flat feet
so i just found out my first pair of shoes were corrective podiatristy forrest-gump type shoes.
HA!!!! see??!
i knew my running issues weren't my fault. i have a foot defect!!! (why am i excited about this?)
i should get a head start and special treatment at races, marathons and all athletic type events... ever!
huh.. obviously i'm going to need to look into this.
Boston might not be outta reach afterall!!!

The captain of my tri team started doing triathlon's because his father told him flat-footed people can't run. The dude's an elite triathlete now because he's so good at running! :)

Based on that information, I think they should go back and re-calculate your times on ALL your past races and give you credit where credit is due....
