    I confess @km8907 has me curious about those darn Shamrock shakes. I may be a rebel and grab one on my way home from work.

    I ran for the first time in 20 years last month..... I confess that I found the 1st mile really difficult... but then after all my flabby bits synchronized their natural oscillations with one another..... I found it much easier.... (I think the pro's call that "a rhythm"?)

    I confess that I am absolutely, positively, without a doubt, never going to be a runner lol.... oi vay.

    Never say never ;)

    I run about as quick as most people walk. It's more of a really long stumble lol.

    I "ran" a 5k where I was passed by elderly speed walkers :grimace:

    The last one I did, my 8 y/o daughter and mother-in-law finished far enough ahead of me that they thought I got lost.

    Finishing is all that matters. I did a 5k with my mom. She gave up after 1/4 of the way. Then she tried to get me to quit so we could have the Chick Fil A that was being offered. I finished dead last, but I did it just under an hour.

    I confess I keep going to a Foam Glow 5k page and wanting sign up but chickening out. It's in August and I'm scared that's still not enough time.

    I said that too once...I still say that I'm not...but I sort of am...and I'm just in denial.

    I have never admitted to being a runner and still don't call myself a lifter, yet I do both most days of the week. I don't love the stigma that comes with either. I rather say I practice badassery

    I know right? The shirts and swag and medals and such that comes with being all hoity toity....which I now have a bunch of... haha

    Just trying to make myself better than now

    I have none of those things legitimately...but I do have several "medals" that I have fashioned for myself out of tinfoil and a white tshirt on which I wrote "You are a WINNER" with a sharpee.

    Damn...I should've done that...much easier and cheaper option for sure!

    I use the back of one of my medals as a mirror to put on makeup if I find myself in a situation where I should look a bit more alive. I don't think that was the intended use....

    I honestly don't know what the intended use is for...it's not like I have a trophy room or anything!

    Usually things like a Color Run are more for fun that time. I have done several of these with people who can't run a full 5K and we walk part of it and it is still a blast. I don't know how all of them work, but the fun of the Color Run is the party afterwards. I would imagine a Foam Glow is similar. I want to do something like that this year

    It's a night run and looks so much fun.

    Not one of us believes you.

    What?? I don't! I just keep a few things around for sentimental reasons... :innocent:

    Quite obviously it is because everyone deserves a participation trophy. Wouldn't want anyone to realize they didn't actually win

    And it gives them an excuse to charge some of the ridiculous fees that come with these events...like WHY am I paying to run???
