 100 MILER QUOTE OF THE DAY:

When my body gives out and my head tells me to quit, my heart compels me to struggle on. At some point, however, my head and my heart get in 'cahoots' with each other. They both demand I stop. That is when my Spirit soars and their protestations are of no avail. I am propelled by a Force unseen, drawn to a potential I have yet to realize. I shake off the burden of the physical and wake up to experience my dream. At last I am free. -Dog Gezgo

• someone asks how long your training run is gonna be. you answer 7-8...hours
• people at work think you are in a whole lot better shape than you think you are
• your weekend runs are limited by how much time you have not by how far you can run
• you tried hashing but the trails were too short and easy
• you rotate your shoes more than you rotate your tires
• you envy tom hanks' long run in forest gump

There is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, however dear and beloved, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one's self, the very meaning of one's soul. ~Edith Wharton

my legs and i had a talk this morning, it seems they want a day off. we are still in negotiations but they may win. my arbitration skills suck.

GO GREEN, BABY!! 

Now,I got 32 flavors of dat bootylicious bubblegum
Raspberry, grape, cherry, come & taste this hunnybun
Yummy-yum, baby, not your ordinary lady
Known to drive a brotha, crazy, willie wonka wanna pay me
On the daily, off the hizzle,
rock my heels, shake my skittles
Soda pop it, watch it sizzle, man, this shit here for shizzle
Smokin' on the highest drizzle, wanna taste it, just a little
Rock my hips, then, make it wiggle.
Wavin' sippin' in this bizzle

ya heard??
