Clarks: Soon to Be on the Cover of Runner's World?

From Jason:
I'm thinking of starting a running program.
I need the exercise and, frankly, the weight loss and muscle toning.
I know, you all think I'm so skinny [at least, I hope that's what you think] but that's b/c you haven't seen me with my shirt off [lucky for both of us!].
So, I'm sitting here at the computer reading about running. I'm not running yet, mind you, but I am thinking about maybe running. Maybe even today.
There's gonna be a marathon here in HZ next month. That's what got me fired up about running. But the deadline for entry is at the end of this month, and the fee is pretty high, actually... and also, I've never in my life run even one mile without stopping.
Maybe I will buy some new running shoes. That seems to be important, according to all the websites I'm reading. Great sites, by the way. Physically fit, smiling, energetic people--all running along there, like it's so much fun! Looks like something I might enjoy.
Then again, I have the electric bike. And I just aired-up the tires yesterday.
Shame to waste that air.
Then again, I guess it will keep.
Maybe what I need is fresh air in my lungs. Gasping, panting, lapping it up. "Feel the burn. Be the road." Chariots of Fire. "Dum dum-dum da-dum dum..."
The weather is perfect for running. I can tell just by leaning back, away from the glowing monitor of the computer, and looking out the window--yep, perfect running weather, looks like.
So, here in minute, after I'm done typing, and maybe after I look at a couple more training regimens online, and do some side-by-side shoe comparisons, and maybe finish checking my e-mail... and then I need to hang out that laundry that just beeped... oh, cute! Moonbeam just jumped into my lap!... and I do need to finish my lesson plans for the week...
I don't know if I'm going to have time to go running today. Maybe tomorrow.
We'll just have to see what happens.
Wish me well.

[UPDATE: I did go running. And I enjoyed it.]
