The returning runner…

Act 34 – Random derangements while I battle the dulldrums…

 My note: Since mentioning my prostate surgery I’ve now had random men come up to me to tell me how many times they pee each night. So…I was thinking of a diary of my surgery and recovery process. But, I need a little more time to see how things play out. I can’t race or train hard yet so some random musings below…

Are orthopedic docs now seeing a rash of shoulder injuries which result from running with your arm extended while trying to take a selfie pic/video?

Are ER/Urgent care docs now seeing a rash of wipeout injuries which result from not paying attention while running with your arm extended and trying to take a selfie pic/video?

If you are a 65+ male runner, when do you look good running and who wants to see it?

Do people rent dogs to add to the cute factor in their running pics/videos? If so, see rental candidate in this blog’s pic…

If your dog eats a Nunns tablet they will foam at the mouth and look like they have rabies…

Do all runners think that people are dying to see their latest Xray/scan?

If you go to a party, how will you know if there is a runner in the room? Don’t worry, they will tell you…

Why does my dog choose the only time to run right beside me to be the narrowest part of the trail?

Why does my dog gleefully run with me most of the time but if my wife drops us off he desperately wants to get back in the air conditioned car?

How can a dog with 2% body fat dive in and out of a snow-melt stream every 30 yards on a run without getting cold?
