If You Didn't Know, Running Sucks.

Running sucks. I know some people enjoy it, and I am very happy for you guys, because you get to enjoy something that is very healthy and good for you. In my humble opinion however, running sucks. While I am running, all I can think about is how shitty I feel. Now admittedly, after I am done running I feel great, but while I am running I want to die. Yes that's right, I want to die. I want to keel over on the side of the road and never wake up. This photo is a good summary of how I feel while I'm running:



Poor little Benny (You'll be happy to know that Benny was taken in by a family and is now a happy and healthy dog). I feel exactly like Benny felt at the moment of this photograph every single second that I am running. 

 Somehow my dad convinced me to do the Warrior Dash 5k in September. What the hell was I thinking? Let me break down Warrior Dash for you, basically its a 5k (which I have never done in my life) on steroids. Imagine a horde of people (possibly drunk) running through the woods wearing viking helmets crawling through the mud under barbed wire, climbing cargo nets and jumping over flaming fire death pits. I really conceivably could die doing this, thanks dad. Admittedly, it could be the most fun I'll ever have running, but damn, its probably still going to suck.  Looks like I'm going to have to feel like Benny a lot more in the next few weeks to prepare for this disaster.
