Clarification

As a friend said, "I don't understand what you're saying, but I like the pictures." This blog so far has been following the running exploits of two of my friends, not me at the moment, because I'm taking some time off to work two jobs. The three of us primarily run ultramarathon events, 50k or more (31 miles+). T. or now The Todder and L. now lowercase, are my two training partners. And my boss calls me Benelux. So there's us three. Now lowercase is the serious one. He's won a race and placed highly in others, including a 50 mile race and a 100k race. He's also going to race in the Superbowl of ultrarunning, the Western States 100 Mile Trail Run. Which he got into by virture of his victory in the highly contested Way Too Cool 50k back in March. This is a very big deal. A very big deal. The Todder is also serious, although less so, he and I spend a lot of time chit chatting while running. He is working towards his own goals and has enjoyed a number of races without me as I had a leg fracture last season, and now the two jobs. Hopefully, the next few posts will be clearer on the running part and will include some other characters. Until then...

Benelux (you know, BElgium, NEtherlands, and LUXemburg)

Why DOES your boss call you Benelux? Enquiring minds want to know....

Maybe it should be the name of your blog.

The Todder and lowercase and RSR makes everything much simpler to read!

Thanks for the clarification. Sincerely,
