Notice all the green:
It's school colors. These kids came over from Memorial High School to cheer and hand out water.
"Run like you stole something."
"Run faster... I just farted."
ADDED: A few blocks up, there was a group of little girls who were offering the runners bacon.

I see men in shorts!
Men should wear shorts in a sport where the standard uniform is shorts, like running (or basketball or cycling (not golf)).
I'm having to walk hunch-backed because my lower back went out after shopping yesterday, I reached in to the hatchback, lifted the box of groceries and fell on my ass. [space][space] This isn't good...
Anyway looking at these healthy people is really pissing me off right now!
Bacon and farting. Thanks for mentioning.
They never, okay, rarely, look like they're having fun.
It's all pain and suffering and agony and "If I can just make it over that damned hill." Even when they finish they collapse.
The people watching are laughing and having a just a good ol' time...
.....because they're not running.
A long time ago, when I was still young, I got up one Saturday maorning, bent over to put a sock on, and went face first in the floor. It was what we called a "witch's shot" in the old country, and a very nasty surprise.
Went to the doctor on Monday morning and he checked me over and said, "Bend over and touch your toes." I looked at him, and he repeated, "Bend over and touch your toes!"
So I did, the back snapped back in again and was all right.
At least temporarily. Sometime later the disk ruptured, and after that it was no fun at all when my back seized up.
When we were in CO last weekend, we saw Pike's Peak marathoners.. we of course like the tourists we were went up by cog rail. We hadn't been on the summit for 10 mins, clouds rolled in and you could not see anything. I felt bad for the people who were going up in the next train as we were coming down. Around Denver is a funny place -- you could see for miles and miles and there was always a lighting in one corner or the other.

You gotta have balls to debate this.
By the way, the folks in the mini marathon look full size to me.
We were in Rome one time during a marathon or a ten k race. The guys were cutting across the course and cutting corners. No wonder they lose wars.
Ohio overflow.

God bless 'em.
"Men should wear shorts in a sport where the standard uniform is shorts, like running (or basketball or cycling (not golf))."
Standard uniform? For golf? In a hot climate like South Florida, it would be considered most unusual to play in long pants.
The exception? Club professionals, who are expected to play, teach and otherwise conduct in long pants. I've played many a round with club pros, and shorts are verboten. It's like attorneys wearing a jacket and tie in court.
The exception to this? A tour professional - someone who plays for a living - will often wear shorts if playing an informal round.

How can we stop pedophiles when the Little Girls have bacon?
I have no answers.
I am Laslo.
If I lived in the neighborhood and had my parking restricted I would throw rocks at them. Why can't these pretentious jerks hire hire a speedway and run their 10k their instead of disrupting and disturbing ordinary folks. I hate this when they do it in Miami and cause huge traffic jams. It ought to be legal to run these pretentious jerks over as a public service.
"Run like you have 'The Runs'"
"Run like a Frenchmen on a train w/ a terrorist." America and UK bailing out their cowardly asses once again.
Blood Runners in white?
I thought for a seconds it was another Ashley Madison post, but just good ole Madison. Thank the goddess.
Bacon - THE gateway drug.
Reminds me when the Madison Marathon ended at Bratfest, so all the runners could finish a marathon and then eat a brat (barf)

"Michael K said...

So you and presumably others saw that? No officials observing? Just folks ignoring it? Pathetic. Did they hand out participation trophies too?
If I were running, those signs would really annoy me.
"Run like you're trying to escape bad signage."
