Bob’s interweb party house

I did my normal run this morning, still improving my pace but still not race-ready yet.  This is really a tangent — I wore my 2005 Race for the Cure tshirt for my run this morning.  When I put it on, I thought, this is appropriate for working out in.  While I was on the trail, I had to laugh.  To others seeing me running in it, it might say, “This guy ran in the 2005 Race for the Cure, he’s kind of out of shape now, maybe he’s just getting back into running.”  In reality, I participate in 2005 with people from my then-current place of employment.  Since it was in DC, I stayed at Jeff’s apartment the night before instead of coming up in the morning.  Jeff and I had quite a bit of scotch that night.  Now that I think of it, that must have been the night Saul met us at Joe Theismann’s earlier in the evening.  So the mental image others get by seeing a race shirt, one of a confident athletic guy running a race, is quite different than the reality, two guys so hungover from the previous night’s scotch that it was a chore to complete the 10K even at a walking pace.  But hey, at least I got a couple of t-shirts out of it.
