Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I agree with this so hard. Sometimes I wonder if I didn't work in improv as long as I did just because it was the surest way to make sure I was never involved in audience participation.

I agree with this so hard.

Oh my god, I *loathe* that shit. I pay good money for my live entertainment, and for that money I intend to remain on MY SIDE OF THE FOURTH WALL.

I'm doing a 5k next month for the first time in yonks. Would probably be a good idea to start, I don't know, running.

I am considering Couch-to-5K, but before I begin I want to see how far/long I can run before I feel like I'm going to die.

I'm thinking about Couch-to-5K too, and I don't even own any sneakers. I hate running. I can walk for miles and miles happily - I walk 4 miles every Wednesday - but running makes me feel like my lungs are being scrubbed out with steel wool after about 5 minutes.

Maybe I should not do a Couch-to-5K.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

ita, I had to post that link on FB for all my Theater friends to cringe over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Unless you're really achievement-driven, I don't see making yourself run if you hate it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sometimes we are the same person.

This is not one of those times.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Couch-to-5K is what screwed up my feet to the point where I may no longer wear high heels. That said, I think the problem (Morton's Neuroma) had started before, but running put it critical.

Every now and then I still feel like I have a rock inside my shoe, except that the rock is inside my foot.

I've walked 5Ks before, and very much enjoyed it.

Sign up for this one with me! We can run/walk it together. You get a jacket and tons of chocolate!

I just need more exercise, and running is faster than walking and doesn't involve transportation to a swimming pool, and my kids' school does a 5K fundraiser in March, which would be good motivation.
