He must have been only four years old or so, and he had a truly puzzled look on his face. He asked me, “whatchoo running for?” He said this in all seriousness. His question took me off-guard, as I was expecting more of a comment or jeer instead of pure curiosity.

I wanted to give him an answer as I passed, so I quickly said “to stay in shape!” He replied, “What???” and I had to look over my shoulder behind me and yell my answer this time, “TO STAY IN SHAPE!”

He looked confused as I kept running. I wonder what he was thinking and if it meant anything to him.

And then, in true slackass blogger fashion, I made no attempt to post again. I thought I’d come up with a clever and beautifully original design, but I’m not that guy.Where’s your post, Rob?
