Well…haven’t done a trail update in quite a while so I thought today would be as good as any….did see something kind of weird out there today that made me shake my head…who uses dental floss when they are out on the trail? Saw one of those floss picks in the middle of nowhere and I tried to figure out if I would ever carry one of those when I was out getting the miles in…who would carry and use one when they were walking, running, or biking? Oh, well…I think it is funny that there is the cross section of people out there every day that fall into distinct categories….you have the nuts like me that are working their butts off….then you have the casual exercisers that appear to have just started to get into shape…and you can tell those people on their new bikes…and does anyone look good in spandex? Most of the newbies on bikes have been sold that type of stuff that only looks good on Lance Armstrong…so, people, unless you are 6 feet tall and weigh about 150 pounds…it’s not so good a look on you.

There was one other thing that struck me as really odd out there today…a woman running with her dog who stopped to light up a cigarette when she was cooling down….I just don’t know what to say about that…okay, didn’t get to the other things but I might come back later for that….okay, one other thing right now….I realized the other day that two of my children now live in areas that have the possibilities of large scale natural disasters…my oldest boy just hunkered down through the hurricane in NYC and my daughter lives in view of a volcano out in Washington state….see it was an other thing….
