I'm officially nuts.
There is a half-marathon here early in April called the April Fools Run. I did it in 2010 just to see if I could do it. Ran it again in 2011, and it didn't almost kill me like my first one did. Fine.
I'm considering doing it a third time. Why? I have no reason to do it, and plenty not to.
If it beats me up too badly, I might miss a martial arts class or two. If you've been following this blog you'll know that I do NOT want to do that.
I should just choose to not run. Why do I feel drawn to running again?
A smart me wouldn't run.
There is also a chance that the run will fall on the weekend when Sakurai Sensei next visits Canada. If that happens, I would blow off the run and go to the Karate seminar.
A smart me wouldn't sign up to do the run.
Pity I'm not always smart.
I just hope I will be.
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
