Chip and I have picked up our running efforts of late, mostly because our friend RJA challenged us to run a 5K with him. He's been so happy to be doing so much running that his enthusiasm was contagious. But while Chip and I have enjoyed the running on some level, on others we've found it quite depressing. You know how professional athletes are considered old by the time they hit their mid-30s? Now that I'm there, it totally makes sense. My toe hurts. Chip's knee hurts. Of course my knee hurts. And sometimes my back. And maybe Chip's heel. It's not debilitating, just humbling to realize how quickly one's body can turn on you.

(The pictures aren't relevant at all. They're just cute. Sorry!)

One of the great things about this country is that it affords people like me the opportunity to humiliate people like you for 3.1 miles.
running, moving to mid-town, living in a spotlessly clean house, it's like we don't even know you anymore...
