Let my mouth do the talking

Well a lot has happened since I bloggeded( don't know the verb). I have gone to Cali, Lake Powell, and New York. Yes I am a lucky boy and I have to thank my mother for giving birth to me so I was able to experience such things. Also one other bit of horrible news.
Marathon.
Yes I am running one. I ran around Central Park in New York and I started talking marathon and the next thing I knew I was signed up for the Park City Marathon on August 21st.
I have a confession to make. Remember the picture I put on a few blogs back where my shirt was off and my body was fantastically fantastic. Well it wasn't actually me. In fact, running has made my body do the opposite.

If it's not my knee's flaring up, its my achilles, or my thighs, or my back. I know, I'm a wuss. But I signed up with only 2 1/2 months till the marathon and I'm having to push my body through a lot.
Let's get one thing straight. I don't like running. I'm not a runner, and yes it is ruining my summer, but oh well, I'm signed up and am gonna run even if my body starts to look even more like Mr. Burns.
Since I'm new to running I thought it was a social type of activity. Unfortunately I was quick to find out that people don't like socializing while there running. I have been having a hard time making new friends out on the track. They don't seem to want to talk to me or even get to know me while we are both huffing and puffing.
Anyway, my friends think i'm crazy. My wife hates that I'm always tired and cranky, and I don't blame them. It will all be over soon and I will go back to being the Zach you all recognize.
Come run with me and I will be your best friend.
