Dude, bust your ass hard this summer. Two a days when it's 90+ out will turn you from bitch to bull.

Get the sneakers with the wheels that pop out in them.

What the fuck?

SlyPokerDog was just being a dick for fun. He do that.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I was just being a dick for fun. I do that.

Hey, no personal insults!

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

I'm sorry I was trying to be a SlyPokerDog for fun. Wait, now I did insult myself. FUUUUUKKKKK

 

[KingSpeed]

Good luck bodyman, but even more good luck to kingspeed.

Eric - get off your ass and start training, things just got serious!

Thanks. I'll finish. Someone in my building did it last year and I told her it was something I always wanted to do but was afraid to. She encouraged me to do it. I'm always so amazed by all the runners walking around the city. I've always said the two things that scare me the most (because I'm drawn to them) are running a marathon and doing standup comedy). If I pull off the marathon, you'll see me in comedy clubs next year.

Okay, no problem.

Good luck, it's always a combination of daunting and exciting to tackle something that's out of your wheel house. Right now I'm just over halfway towards losing 130lbs, and I kind of felt the same way about attacking that goal as you do about the marathon, always wanted to, but seemed scary to try. But once you get neck deep in the project, it starts to get fun and becomes it's own form of inspiration. Keep us up to date on your progress, and post some pics building up to, and including the big race.

Standup is very hard. It's not something you can just try, you gotta commit and be okay with eating shit.

Hire a coach to train you.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

So, you're corrupt a smidge.

More than a smidge my friend, more than a smidge...

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

I get confused, is a smidge more than a wee bit or less?

That's why I'm scared of it. But I've hung out with the comedians at the Comedy Cellar here in NYC. I went every night for a couple months to study them over and over. One of them wants me to do it but like a marathon, it seems like the hardest thing in the world. But I'm 40, I'm gonna go after everything. I have a tattoo, an earring, gonna run a marathon and try comedy. Woohoo!

I would loooove him to coach me. I'd be excited for every session.

That's not the kind of excited that a personal trainer usually wants.

 

[KingSpeed]

So I ran a 4 mile race in Central Park this morning. Finished in 44:16. Next month, I run a 10K.

I love this post!

I'm also 40 and attacking a bunch of things for the first time. You only live once.

 

[KingSpeed]

Training is progressing. Today, I ran 9 miles in 1:46:07. 24 miles total this past week.

 

[KingSpeed]

That wager isnt fair, I talked to him on the phone 7 years ago while I was shit talking with PapaG. I posted my phone number and Eric called me. I told him PapaG was a f#@..hadn't really thought the slur through at the time. Doubt if Eric likes me much. He would probably want me to lose.

Even still, I will bet 25 bucks....easy money.

Is this bet still on?

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Is this bet still on?

Yeah, you do know I bet Further right?

You're not training so you can get my 25 bucks are you?

 

[KingSpeed]

No I meant the bet between you two.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

No I meant the bet between you two.

You going to run in a Lillard jersey?

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

You going to run in a Lillard jersey?

Drunk?

I sure hope Kingspeed didn't make a deal with Further to share that windfall. I would be madder than that guy betting Kramer on flight schedules.

 

[KingSpeed]

You going to run in a Lillard jersey?

Hmm interesting idea

 

[Further]

I'm still in. The bet is on!

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Collusion

 

[KingSpeed]

From my 18 mile tune-up run this past Sunday.... I got 6 weeks to figure out how to tack on 8.2 miles!
