I had a weekend run. Note I didn't say a great weekend run. Just a weekend run. 11 miles in 2 hours. Not too shabby considering that at Mile 7 I literally thought, "I'm going to die!" I hadn't hit a wall like that since, well, never. I know these things are just a part of running. You will have good runs and not so good runs...I had just been on such a upward trend that I was beginning to feel invincible. You know what they say, "pride goeth before a fall". Fortunately, we were running on the Riverwalk & there are plenty of opportunities for pit stops. So after a brief potty stop, some serious stretching & a major pep talk by my fantabulous weekend running partner...I kept going. Of the 11 miles, I probably walked a total of 1 mile. And I kept telling myself, one year ago I couldn't even run 3 miles without stopping -- so I've come along way. A superhero never quits. So, I kept going & managed to finish strong.
All in all, superhero friends, I guess it was just one of those runs.

11 miles? That's awesome!
Okay,enviro-man, I don't want you leaving comments that could be interpreted as nice, because I'm pretty sure you're mocking me..but not totally sure. Just stick to giving me a hard time. That's your role in this whole superhero world. If you would ever get your gimped-up self to the doctor & have them fix you, then you, too, could run 11 miles.
I must say that I am disappointed that I can not have a picture next to my comments. I was not mocking you, occasionally Envrio-man taps into his sensitive side (who would have thought?) and speaks from the heart. I was actually paying you a compliment, however don't get use to it.
On a separate note today's spelling test looks pretty difficult. I hope that I am up to the challenge.
You are two days behind, you need to get busy writing. On a separate note, I got a hug and a peck on the cheek from 'thong this morning. I will never wash that side of my face again..............
Only the pretty superheroes get their pictures published.
Yes, I understand 'thong was overcome with emotion at the site of CamperBoy. I think you just got the residual effects. or she felt sorry for you or something. You'll have to check with her for clarity on her actually motivation. & if you're trying to make jealous, it's working. She never kisses me!
You hit the nail on the head. I had to guilt her into giving me a hug. She ran through the parking lot to Camper Boy and gave him what I would only describe as an affectionate hug. I then made the comment that he gets hugs while I get berated on the Internet. It was actually a pity hug. Now that I think of it, the kiss was more of a dry heave than a kiss. It was probably no coincidence that she immediately went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
Thanks for bursting my bubble.
No problem, that's what friends are for. Your plan to make me jealous was revealed for what it truly was, faulty at best.
I've actually spoken to 'thong & she said she would make an appearance on the blog soon to set the record straight.
When does CamperBoy plan on showing his hairless face on the blog? Is he waiting for a special invitation? An entry devoted entirely to him?
Well I just spoke to Camper Boy on the Enviro-phone. He may need a remedial class on Internet technology. He claimed that he was about to check the site out, but whether he will be capable of actually posting a comment remains to be seen. My guess is no.
I must get back to work now, some of us have responsibilities during the day. (I probably should take that comment back) I sense a danger to one of the globe's fragile ecosystems, I must jump in the Enviro-mobile (which is ironically a gas guzzling 8 cylinder truck) and investigate.
The responsibilities comment...yes, that definately can't go unnoticed...you will pay for that Enviro-man.
Okay kids...stop fighting over me! I have enough kisses for all!! Enviro, the only reason I MAY have washed my hands was to protect my family from your super secret toxic waste fugaz that might have gotten on me. eek!! Triathamom, YOU ARE MORE THAN A SUPER HERO!! YOU 11 MILE, JESUS LOVIN', STUDETTE!!
