    Doug Flutie to run the Boston Marathon




    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    Dougie is already over 11mins per mile...

      Slow. Almost exactly twice my wife's marathon time. He lives in Melbourne Beach, FL? Douche.

        His time was 5:23:54. Not a fast time, but pretty good for a 50-year old guy who didn't train for it and just ran on a whim.

          I thought you had to run a 3:30 in the last twelve months to qualify
          Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

            Considering you can almost walk that fast, yeah, sure.
