Bailed on my swim today...got a whopping 800 meters in...whoo hoo.
Was just not into it. Neither was anyone in my lane which did not help. The two guys I was swimming with bailed as well. We stood at the end and chatted for several minutes. There was an attack on a runner down by the river on Monday evening. I was not aware of the story as I don't read or watch the news. But apparently around 5:00pm on Monday (it was light out, a beautiful day, there were many, many people on the paths that day...) a runner dude was attacked by a machete!!
What the F*!!!!
This? Does not happen in Toon Town. I am sure it might happen in certain areas of town, but not in daylight, at around supper time with the after work crowd going for their jog around the river.
Or maybe I am naive.
It was a gang initiation thing. We have gangs? Okay, I knew that, but really...I run that path every single day of my life...by myself...with my iPod on...in my own world...one of the guys this morning told me, he carries bear spray with him...I am getting myself some before the weekend.

Yep gotta love that gang shit going on in this town and i like how the media never mentions it is gang related because then it will just magically go away....some innocent person is going to get killed before it is taken seriously..and i will go out on the limb and suggest the gang was non-caucasion as well!
I relish the day that i bail on a swim just 800m in!!!!!!
OMG Kelly -- Maybe there was a reason why you bailed on the run yesterday -- it could have been you! It's funny how sometimes you just can't get into the workout, eh? And 800m is better than nothing kiddo!
You still rock, and I just about spurted out my water when I read your "Beeotch" comment -- you are so awesome! Hahahahahaha!
You guys be careful running!!!!!
a machette...wtf?? nice....
WTF? That is horrible about the runner being attacked.
Funny you bailed on the swim after 800m, you rebel! ;-)
