I went running tonight, and I want to die.
My friend Michael, who doesn’t blog anymore, and I have been talking about running together for a few weeks now and tonight we finally made it happen. We have about a three mile circle around our neighborhood and we did the whole thing. Now, he has been running for a few weeks. I have not. I went once last week, and then didn’t want to anymore forgot the rest of the week.
See the thing is I’m not a runner so I have to really hype myself up about it. I have to convince myself that I like it and really want to do it. I have to tell myself the next morning that the reason my leg won’t work is because I did something good. That’s hard for my brain to do.
I did however realize that if I have the right apparel for running it makes a world of difference. Tank-tops and running shorts. I’ve never owned either, but I see where it helps. This picture is of me just before my run.
I’m completely lying. This is one of the nastiest pictures I have ever seen and I apologize if it offends you. But honestly, it should offend you, I mean look at it. Could it get nastier? And really when it comes down to it, it’s amusing to me, so I get to have it on here. Come on. You know it’s funny.
Seriously though. Running is good for you or something. You should do it more. As long as Michael can put up with me whining like a baby the whole time, I’ll keep giving it a shot.
You run?














































Hi Brody,
I have been reading your blog for a while. Since InWorship told us to look at your self-control diet, which I loved by the way. Still working on that myself. I tried to run today. I really need to get off the computer and stretch a little so I can walk tomorrow. But I have to tell you that I am very, very glad that is not a picture of you. Because I wouldn’t be able to read your blog anymore.
Ooops, That self-control diet might not have been you. Don’t know how I found you!
I like your blog though.
I was suddenly really concerned I had written something about a self control diet and didn’t remember it.
Thanks for saying Hi Tawny.
Are you sure thats you Brody?! That looks just like my husband Michael…
that pic. is almost as scary as the one randy put up a few weeks ago! so glad it’s not you – or what you’re striving for – we’d have to start sending kristin sympathy comments.
good job running 3 miles on your first shot – i’ve always wanted to like running but could never figure out how to actually like it. people always talk about the “runner’s high – i’ve never met an endorphin in my life!:)
Running sucks! It does make me feel like I am dying.
By the way…your hot
I cannot really picture you running or really even moving fast at all but I am really hoping that when Randy moves out there he can convince you to wear a tank top because I think Kristin would die laughing. Keep up the running, it really is good for you,
That picture is the stuff nightmares are made out of.
I need therapy now.
Because that’s just the picture I wanted to see right before I go to bed…
yeah, i ran for fun in high school….
dork much?
what’s worse, i miss it and want to start again as soon as this baby is born…
careful brody, it’s a sickness

Wow, that picture is nasty!
I run. But I don’t have the “right running gear,” according to the definition you gave.
I also whine and complain to myself while I run.
Oh the picture could get worse. He could have those curly leg hairs everywhere. If you could see his face he would have the nasty 70′s porn star look…OH IT COULD BE WORSE!!! You thank your lucky stars it is this guy. Keep it up man. I just started back at it this week as well. Stay in it.
Wow, Brody. I’m in um… shock- laughable shock. Seriously funny picture.
Yes, I run, but often wonder why I submit myself to such torture.
I’ve been wanting to start running. It’s just a matter of fitting it into my schedule AND owning a pair of tennies. I don’t think my steel-toe boots nor my flip-flops would work very well.
Keep it up!
that picture is a train wreck. can’t stop scrolling back to look at it…
Brody. Come on man. You said that no one would ever see that picture.
I was reminded this weekend that I NEED to run – as I was at a waterpark with my nephews this weekend and got winded everytime we had to climb to the top of the waterslides…I really don’t like running…
That pic – Oh Brody, come on! LOL
I just threw up in my mouth a little, thanks for that.
My mind says that I need to run. My knees and the shin splints yell “STOP THAT NONSENSE!”
Dear, sweet Lord…
Zero cool points for freaking me out with the photo.
I used to run. Long ago. But a bad disc in my back keeps me from it now. Maybe someday I’ll work back up to it.
That is just disturbing!!!
Um….running is cool, that picture is not!
haha…wow!
I run 3 miles every other day. I’ve never been a runner until last summer when my friend decided to challenge me to a triathlon…
He and I ran almost 6 miles on Friday and then I play soccer on Sunday nights. The older I get, the harder it is to stay fit.
That picture is horrible.
I was thinking “please tell me that’s not you .. please”.
I like to run .. kind of … I like how you feel an hour later.
I like biking way better.
Ok, that picture really is disgusting!
I starting running a few years ago and really committed to training this last year. I enjoy it a lot more… still have bad days especially in the Nashville heat & humidity, but keep at it. It’s worth it.
By the way, it’s worth it to get good gear. Mabye it’s a girl thing, but I feel better when I’m wearing good running clothes.
Every man should have a pair of shorts like that in his wardrobe…
How does this picture even exist?
I’m a runner. I love it.
I run.
And from now on, I’ll be running from the memory of this picture.
