Early retirement?

A friend of mine was nice enough to inform me that he has declared that I will never run again.

"...you couldn't stay healthy running so you wouldn't ever run again, and that you were a biker now."


So I guess since I'll never run THIS FAST (10k and 5k) or THIS FAST (5k) again, I'll just have to call it quits for good. But maybe I'll start "Super Secret
Training".

He also mentioned that I will never run a sub 5:00 mile, or even sub 6:00 for that matter. Darn you! How am I supposed to let that challenge slide. Grrr!

Dude, those times are sick. Just sick. That's it, you're a Jedi too.

Go Lopers!

Once upon a time. But thanks.

But now that I have a Ysalamiri strapped to my back, my jedi powers are useless.

Umm ... I feel fairly confident I could go sub-6 right now for a mile. If I can, you can. You actually have talent. I merely have the ability to run a long time.

Sub-5? Give me a month or two.

I'd have to do some running to even think about it. Maybe this fall/winter on those days when biking is less practical.
