I guarantee my 15 year old son would run that race, and he hates running. <br /><br />And omg about that woman. That's actually hilarious. I never think of things to say to people in the moment, unless it has to do with my kids. Then something takes over, and I end up giving the speech of my life and people around me are like holy shit Suzy, was that really you? Cuz usually I'm nauseatingly nice. Like if I'm ever mean, it's passive aggressive manipulative shit. <br /><br />I would have turned around and given her a moon.

That is a very different concept! since there would be no water stops, were there volunteers handing water? Or because you were in water, you didn't need it? <br /><br />That's a bitchy comment to make at a race! How rude! And I bet that if it was a road race, you would still have beat her! <br /><br />I think that the strangest race I've participated in was the Ninja 10K in Harrisburg. It was small, nobody knew it was happening and there were no water stops. <br />Anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16110855725544210793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-61706774453476211512016-05-06T09:22:20.247-04:002016-05-06T09:22:20.247-04:00Oh it would have felt awesome!
