I've always felt that runners, for the most part, tend to be more attractive than non-athletic or run-of-the-mill athletes. Girl's are cheerier, straightforward, decisive and likable, plus good bodies despite some looking a little too thin at times. And guys are obviously fit and usually don't look ugly, but can be kinda goofy looking. Basically, even if not every one of us isn't the hottest thing on earth, we don't look half bad, most of the time.

I really can't think of any running chick I wo… Continue

I have a desk job. Not a lot of fun, but it doesn't exactly stress me out and, being military, I get off an hour early on some days to go work out (on my own). For the last 3 weeks, I have had to listen to two folks talk about their marathon training daily. We talk very elitist-like on this site a lot, but I'm not that kind of person. I am very happy that this guy and gal are getting out there and running. It's a great experience and we often try sharing running with our family and friends. My p… Continue

I have never run a marathon. Maybe that's my problem. I love my halves and 10ks. I'm not elite by any means, but I am pretty darn good at those distances. Boston is tomorrow and I have been reading articles and hearing buzz about it from many sources, mostly Runner's World. While they have become increasingly tailored to beginners, they occasionally have stuff relevant to my interests.

The point I want to get out is everyone sees Boston as a holy grail, as a race at the Olympic level. I don't c… Continue

I recently decided to take a camera out with me for a run and record what interesting sights I might come across. I have to say it was a good experience. Although, now that I think about it, recording all my trespassing probably wasn't the best idea. Regardless, I have always wanted to share what I love about running with my friends who can't figure out why I do it.

I feel that I did a decent job of compiling my video, but plan to continue doing this in different places and share the places I d… Continue

I just signed up for an 18 miler in Dallas. An 18 miler I don't care to run. Why? Simple: A girl.

We were together in high school in Houston (area). She goes to DC for college. I join the Navy and end up in Hawaii. After 2 years of trying to make the long distance thing work, she breaks it off. I know I should probably get over it, but we're still best friends and I can't help but love her and think that she still wants to be with me too. So, I'm going home in Feb/Mar and she's going to visit h… Continue
