Glad you m...Ye, close enough is good enough right? Glad you made it. I run maybe 2.5-3 miles a few times a week, but nothing like a half-marathon so bless your heart. There's that word.<br /><br />Seriously, like yourself, Tom Baker, I do value life and cherish the moments . At least we can step back and appreciate it. I think we're in that group. I know many have it rough out there and I count myself as one of the lucky ones.<br /><br />Nice job on the run. Pizza sounds good even if it's cheesy. ;)SFFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04256589316922398158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1031498593064294214.post-34699508437653999112009-09-28T02:34:41.574-04:002009-09-28T02:34:41.574-04:00Fascinating stuff, death..

I think I can now spend the rest of my life in front of the TV without feeling too bad. I lost about 10 pounds during the race and had cramps in every muscle in my legs - when stuff like that happens, you're kind of confronted with your own mortality. And when you survive it, you get a new appreciation of life. Coming home to a smiling 4 month old and a girlfriend who volunteered to go pick up some pizzas made me realize how lucky I am in a really cheesy way.<br /><br />Oh well. Not really death related, but close enough. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04444376138297002474noreply@blogger.com
