The GF is doing a charity relay marathon run  this weekend.  One of the "legs" just dropped out so I have to fill in.  Each leg is  between  4 and 4.8 miles in length

Did I mention I find running BORING?  Last weekend I did a 5k and got third in my age bracket...28:32 for those wondering.  

Damn, I thought I was going to have a good weekend.

Keith_J: Come on, don't be a party pooper.  It's for a good cause, maybe you can get your lady friend to bake you some pie after you're finish.

Running isn't a sport-it's a way of staying out of jail!

Never found the point in running just to get back to the same place I started.  Have fun are you sure you didn't twist your ankle at the range?

She "bakes" me "pie" every day.  Sometimes twice a day.

No, I just have not run since the early 1990s.  Now had it been 5k on the bicycle, that would have been a 5:28 finishing time.

I think he meant your bracket time was pretty high.

Make her take a shower after the race (before the pie)

Running IS boring!!  Duh!!!  

Natural High my ASS!!  I have never seen a runner with a smile on their face.  They always look a few steps away from utter exhaustion and a painful death.  No thanks.  I will continue getting my cardio from pie.
