9.34 miles this morning.  It was beautiful out.  But, I do have one question:  Can someone explain why some older men (maybe in their 50's) where kacky shorts, polo shirt, belt, watch, cell phone, and baseball cap while running?  It doesn't look comfy to me.

Wow, where they on a pre-golf warmup run? :) Nice mileage there!

Perhaps, but I don' tknow where the golf course is. hmm... this isn't the first time I've seen this either. It's just too weird for me.

How bizarre. I have never seen men in their 50's running in that kind of getup. Well, I never really see anyone out jogging in that kind of clothing!

Camille, is this on planet Earth? Or the beginning of a parade? Circus in town? Weird even in Mexico.!!

Funny, but old men are odd! GREAT MILES TODAY!!!!

April - I see it all the time. I also see men (of about this same age group) wearing kacki PANTS running. They aren't really wearing running shoes either. I swear, it looks like they could be going to work in that get up.

Eric - yep... planet Earth, though I *am* in Arizona... there are some crazies here.

Kelli - Thanks!

Maybe they weren't planning on running. Maybe their wives found out they were having affairs.

From montelepsy on Fri, Feb 06, 2009 at 08:10:09

Nice long run too!

Mike - Way to think possitively. LOL
