Who?
I couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for this.
Phoebe Wright:
* Runner
* Lives in Northwest
* Appreciates guys who can binge drink
I might be perfect for her. I'm seriously going to look into scoring a date with her.
lives in NW=tattooed lesbian?
Ms Wright I suggest you reevaluate your pay scale--- a blender is a tad on the he's a freekin' cheapskate side IMO
I question the judgement of any ginger athlete that decides to go to UT. Was she trying to color coordinate or something?
She's 5'7, probably wouldn't give you the time of day.
"Binge drinking" and "professional" doesn't really go together IMHO. I have known and trained with some very professional runners and they would have a beer here and there maybe a couple at a time, but never more than 2-3 at any given time, no matter what time of year it was. Hard liquor was out of the question.
I wonder how her coach/sponsors react when reading that.
It's a pretty funny blog and probably represents a lot of pro runners, but the it kinda makes her sound like she is content with the 15k she makes a year because although she trains hard, her life is otherwise sitting around watching tv and thinking of ways to be frugal.
I like the humor, but wouldn't be interested in a date if I read this about someone I was about to meet.
sounds like she blogged this just to see the responses she could get from the goobers on here like jamin. After all she has nothing else to do all day...

You sound like a boring nerd.

BINGE DRINKING AND PROFESSIONAL DESCRIBE ABOUT 90% of the Jobs out there.

Are you kidding? Many professionals I know and work with - including execs and high achievers - drink all the time. It's almost part of the job description.
What a sanctimonious, constipated twit you sound like. You need to get out more.
Lasse Viren enjoyed doing shots of vodka late at night even when he was training heavily, up to three times a day. No joke.
My senior year of HS almost all of my Saturday/Sunday morning runs or workouts were accomplished at least semi-hungover. Finished the outdoor track season top 5 in the state in my event. I also smoked a fair amount of marijuana.

I'm amazed by runners who can complete a workout hungover. Not that I've ever been hungover... I don't drink. It just seems miserable. I preferred to get my run out of the way, then rip a gravity bong with a couple teammates to relax after.
it isnt much fun - stick with pot
On this subject, Janet Bawcom is another likeable, entertaining American runner, and what's more, quite a good writer http://janetruns.com/. She and Phoebe should be front and center of their shoe companies' publicity strategies IMO, seems like they could interact with the Runner's World crowd and be charismatic.
sounds pretty sad in my humble opinion.
