...after Jerry claims that his life always seem to be able to even itself out, Elaine tests his theory by throwing $20 out the window.Today I walked my fastest mile ever, because I had a nice rabbit in front of me and I was damned and determined to overtake him. So we had a thang going for a while.
But.
I won.
Here are the numbers:
Mile 1: 14:58
Mile 2: 14:43
Mile 3: 13:44
(Yes those are minutes per MILE.) And that's my very very first sub-14-minute-walking mile!
As I smoked this guy, who was about five seconds behind me, and who had been glancing over his shoulder for the past two miles to watch as I stuck to him like glue, finally passing him in the last 1/2 mile, we both laughed, and I said, "Dang, you're fast!"
And he said: "So are you!"
(And Number One Daughter, now home from college, also out on the trail, said "Mom, remember when you could barely run that pace?" Yes, indeed I do!)
So, take that, roller-blading lady!
I'm fast!
At something!
Finally!
