What goes through mind when you run?

Boston baby...can't wait til Boston.

who will come in first? who will come in second?

Don't blow your entire bankroll at Dorothy Lane. You've got to walk a few blocks south to Arrow Wine and make a selection from their assortment of well over 200 brewskis.

Then, head down to Carillon Park to get hammered and toss your empties into the Miami River. After you down that half-rack of Little Kings, stagger on over to Tim's for last call and to hit on J.D.'s ex-girlfriend.

Yo! Beavercreek's in the house!

What goes through my mind depends on lots of factors - how old I was/am, whether it is a race or a training run and whether I'm currently fat or not. You decide where the following thoughts go and at what time in my life:

1) I'm glad that hot cheerleader got to see her football playing/sprinter boyfriend get 6th in the 100M while she's watching me trounce the field in the 3200. Yeah baby, I just smiled at you.

2) I bet they're wondering - "how can a fat man such as that run that fast?"

3) I bet they're wondering - "he sure is a skinny little guy - quit eating tofu Gomer - have a steak!"

3) Two laps to go - he slowed. He looked back. Ahhhhhhh weakness!

4) Man, 3 miles is FAR!

5) Man, 18 miles is SHORT!

6) This run sucks...this run sucks...this run sucks.

7) I'm going to eat a block of cheese the size of a car battery...I'm going to eat a block of cheese the size of a car battery...I'm going to eat a block of cheese the size of a car battery.

8) F***ing injury go away!

9) Fly By Night by Rush. No where near my favorite song, but it pops into my head like no other when running.

10) Is there possibly anyone more fit on the planet than I am at this moment?

11) Is there possibly anyone more out of shape on the planet than I am at this moment?

12) I could still be sleeping.

13) If I just run three more miles I can eat TWO Twinkies at lunch.

There are more...

Oakwood baby!

ha ha ha.

Maybe you shouldn't be drinking milk out of the toilet.

Just a thought.

Why does this not surprise me coming from the dude who ran in place for an hour (smile). You're one interesting Dude (oops, sorry A_Goofy_Runner, it just slipped).
