I might could still run 6 or so miles depending on the Tuesday Night Running Club, but I have nothing about which to write, so I'll weigh in tomorrow.

Quotable
"You know what I call the guy who's DFL? A finisher!" Overhead at the back of the pack at Western States in 2009. It meant a lot more to me at the end than it did at mile 3 when I heard it.
"Hey were you DFL at Western States? So was I!" Some dude named Steve that I met at Umstead. He was DFL in 2006, I was DFL in 09.
Becky talking about the need for training partners, "It takes a village to run a 100-miler." June's reply, "Yeah, a village Idiot!" Priceless June Bug, priceless!
“We are not in a hurry anymore.” Roger to his crew as he entered Camp 10 Bear for the first time in the Vermont 100, Ouch! Darn evil doctors!
"Road Marathons Suck!" Words of wisdom from Professor ACG. Listen to him, he knows of what he speaks!
"It's slippery." From the dude lying on his back at the Alafia Trail 1/2, regarding the trail condition of the muddy downhill I was about to run. Thanks, now could you roll to the side.
"There is no Try, either Do or Do Not Do." Yoda. Ok, little man, that sounds like you have a Do-Do philosophy. There is no try may work for keeping the Dark Force at bay and saving an empire, but oh-great-wrinkled-one, we're talking about running 100 Miles. Now drop and give me 20, Mr. Jed-Eye!
To me, From an aid station volunteer at Ancient Oaks 100-mile trail run, "The difference is, You could do what I'm doing, I could never do what you are doing!"

An O-F-F day? I'm confused. What does that mean? No writing, no blogging, no...I can't even say it...running. Is it possible to train for a 100 miler AND take days O-F-F? It's too late to save me, but tell all the kids out there to "be a wuss and take a few days off". If possible, we have to help them!
European distance runners get two months off.
Man, I was gonna run, but it's a toad-strangler out there, the gullies done washed! But, I'm taking the day O-F-F bloggin' thaz all.
I hope you got a written excuse from your meteorologist.
This is my ninth sick day this semester. It's getting pretty tough coming up with new illnesses. If I go for ten, I'm probably gonna have to barf up a lung. So I better make this one count.
Oh how I love Ferris...he's not only the Sausage King of Chicago, but the one-liner king of the late 80's.
And you know it takes people like us to tolerate a person like yourself...
May I suggest Skivving Snackboxes from the Weasleys?
