1st Annual Stupid Run

Friday night when I checked my email after my run, I had an email that had a subject "Stupid Run" it read...

We would like to invite you to the first annual Stupid Run tomorrow starting at 4pm at the Wickenden Pub.

The "run" will consist of beginning with a beer at the Wick, running to Fat Belly's for beer #2, continuing on to Felini's for a slice of pizza, heading to the Wild Colonial for yet another beer, and finally "running" back to the Wick to finish and have a celebratory beer there if we choose to do so. The entire course is 3.2 miles. If a few people are planning on joining, I will bring party pizza to the Wick for after the run.
Let us know if you plan on joining so we don't leave without you.
Issy & Chris


My first thought was "That sounds like fun"...but I also thought, I have 26 miles to run on Sunday morning, I don't know if drinking 4 beers during an afternoon run would be a good idea.  

So I thought about it for about 20 minutes and decided it was a great idea.

We had 6 people show up for the fun, Chris, Issy, Mark, Ken, Jackie and myself...and it was good times.  Here is the breakdown of my consumption.

Wickenden Pub: 20oz Black Velvet (Guinness and Woodchuck Cider)
Fat Belly's: 20oz Guinness
Fellini Pizza: Small Coke, (1) Slice BBQ Chicken Pizza, (1) Chocolate covered cannoli
The Wild Colonial Tavern: 16oz Young's Double Chocolate Stout
Wickenden Pub: 12oz La Fin Du Monde, (5) small pieces of party pizza

Will there be a 2nd Annual Stupid Run?  Only time will tell!!
