kookiness

i like to run. it gives me much needed clarity and quiet time in my life, plus it's a fantastic cardio workout. really, truth be told, i run partly because i'm lazy. i know once i spill the beans to everyone i know that i'm training for a race, there's no backing out.

just last weekend, in my homestate, the 98th annual bay to breakers race took place in san francisco. it's that kooky race where runners dress up (or not at all-eek...) and hike up a hilly 7 1/2 mile course. i'm penciling it in for next year, but i have a feeling i'm not going to be breaking my p.r. i'll be gawking at all of the creative costumes and probably rolling down the hills to make up for lost time. it looks like one big, fantastic party though.
