what a splendid place to be stranded! i can think of no other place i'd rather be.

I can think of much better places to be stranded. Texas, Hawaii, Berlin, actually, the only place worse than being stuck in Alabama is being stuck in Mississippi... LOL... It actually was pretty great. I do like T-town.

Inspirational reply. haha

It was a great run. I enjoyed every minute of it. It had been a week since I ran last, so it was really great to get out there, and my puppy enjoyed it almost as much.

PS - I love this place. You guys are all awesome.

From RAD on Sun, Jan 16, 2011 at 22:49:12 from 67.172.229.125

Gotta love a good run, especially after a week off! With all the salt and ice on the roads out here I usually opt to leave my puppy (5yr old dog) at home, she whines whenever she sees me dressed and leaving for a run.

I love this place too! I spend/waste WAY too much time here.

I know I ran last week, more than what I posted.  I cannot, however, remember when and how far.  I could make up a bunch of numbers though...  I will do better this week.  I promise.  I know that I have let all of you down.  ha ha.

So I made 3 mistakes this morning.  I woke up too early.  I brushed my teeth right before eating an orange.  And I went for a run.  The run was great.  It was probably the most fun I've had running 7 miles.  So scratch that... I made two mistakes this morning...

well... initially I thought that running was a mistake... It turns out that running was one of the greatest things that happened that day... but the brushing my teeth before eating an orange... that was brutal.

3 miles on a treadmill.  Then a weight routine with a buddy.  Focused on shoudlers, triceps, chest and back.

 

Sore.

I once was blessed with a gift. A gift to where I could fall asleep at any point, anywhere. I have fallen rest on an everyman's throne. Now, I have not that problem, but the opposite. Insomnia how you strike, leaving me cursing your name. Your onslaught, brutal. My resistance, futile. My expectant utopia of fantasy awaits for yet another night...

I hate Nevels.  I really REALLY hate nevels.  He has caused nothing but pain since I was talked into running mtn Mist.  This 7 was because I hate him so much.  

 

So I was running along.  and was supposed to turn right so I could cut my run short... I was tired.  but then Nevels voice rang in my head.  and I accidentally turned left.  I hate nevels.  

 

Love ya puddy.

hopefully you have slept by now... vegetarians definitely don't eat animal crackers. some will eat goldfish crackers, but that is debatable.

From fatmanrunning on Sun, Aug 14, 2011 at 23:27:26 from 98.95.132.29

goldfish... hands down, my favorite snack food ever. it's either them, or the white cheddar cheez it's

I did catch some sleep. a couple hours on thursday night, and a few more last night. Thanks for asking.

Ankle still is slightly uncomfortable on the run. But it was cold. First night that Coach Monroe was not ready to quit after two miles though... Sentences together don't make sense. organization and segues work better. necessary is explanation. Approve Yoda would.

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:04:58 from 98.95.152.105

Whoa... The ancient Hawaiian legend of Mataddy!!!!!!! I hear he is only seen once every third quarter pounder, and twice every 17th wendy's triple cheese burger. mmmmm.... I'm hungry, gonna go get a McRib.

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:07:46 from 74.92.144.77

no dude... the mcrib doesn't make an appearance until the fourth epoch of the great and widely taught History of The Mataddy

(at least the classical version; it's not taught quite as much in the contemporary/modern classrooms... alas; the kids are missing out nowadays...)

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:08:39 from 98.95.152.105

You didn't capitalize McRib... this is basic man... McRib is important...

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:11:02 from 74.92.144.77

well, if you're referring to the personification of the mcrib to the MacRib, well that doesn't even happen until halfway through the 6th epoch (4th chapter, if i recall, but admittedly, it's been a while...)

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:12:17 from 98.95.152.105

4th chapter is correct, it's along side the first known documentation of the "Feel it oh Fish!"

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:16:57 from 74.92.144.77

which, if i'm not mistaken, was accompanied very shortly thereafter by the awkwardly-long-blank-stare-of-death, which was reputed to turn casual onlookers into pillars of weeping stone....

(although not without risk for the practitioners, as it was known to almost drive those utilizing it to insanity if not done carefully...)

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:25:28 from 98.95.152.105

definitely going in the movie.

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:26:54 from 74.92.144.77

no, puddy, epoch 1, chapter 1 of the original text of the legend of The Mataddy is entitled "safety"

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:27:54 from 74.92.144.77

...roughly translated, that is...

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:28:37 from 98.95.152.105

Rule 75, always carry a spare?

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:31:56 from 74.92.144.77

good call. as always, first go by rule #1: cardio. zombies lead a very active lifestyle, so should you.

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:37:43 from 98.95.152.105

now see here is where we disagree, I understand Zombies lead an active lifestyle, but which zombies are we talking about? like, Shawn of the dead zombies, or I Am Legend zombies, cause shawn of the dead zombies were slow, I could take my time with it, you know, finesse it... I am legend, there is no hope... they are fast, I would have to throw decoys around... cardio means very little...

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:38:35 from 98.95.152.105

Rule number 1, know thine own enemy.

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:40:33 from 74.92.144.77

dude, we've both memorized the zombie survival guide (as should everyone on earth if survival is of any interest when the inevitable occurs...).

i think we both know how zombies really behave.

(use your head: cut off their's)

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:43:41 from 74.92.144.77

...and, for what it's worth, this is even foretold in the final chapters of the epoch of The Mataddy, although it remains silent on the true and final outcome, which is (as it should be) for us and the remainder of humanity to decide...

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:49:02 from 98.95.152.105

who knows... the mataddy knows...

The final chapters of the epoch of The Mataddy are left much up to interpretation of the reader, there are influences both ways, The legend does not dictate itself, the legend dictates every thing else....

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:49:52 from 98.95.152.105

I don't know what that means...

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 22:53:06 from 74.92.144.77

nor should you; it is not for us to understand.

it's deep, man. deeper even than the well of the western point, which, if i remember epoch 2 correctly, has a depth only measured by those willing to travel vast distances, if only for the simple pleasure of release...

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 23:05:35 from 98.95.152.105

it's the journey to the western point that makes the epoch. the traveler must overcome great pain, pain that only one who has built up the pressure of a thousand "rain grenades" knows. the traveler must hold it (the pain) until he gets to the western point for his release. Then, and ONLY then, is he prepared for the tension release, but the release is the most dangerous part.

-epoch 2, chapter 179, paragraph 743 The Mataddy

From nevels on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 23:09:32 from 74.92.144.77

but we must keep in mind that it is this danger of release that is the lesson to be learned from this tale, as it users in an entirely new era of life for The Mataddy upon completion.

(and i think the writers should have inserted a section break before the 179th chapter... i don't recall the length being that long, but it was truly a page-turner, so tomes upon tomes were easily read without any tedium...)

From fatmanrunning on Thu, Dec 01, 2011 at 23:10:44 from 98.95.152.105

Are you saying the Mataddy is easy?

From fatmanrunning on Sun, Dec 11, 2011 at 01:10:13 from 98.95.147.60

the next two chapters were actually written by the legend and his friend, "The strolling chicken (speaking of Mataddy) turned to his friend Puddy and said, 'dude, it's yellow... I'm going to be ok!"

the dialogue is priceless...

I cannot confirm it was 4...  I got lost on a trail.  But Coach Monroe acted like it was 4.  And is still acting like it was 4.  he's pretty upset.  just staring at his toy, you can see the desire he has to play with it, but just does not have the energy, a paradox.  and suddenly he's asleep.
