Thoughts on walking around the Rose Bowl at dusk:
- Other walkers do not find it amusing when I twirl, twirl, twirl in response to the draft created by a group of 150 racing bicyclists. My walking partner, however . . . ;
- No matter how buff and athletic a mom gets, she is no match for a princess-outfitted, three-year-old daughter who yells “Freeze, Freeze, Freeze” and insists that mom stop in the middle of her run every few yards;
- Some women have HUGE calves; and
- People (and that’s not just girls!) run funnily. The arm flailing, foot kicking out, completely hunched over folks running by us prompted my walking partner to come up with an ad for our chiropractor. In her best “Vitameatavegamin” voice she pitched, “Do you run funny? Do people laugh when you walk by? Are you unpopular? If so, we can help. Call Drs. Christine and Adrian at 626-441-4888. They’ll fix you right up (really).”
