Ten Ways I'm Readying Myself to Run a Marathon
| 1- Listen to "Run Like an Antelope" by Phish each night before bed 2- Drink my weight in orange Gatorade each morning 3- Hourly applications of Shower to Shower talcum powder to prevent chafing 4- Watch ESPN Classic everyday 'till I'm winded 5- Casually peruse the YMCA application sitting on my dining room table at dinner each night 6- Eat at least a few flakes of Wheaties, the breakfast of champions, with my box of Eggo Minnies each morning 7- Make sure new running shoes are in tip top shape and sitting by the front door 8- Hum the theme song to Chariots of Fire while taking the elevator at work 9- Yell "Run Forest run!!" to whomever and whenever its even remotely applicable 10- Applied a giant Nike swoosh decal on the rear window of my Jeep Labels: Ten Things |

post a commentVery, um... inspiring? Do you need help with the talcum powder?
When will you realize I have a 'thing' for just about everything... For men, legs and hands are tops. For women give me a beautiful smile and cute feet!
I have the libido of a 17 year old boy, someone sneezing in the next counrty over turns me on.
Off to work for me!
Yeah, you GO, brico!
Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul.
you've gotta walk, kayak or enjoy yourself in the great outdoors, and it's impossible to do that while running or fast treking. have a good 1.
well normally i'd suggest the raw eggs along with a triumphant jog up the steps of the philadelphia museum. but there are 3 major problems with that suggestion:
1. i'm doubtful about your feelings towards eggs, but eggo minis would have to do!
2. you're in north carolina. so you'll have to look for somekind of large comglomeration of steps. any interesting stairs in charlotte or chapel hill?
3. no triumphant rockey music. although, if you have an mp3 player you could enjoy the same montage as rocky. but its not the same!
hmmm, the only thing that works for me is a gun to the head. ;)
this chick doesn't run unless being chased....hehehe...no marathons or like jogs here. you seem atheltic enough so..(go for it)..hehehe.
OMG! This is just hilarious! I think I will refer to it throughout my crappy work day for a smile.
I tried "Run Forest, Run!" with Nathan recently. He wasn't getting it. I thought it was funny.
hmmm.... I guess if I were motivating YOU... I would have to tie you behind the car and start driving until you were um.... receiving the encouragement at a pretty good clip.
::laughing::
Thanks for the suggestion to my dilema on my post!!
::smooches::
Mara

femmi,
i love the way phoebe runs. mainly because i can catch her so easily
speaking with experience. there is only one way to prepare yourself for a marathon. 60 miles per week of running. No less no more.
The swoosh on your car sounds sporty! Maybe you should drive the marathon...
