RE: Tortoises

My friend tekboy can continue calling me anything he wants.

I remember running my first NYC marathon back in the late 80's. I had trained for 8 months and was all ready for 'race' day. I made it all the way through the scenic sites of the metro area, turned into Central Park and had about 1/4 mile to go to the finish line. I thought I was in fine form and had stuck to my training pace pretty well (a little faster than a leisurely walk in the mall) for the entire duration. I guess I was about 26 at the time and as I neared the finish line disguised as one big salty, sweaty mess of a marathon virgin - Tony Randall cruised by me at such a clip I wondered where the hell he had been the previous 26 miles.

So when Tekboy calls me a tortoise, at least I can take comfort in knowing I'll cross that finish line - even if he and Randall pass me by. <ggg>
