Truth in Advertising (toenail count: 4.5)
Here’s Tony, proving that if not all of America, at least
New Jersey runs on Dunkin’ Donuts
(not visible- the large coffee w/ milk & sugar )
I’ll do a “race recap” (including vomit stories!) about the New Jersey Marathon. Um, just as soon as I finish the “race recap” on the MdS.
In the interim, you’ll have [...]
nailing the playlist (toenail count: 8.5)
I’ve been begging every poor bastard I know with an email address to pass some suggestions on what I should listen to while running. I figure I’ve got about 40 or so hours of listening to fill.
