Taking it to the Next Level

I have to confess, that on rare occasion, I have, purely for logistical reasons, blogged about running PRIOR to actually doing the running. Today while running (yes I did do the run prior to this typing) I envisioned taking this to the next level by quitting the running-part altogether and focusing all of my energy solely on the blogging-about-running-part.

I am not saying it would be easy. Occasionally, I would have to lament some stress fracture symptoms when my quasi-mileage got too high. I would need to commit to learning photoshop so that I could edit myself into a variety of running pictures. Finally, and quite logically, I would need to find some speedy dupe to enter races under my name in exchange for free race t-shirts (I would keep any race hardware that he may earn). Race performances wouldn't be tied to training, instead, I would vary them based on whether my "killer race" funny story was further along than my "there's always next time" entry.

Of course, somewhere along the line, I would actually blog about the trick in a way that made people think I was trying to be funny. "That Jack, such a kidder!"

Oh yes, I have it ALL figured out.
