Tuesday's Thoughts...........

Why do we need RoadID, wouldn't a piece of paper with all your information suffice?

Runners don't use enough duct tape!

Have you ever wondered why runners dislike walkers and cyclist dislike runners and drivers dislike cyclist?

How can my knee hurt more on a rest day?????

I still don't understand races with obstacles on the course, why not just race in traffic????

I'm afraid to go back and read my first blog....

Has anyone ever tallied their running expenses for a year?????

Why can't we all just get along?? I wouldn't dare total my exercise related expenses...as long as I'm not eating ramen noodles and not living in my car, then I'm all good.

these are all excellent thoughts Ken! i am with you on the duck tape. we need to use it more as runners. now that i cycle and run (when not injured) i'm trying to help move the two groups together. you can help too! maybe we should have a peace meeting at camp david?

sorry about your knee.

Your randomness cracks me up! I'm afraid to tally my running expenses for a year - my husband might kill me!

No, not for the year but the total for the day is $468.67 plus last week of $354.13 - all to RunDisney..... that mouse really gets me!

You'll be glad to know that the inside heel of two of my pairs of running shoes are lined with duct tape since my bony heels rub holes in my shoes. Duct tape is my friend.

I'd be scared to tally my running expenses. They've actually declined year-over-year, but only because I now hand most of my money to the bike shop.

I think some people would be shocked at how much they've spent on running gear, race fees, gas to said races, meals revolving around runs, memberships, visits to doctors after an injury, etc. etc.

It's still a bargain when compared to most alternatives, though I'm starting to eye those walkers with envy.

im afraid to admit i never wear my roadid so yes a piece of paper would suit me better!

I shudder to think what my running expenses for a year would be!

I never thought about the walk-run-bike-drive relationship. Makes you wonder...

I did tally my expenses for 2011. It wasn't bad. $1200 or so I think, included traveling to 2 races via plane. I consider myself a "minimalist" in that regard. If $1200 is minimal, haha.
