Ran after work and enjoyed the cooler weather. Nice to see some blue skies. Happy there was no foot pain.

A couple of girls, I'm guessing high school age saw me about a mile into my jog and decided to drive next to me for about a quarter mile and ask me random questions:

-Where do you go to school?

I don't.

-Why are you running in the cold?

I enjoy it.

-Do you run lots?

Define lots.

-Do you have a girlfriend?

I'm 27.

They drove away at this point.

I think my inability to grow facial hair makes me look much younger than I am.

I love it! You were playing very coy and hard to get with them!

Glad you seem to be on the mend and running with no pain again!

So that 0.25 threshold was when you were showing off to the underage girls? You should be ashamed of yourself!

I'm a shameless flirt. It took these girls a full quarter mile to realize I wasn't worth their time. Most catch on quicker :)

Holy Cow!!! I am checking entries I may have missed in an attempt to identify what that trophy is you are holding and who that woman is...and then I read this entry. A quarter mile they were driving along side you!!! I find myself thinking about some stories Burt shared. And then I see this one. Must say that probably has not happened to many bloggers. You could have had a bit more fun with that...and now I am thinking about you and Burt...and am imagining how your story would have turned out if you had a Burt moment...Burt you know what I am talking about ... right?

Quiet PRE. Adam still thinks I'm a respectable member of society.
