Running Sucks!

I hate running. I didn’t even PR at the Bolder Boulder today, but Candis totally rocked it. More tomorrow, but probably not until the afternoon as I’m going to watch my son’s Field Day in the morning. Hopefully he takes after Candis’ performance and not mine.

Hmmmn.... what does one say in a situation like this.

It's better to have run and lost, than never to have run at all?

It is a far, far better race you ran than you have ever run before?

Screw it, all the other guys were taking illegal performance-enhancing drugs?

I like Merry's last comment suggestion.

Way to go, Candis! And my condolences to you, Vanilla. I guess this really does mean you're half fast.

Jess said...

You can't PR every race; it's just not humanly possible. Did you at least get to Slip n Slide?

FLATOUT JIM said...

Ditto on the running sucks comment me son!

BUT a shitty run is still better than a good day at work.

Marcy said...

Bummer Vanilla :-( Do you need a list of excuses because I've got a bunch if you want any ;-)

Jocelyn said...

everyone has bad runs. Sucks that is was during a race, but to beat yourself up over it

That's too bad. Did you at least get your drink on to drown your sorrows?

Nitmos said...

You know, you could always lie and tell us you totally PR'ed because most people are too lazy even to stalk you and find out the truth.

It does suck when a bad run comes on race day...but we've all been there. Blame all the rain this weekend; maybe it had your joints out of whack or something.

If there's anything worse than when running sucks, it's when sucking runs.

Because somebody has to clean up after.

Was it the "Groin injury? The Grrrroooooiiinnn injury?"

Ace said...

/agreed. Running sucks. It is the universal truth of races that do not end in a PR. :)

Thank goodness for the long list of excuses. You'll need it with the long list of failures. Take two cases of beer and forget about it in the morning.
