When TD was young enough I was already too old.

Go for it, Cool Dude. Use it while you have it. It will be gone too soon.

Sounds like it belongs in the worst pickup line thread!



Good luck with the running! I never ran for distance but appreciate the effort and endurance it takes!

When I was in high school, I could do it in under 19 minutes. I think the best guys at my school were in the low 18's. Then I got this bright idea that I would quit running and smoke for 20 years. Now I am 41 and quit smoking for 5 months so far. I ran a 5K cross country race today. I ran it in about 35 mins. That was 4 minutes slower than my last one because I stopped running while my ankle healed from an injury.

Keep at it. You are working to improve upon something that most people can't do at all. Think about that!

I wish I had started in 9th grade instead of 11th. Most of all I wish I hadn't smoked! Some people in my age group today were running in the 25's.

Re: cross country

"i have 2 working boats". in this economy, i'm glad to hear they are working. are they supporting you well, bringing home a good paycheck each week. LOL.

Re: cross country

let's just say that working on your own boats makes boating a whole lot cheaper.
