Wordy Wednesday

Well damn. My campaign to consider Adam (The Boring Runner) for the soon to be vacated popeship has hit a snag. Apparently, Stephen Colbert’s name has been mentioned.

Blogger versus TV personality? Adam, you need to step up your game. Time for a V-LOG or a video podcast.

Bringing sexy back to the popeship? You bet.

If all else fails we can make Adam the Pope of Running. Bless me Adam for I have sinned; I did not do a proper cool down…

Stop With The Words

Wordless Wednesday? Um why? Rhetorical question. If you have to describe your picture, it does not paint a 1000 words. So just stop.

Travelocity

I truly enjoy my job, but sometimes the travel is nuts. Two weeks ago I was in the Alaska Time Zone. Last week, the Eastern Time Zone. This week, the Pacific Time Zone and next week, back to the Eastern Time Zone.

With the exception of this week, Seattle, all the locations are new to me. So that’s a win!

You Are Not a Ninja

Can we put a moratorium on black running togs until people get a clue? I understand black is slimming and goes with anything, but I have not once mistaken any of these people for a ninja and none of them look remotely like they have any ninja powers.

Who are these people who run in the dark dressed all in black with no reflective anything and no lights to indicate something or someone is out and about?

Female-Ninja

This is a ninja…

Not a ninja…

As much as we runners bitch about things, some of it is on us.

Wednesday

It’s hump day! Let the humping begin…I said to all of the neighborhood dogs!

Pope of Running has a certain ring to it, but perhaps Pope of Perambulation would be better, and more inclusive.

I didn't know you could still buy black running clothes. All I ever see are various obnoxious neon hues.

I'm not big on bright colors but when I run at night I am as bright as I possibly can be! Only idiots try to be ninja runners at night.

Jill said...

I can't find anything but neon in any of the running store....I so need a pair of black running shorts. Neon and dirt are not best of friends.

Kate Geisen said...

Guilty as charged as a ninja impersonator. With the way my stomach responds to a vegetable-heavy diet and running, that's not going to change for my shorts/pants any time soon...just in case.

Despite what you say I will still wear black from the waist down when I run. Black is kind to elderly female runners who have had three children.

Long Live Pope Adam!! I have my pope mobile on order. It has a kegerator in the back.

Yeahh, I'm totally with Kate (and we have talked about it on twitter) that I am one of the dark colored running idiots. Strangely, most of my (free) running clothes are darker colors and I only buy black shorts so they "match" with everything.

Colbert for pope! Have you tried schooner exact yet while in Seattle?

Tortuga_Runner said...

But looking like a Ninja is awesome... wait, I am not sure my running tights do that for me?

Hump day, what a ridiculous concept, limiting such things to one day a week.... poor neighborhood dogs.

I look more like a thief than a ninja in my black outfit.

Missy said...

Adam as the Pope of running is pure genius.
Arizona houses no ninjas. You were black in the desert you die!

If there's Pope of Running, who's the Jesus of Running? Does he turn water into Gatorade?
