Posted: 01/20/05 - 15:02 Post subject: these are my confessions
so...I get a voicemail from my uncle....
"Hey! Cheryl! Its your uncle Jack! I just saw on the internet! 2:19! Wow, you're picking up speed! That's an excellent half marathon time for you, good for you! Just wanted to say congrats! Talk to you later!"
now I have to confess to him that my roommate is an excellent half marathoner, not me. I really hate to burst his bubble, although my roommate is flattered...

I just hope your uncle's last name isn't Hoff. Because that would be a real confession.....

We pulled that stunt in a h.s. study hall. The teacher passed around a sheet asking everyone to sign their names. Of course, we added Jack Hoff, Pete Moss, Chuck Roste, etc. She sat up there and started rattling names off but finally caught on at Chuck's name. She wasn't amused.... especially because someone would raise their hand despite the bogus name.

You wear your bib on your butt? Now that's a creative way for people to see your number....

I DID THE EXACT SAME THING TO A RUNNING BUDDY. Saw his name in a halfM results with a sub-1:30 and I emailed him off with a drippy kudo email and asked what his "secret training" secret was because the year before he was beyone the 2-hr mark. Yep, turned out he dished off his bib to someone else.
I'm sure I made him feel about < > tall.
Sorry, Cheryl... but you had to expect it, no?
