Running...sometimes you need a buddy...or 20

I never ever thought I would do this, but it is official as of this morning...


I am a member of the local running club.


Instead of desperately looking for a running partner I now have access to 20 some people who love running as much as a nerd loves for Star Wars (Personally I'm a Trekkie, but that is another story for another time). It's intimidating, most of the members are in their forties and fifties and run marathons like it's a cake walk. Talk about motivation!

There's actually a running version of this, with a runner in place of a stick figuresque man running from the dinosaur. Alas, I can't find it. If someone does let me know, please!
Personally, I think about zombies chasing me when I run.
