What's the weirdest thing...

Forgot to add this to the list of FAQs.

• So, the question would be "What's the weirdest thing that's happened since training for the race?"

• Without a doubt, that would be a thought I had during one of the long runs about a month ago.  It was a cold morning, and I was wearing a stocking cap that covers my face.  About half way through the run, I was tired but sort of cozy running along in my cap.  The tired feeling turned to a sleepy, relaxed feeling.  I begin to wonder if I could sleep while running, like a horse can sleep standing up.  I tried closing my eyes for a spell to test the theory, but once I pictured myself running out into traffic or into the ditch, I gave up on that idea.

• Another thing that comes to mind, although not really weird, was that on one long run I found an I-Phone in the dirt beside the road.  I picked it up, discovered it worked, and dropped it off at the house mid-run so Tina could try to track down the owner.  We discovered the owner was snoop dog somebody (no offense intended... his nick name included the word "dog"), who I met later at McDonald's to return it.  He was very appreciative, and told me I "Saved his life".  Finally, some redeeming value to this whole thing.
