marbles
i was running the other day and looked up to the sky and was like, oh cool, pterodactyls. and kept running. then i remembered that pterodactyls don’t exist anymore and i got kinda sad. and then yesterday i was running down a hill when the sun was really low in the sky and i saw my 30’ shadow and was like, holy shit i just got really tall! finally! this is so fun!
thinking your daydreams are real is awesome; thinking that this might be an early sign that you’re probably going to lose your marbles is less than awesome.

Ummmm, you *are* hydrating enough on your runs, yes? I’ve seen weird things on my rides, but they’re nearly always real…like the wild turkeys running around Newton and Brookline. Yes, wild turkeys, big ones, in some of the more tony urban communities in the area. Deer running across the road at 7,000 feet I’m used to. Turkeys darting too and fro at sea level not so much.
Also, I do dig the long shadow effect. I love looking like a huge cycling monster. I just need to figure out how to capture that with my cell cam, and not crash.

keo often sees dinosaurs when he’s out too. and then he’ll say, oh but they don’t come around much because they’re extinct. i think you guys should hang out more, you would probably have lots to talk about. he also could probably teach you a thing or two about cars.
