming freshmen in college. They all strip down to their whities and race a 400 on the track. The last place guy has to remove his whities and run another 400 in his birthday suit, hoping that his teammates don't take off with his clothes. Brian Sucher was one notable participant.

60 laps around a tennis court during a detention during high school

the frosh all had to run naked during the xc season....thats always a good one. some hate it but most love it either way they still do it. we tell them its a team unity thing but we really just like seeing guys run naked (joking). ive been caught by crazy gun carrying hicks, chased by dogs, and one time i almost ran smack into a bull. you know those runs where your just cruising and almost fall asleep...well on one of those i came face to face with a huge ass bull. the hillbilly farmers were on their porch the whole time laughing at me. in high school sometimes i would run to my gf's house mess around then run back ("damn coach that was a hard workout"). you need to have fun with your runs sometimes or you will go crazy.

Building Run...Ran around to all of the campus buildings in alphabetical order. Worked pretty good on a small college campus of 20-25 buildings. 7-8 mile run...

run to each of the parking ramps in town (6 here), and run up and down the ramps.

good for rainy/windy days.

ran a long run in a parking garage in college because i refuse to run on treadmills.

On my run yesterday, i saw a mailman who was dressed as an elvis impersonator(sp?), it was hilarious.

i was on a run during spring break. i was new to the states and certainly new to arkansas. one of my mates suggested a run through some national forest area around searcy, arkansas. i ran for 45 minutes into the forest on some skinny, undeveloped trails and i jest not- i came upon three long haired blokes all of a sudden in overalls at a campfire in a small clearing. one of them had not just a gun, but a machine gun- no joke. another one had one of those shoulder holsters with a pistol in it. i was scared to death. so here i am basically on top of them with no shirt and tiny running shorts and they are scared too. i obviously turn tail and run as hard as i can the other way- i would bet some money that i ran the next 2 miles at well under 5 minute pace on those trails. they are screaming at me and i never looked back. needless to say, i went back to fayetteville straight away and kept to the usual routes!

I ran an "Impala" fartlek the other day. When I saw a Chevy Impala, I picked up the pace until I saw another Impala. Made for some short and long distances. I'd have to vary my route sometimes to find an Impala--into parking lots, or along major streets, but I managed to keep my distances between 200 and 1200 meters.

Dude on our team did a 24-24-24 challenge: 24 beers, 24 Krispy Kremes, 24 miles in 24 hours (although he required far less time)
