Run Fatboy Run!

Gordon: Go on then, run!
Dennis: Isn’t there some kind of like… special technique?
Gordon: Well… yeah… you put one leg in front of the other over and over again really really fast.

I saw Run Fatboy Run last night and it was wonderful and hilarious. British romantic comedies are so delightful. It also probably helps that it was about running a marathon. When I left the theatre I wanted to go running so badly. Sadly, it was dark out and running at the gym would not have been the same. I’m not sure if I’ll end up running today or not. My knee is bothering me a bit and I don’t know if I want to aggravate it, but maybe going to the gym wouldn’t be so hard on it. Plus, I have a bunch of new music to listen to or podcast to entertain me. We shall see.Anyway. Go see Run Fatboy Run.

Also, slightly related to running (in that it’s a sport sense)… There are apparently colleges in New England which have started an intercollegiate Quidditch games. They have modified Quidditch from the magical world to a muggle version which is a mixture of rugby, dodgeball and soccer. Sign me up. This is one team sport I would want to play! Check it out.
