A comeback?

So recently, I've been toying with the idea of doing cross country here next fall. It is terrifying and exciting simultaneously. I said after high school that I was completely retired from competitive running, hung up my spikes, proudly wore my Retired Superstar t-shirt.

yeah, you should run.....you'd have fun :*) definitely finally seeing the rewards of running, I've started going for longer distances these past few weeks....did a 10k day before yesterday, but have been averaging between five and five and a half miles....not bad for a former football lineman, eh? anyways, sounds like you're still having fun, how's the home crowd?

excellent work jared! isn't it addicting? the home crowd here is pretty sad...me and dan holding up the fort. i just did a fridays at four and josh came which was nice. the world of warcraft goes on without you. but just think of how productive you are now! as i write this i'm listening to prokofiev's piano concerto no. 3...i think i have to learn it!

1. i think you should do cross country. you could make some cool new friends, and get back to running for a purpose, since you do it anyways.
2. what degree ARE you pursuing?
3. ha, "never really happened in high school," by that do you mean the one year we played??
4. i can see you all intellectual and cultured at your symphony.
5. how are things with you know what?

1. you're right, i should run for a purpose
2. i'm getting a bachelors degree in music performance from whitman but will mostly likely go to business school after working for a few years. thats the plan.
3. haha...yeah. why do i feel like we played longer than we did? maybe cause that one season seemed like forever.
4. i love the symphony...except it made me a little sad that there were so many couples there, young and old.
5. yeah thats non existent really. we'll see.

1. lists are fun
2. i hate school
3. you probably feel liked you played longer than you did because we were effing playing since we were 8! oh and you had to be in the same room as sturtz for three months, that makes time go quite slow!
4. i went to the symphony alone, haha i didn't even have a friend there, but it was for a class so i was taking notes and didn't feel as sad, it still kinda blew.
5. ok WHAT!?!?! what is this secret happening?
