I’ve been running for a long time. I started in my sophomore year at good ole Oswego State. Freshman year, I thoroughly enjoyed the unlimited meals at the dining hall. Each night, after we ate, one by one the guys would head to the ice cream cooler and load up. If we sat a while longer, we’d go for seconds… or thirds. By the end of the year, I was having to iron my jeans to stretch them out so they would fit.
First, I didn't know you ran in Oswego... not that I'd have joined you in doing it. lol I actually tried running in my late 20s, but it only lasted 3 days. On the third day I developed shin splints that lasted about a month, and decided running wasn't for me. I'll have to be proud that every day for close to 10 years I've made sure to walk at least 5 miles a day, letting Fitbit track it for me; it proved I could dedicate my body to something that would help me stay healthy. :-)
Thanks for the shout-out to the Mountain Goat! Registration for May 5, 2024 event opens next week, so your timing is sweet! Consider returning...I'll send you a courtesy registration code if you can make it!
