M I'll happily autograph your magazine....laugh! but what I really want is a piece of Mr Lance at NYC! He got the cover and I want that...LAUGH! Anyway, If he was smart he'd hook on with the the g train and I'll drag his butt to a nice race! Couldn't agree more I've never cared nor will I ever care what my V02 or lactate( JEEZ i'm not breast feeding here) numbers are. Would it make me a better runner if I did? As for my running being mentioned in the pages of RW I'm truly honored. I never was great at this and never will be but one thing I was taught and hope to instill in others is, if you are dedicated, work hard and "keep it fun" you WILL get results.
: Thanks Pete! Yes, I am having fun with it, if
: its not fun, why do it? I couldn't possibly
: care less about what my lactate threshold
: or VO2 max are, would my runs be different
: if I did? I doubt it. Just have fun. That's
: what Gary says, and he must be on to
: something because why would Runners World
: interview him for a story on runners who
: have consistently run very well for many
: years?
:
: (I hope he'll autograph my copy on the
: magazine, I think I can get big bucks for it
: on eBay -- just as long as I make sure I
: don't bend the corners -- laugh!)
:
: PS - Not that anybody should be counting,
: but I think this is the third time Gary has
: been in RW...

: Yeah, I was informed late in the week that I
: would be running the half marathon... got up
: at 2:00am to leave by 3:00am... nice drive
: (fast) down, lots of deep thoughts about the
: cosmos ("do you think the guy who named
: 'uranus' was just trying be an asshole? no
: pun intended")... downed some pepto and
: tussin (yummy!)... saw Mike Brooks at the
: start who loved the skull and cross bones...
: was tickled pink to here the announcer
: welcome Gary... had a nice run myself, my
: first time covering the distance so I can't
: complain... fun meeting and chatting with
: new and old friends at the finish...
: excellent burdger at RiRa... nice drive home
: full of foolishness and fun!
