If you’ve got nothing nice to say, go the fuck away. I’m instantly blocking shitheads who want to poke fun at this for their own amusement. You lead sad little lives.
I am probably the last of the group of people that were some of the early adopters of the internet. The internet didn’t fully become public and more accessible until 1994, I didn’t start using the internet until 1996. I am nearing 30 years old on the internet by next year. People from my group, we’ve seen it all by this point.
We’ve seen the internet at it’s infancy, as it developed, the explosion of it’s usage, the dot com bubble burst, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Flash’s death and the ongoing enshittification of the internet today as we know it.
I think I’m one of the only long distance runners that still smokes. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who runs as much as I do and smokes cigarettes every day.
Do you smoke while running?
Not generally, but I did a couple half marathons where I smoked one or two smokes during the run just because it was funny. Even came in top ten percent one run when I did that.
That is pretty funny.
I also used to bring a micci of rye with me on these runs. I generally run with my running backpack, and I’d pull out the rye and take a shot and pull out a smoke and light it, all as im running, and keep going. It always got at least one laugh and one “wtf” from the other runners.
How much do you smoke and how much do you run?
Eh I only smoke about 4-5 a day usually and at my heaviest running I did 5k plus for 8 months every day. Now I do about 15k a week.
