one arm is just less weight
Megnut posted after a 5K that her boyfriend pointed out how a one-armed man beat her.
I forgot to post that during the 10K I ran a couple weeks ago, a man WITH ONE LEG finished about a half hour sooner than I did.
He had this amazing prosthetic that looked like a strip of springy metal. No pretend leg-look-alike there with a shoe. Just a spring. And no foot pain I bet.
Oh, that was probably insensitive of me.
In other running news: after a week of running the craziest hill in Council Bluffs [kownsa bluss], being home and running flat should be easy. But this morning, as I'm brushing my teeth at 6am, I hear the pitter patter of little feet.
J-baby just keeps getting up earlier--so even though our run is flat-ish here, pushing a 25 pound baby in the jogger is tiring. Maybe not quite as tiring as the St. Albert's hill, but still.
And T-minus three days til the Boilermaker, for which I have finagled TWO friends to accompany me.
