 Posted: 08/23/04 - 11:40 Post subject: Howdy! (With full disclosure)
Hey there RRers!
I've been checking out this site, getting some good tips and info for about a week now so I thought I should introduce myself.
I'm Bryan and I live in Philadelphia. I had started running about a year ago but quit after my wife (initial running inspiration) went down with an injury. I've been back on the road since May or so and doing pretty well for me--I'm looking to increase my distance over the fall, although I'm still not totally down with the idea of running in the winter cold. This from a guy who essentially stopped exercising for almost two decades after the state stopped forcing me to do so in a bi-weekly torture chamber it called 'Gym Class'.
Full disclosure--That abovementioned wife is none other than Gogirlgo. Not that I was trying to hide anything by not choosing a 'Go-related' moniker--I just wanted a cool user name and easily downloadable avatar. I mean, I can't believe no one had already taken RexRacer! Who posts on this board anyway?!!!!
That's about all. Thanks in advance for all the running advice I'll be scamming off of you in the next few months and good luck with the fall race schedule!

Nope. The CR site tried to claim my puppet was Kim Jong Il, but they were wrong on that one. Never had a puppet. I'd have to have some good material under my own tag before I start branching out. So you won't be seeing any puppets from me for a long time.
