    Running fucking blows. I once did the Onion Mall tri (off the couch) over in Walla Walla. That's a 6.2 mile run segment and the furthest I've run.

    I've been on longer hikes…lulz.

    As a proficient hooper, running was associated with punishment. Miss a foul shot, run a set of lines. Turn the ball over, run lines.

    Fuck running unless it’s out on the break gearing up to throw it down with authority.

    Fuck running.

    I love walking the dog, except the weather is shitty now.

    13.1 Mile (Half Marathon)

    I had a phase when I was in my early 30s where I was IN to running. I did everything between a 5K and 10 milers. Came back with a top 3 in age group a couple of times. Ran a 6:58 per mile pace on a 4 miler in the evening heat which I'm probably the most proud of cause it was hot and everyone was dragging. Trained and executed a single half marathon which was in the VA wine country so was very scenic. It was in May so dealt with humidity but still put down 7:35 per mile pace.

    Nagging injuries and golf have taken over that level of training for running only now. I am getting more and more back into it as I think I have a handle on the injuries but not sure I will ever try for an actual marathon. It's a good workout, efficient (leave your house and start), outdoors with fresh air and scenery, and a good way to clear your head.
