Default Re: (OT) Some Things I Want To Bet On

Timex --

I ran XC in high school. Last year I started training for a sprint triathlon and before some personal-life stuff interfered with it was doing semiregular 3-mile training runs.

A couple weeks ago I had occasion to sprint roughly 80 meters a few times and was very tired afterward. A couple months ago I left my wallet at a coffeeshop and jogged/walked/ran three-fourths of a mile as a result and was very tired after that.

So, I'm out of shape. I go on a walk almost every day, though.

I think it'd be awesome to meet at a given half-marathon in six months and bet on who finishes ahead of the other. Loser pays winner's airfare/hotel up to $X.
