Running For Pleasure ..... NOT!!!

There's a lot of truth in this statement. I refuse to run anywhere any more. Not for money. Not even for love. And I avoid situations where I might have to run for my life. Like pissing off a bear. I just have no interest in running ..... Even though I still think that given a little time to limber up, I could still sprint the hundred yard dash in darn close to record time.

So don't bother to ask me to take part in the Senior division of your 5K charity marathon event. Unless I can stroll a few hundred yards of it and call it good

As a kid I recall Bob Hayes running the hundred in 9.1 seconds. There was also Jim Ryan's sub-four minute mile. Those were looked at as the limit back then. Records that would be tough to break. I have no idea these days if they still stand.
