A little love from my newspaper

Here is a link to an article that a local newspaper did on me.  It only cost a bribe of $6,000 and lunch for a year.  I would say that the article is mostly correct with a few minor details that don't affect the content of the article.  I actually used to make fun of the runners in high school, not college but I am not sure I made that clear to the author.  I was a pretty serious thrower by college.  Anyway, enjoy. http://www.theday.com/re.aspx?re=545b93c0-009d-4bb8-81c5-d20 9ada77df8

Hey Scott, Thanks for the link to your story. I'm not (yet?) a runner--my knees aren't up to it--but I can relate to the joy of moving again after beig so huge. And I remember making fun of runners in high school and later, preferring strength sports. I guess I often confused bulk with power! Even now I have to catch myself when I see fit, trim older guys my age and tell my wife that I hope I don't shrivel up like them. They look puny and feeble to me to me, even though I ought to know better and even though they can probably kick my old you-know-what. Guess the fat head lingers long after the bod has made big changes. Thanks for the interesting and inspiring story.
