Words from the Man Cub

2/6/09 3m. 19:26

Forgive the boastful nature of this post. I am aware of the circumference of my head; it's been large since I was but a man-child, you're well aware of the scars proving that. Finally today I managed to not only reach a goal that I've had for well over six months, but surpassed that objective. In running distances I've slowly gained endurance in the 3 mile and 6 mile. I've set a goal in the 3 mile to break the 20 minute mark, which I've yet to do. However, today my goal of running the 6 miler in under 45 minutes was realized as I ran it in 43 min 23 sec. I ran the first 4 in an half hour five seconds, and caught a second wind in 4.3 miles. I nearly gave up at 5 and 3/4 miles, on the verge of losing my lunch, but was barely over 40 minutes and knew I'd regret stopping, and pushed on.

By posting this I can legitimately be compared to the following, which is appropriate as event sponsors for both events are essentially the same.
