Friends Don't Let Friends Run Marathons

In My Mind, I Am A Kenyan
 
My Sport Is Your Sport's "Punishment"
 
Fartlek: It's a running thing
 
In order to get to heaven, you have to raise a little hell. Train Harder
 
You can run faster but it is going to hurt
 
(front) Registering for a Marathon ... $75
(back) Finishing a Marathon ... PRICELESS 

In the race to be a champion, there is no finish line.
 
While you were sleeping I was producing lactic acid.
 
1.approach    2.pass     3.laugh     4.repeat
  
Why are all of you chasing me?
 
I belong to a drinking club with a running problem
 
If I'm not limping, it's because BOTH sides hurt.
  
A marathon is just a 10K race with a 20 mile warm up.
 
Any idiot can run, it takes a special kind of idiot to run a marathon.

HONK if you're about to run me over!
 
It's that damn .2 that really kicks your ass!
 
I'm thinking of putting the word "NADS" on the front of my shirt, so when spectators are cheering me on they get to yell "GO NADS!!!"

Even if you're falling on your face, you're still moving forward.
 
And my personal favorite....... Your pace? Or mine? (wink)
