LB and lc after 2008 Way Too Cool

LB (Craig) and lc (Lewis) after 2008 Way Too Cool

Dear lc,

That’s a nice race report. Cute. If you had listened to me, you wouldn’t have had to fly 1,000 miles so you could poop and puke and DNF at Leadville. You should have stayed home and showed your mental weakness here at the Where’s Waldo 100K brought to you by Sunsweet. You should have followed the code. “What’s the code?” you ask. The code says you must run the same four races every year: Truffle
Shuffle, Cool, Pear Blossom and a little ole contest called the Western States 100. What’s that? You didn’t get into Western States? You should have signed up for Javelina like I did. Six washing machine loops in the desert is way more interesting than a mountainous, 100-mile, out-and-back course in the Rockies. Have I mentioned how boring and uninspired that Leadville course is? Hope Pass, my ass. You see, lc, it’s simple. With my proven training plan you too can make the Western States 100 your single purpose for being. All training runs start from 225 E. 39th Ave., we run the SOFA and MLK Fat Ass in January, and on the day after Cool, we run from Michigan Bluff to the cemetary and back. But you didn’t do any of these things, lc. You didn’t even stay for all 12 days of training camp or make the Ice Cream Sandwich Run. I even heard you violated the most important rule there is: All long runs must start no earlier than noon, so as to assure you will accomplish nothing else that day. I heard you were out training in the morning, in the dark, which is something I just don’t understand. It’s like people who insist on calling it “Western.” How many times do I have to tell you people, it’s “States?” So why, lc, would you want to get up that early and run? I even heard you don’t take daily naps from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Don’t you know that’s prime time for muscle recovery. And don’t get me started on that whole procreation thing. When you looked into your wife’s eyes and said, “Honey, let’s start a family,” what you were really saying is, “Honey, let’s do something that will forever compromise my ability to train, and assure that I will never crack the top 50 at Western States.” C’mon, lc, vasectomy is the answer. It’s not too late to cut your losses — so to speak.

    JizzleWizzle,

    Don’t confuse the poor guy with things like Ghost Town (what the hell is that anyway?) and Rocky. He’s finally figured out what happened last year and is going to fix most of them, with the exception of shaving his legs because his wife won’t let him.

  2. Sorry to be a little slow to pick up on this one – and sorry again to take 30 minutes to figure out who is channeling who (or whom). I managed to get the third person thread, but this one is really tough. Did he really make LB that well? Maybe.

  3. OD,

    Yes, lc wrote this. Rumor has it that MonkeyBoy helped with some of the ideas, but it was written by lc. Sorry this was so difficult for you to understand. In the future we’ll try to write posts for a ninth grade education level.
