The Camp Pendleton (World Famous) Muuuuuud Ruuuuuun started bright and early at 9:00. We arrived much brighter and earlier at 6:30 because we are abnormally bright. It didn't feel great after the SAIC zoo event the night before, but hey, snakes on a plane.


The course included slimy hills, walls and tires, a sizeable lake crossing, and knee-deep mud pits (some for running, some for crawling). I was fairly certain I'd see Martin Sheen eerily rising from one of the pits, but maybe it just happened on Saturday.


Most teams stayed together. Being jerks, KO and I set our own pace. We got to the finish at 1:01:45 (he beat me).

As a team we we finished in 1:11:38, 13th of 151 (0:57:18), overall 41st of 285 (0:51:15) .

I am convinced the interesting smell wafting from the mud pits was urine.

Holy crap! What's Connie's body fat percentage these days??? She's my new idol!

Texas is a real education - Garrison Keillor | Garrison Keillor

I flew down to Texas last week to get out of my tiny bubble on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and see that this is a big country that includes people who don't think as I do nor even wish to. And from Texas I took my family to California to be among people who think as I did when I was younger but with uninhibited extravagance. It was quite a trip. On Election Day, I expected Wonder Woman to win who fights for justice, peace, and equality, and she did not. It goes against what Miss ...
