Great things about running #47
In the fall, you can stargaze. Orion is out again...and Venus was brilliant this morning. The river looked like a flowing sky, complete with space geese. AND you get to see brilliant sunrises at the end of it all.
Last year I entered the Chicago Marathon. The race started and immediately I was the last of the runners. It was embarrassing. The guy who was in front of me, second to last, was making fun of me. He said, "Hey buddy, how does it feel to be last?" I replied: "Do you want to know?" and I dropped out.

the line 'The river looked like a flowing sky' was as good as a photograph, Geo.

I'm a little disappointed that nobody inserted a Uranus joke here. :(
