(Pictured above is Poley hours after this run...you can tell this run restored his focus)
The day after a "bobblehead Chris" night I vowed to continue the streak by running the Cherry Creek again with my good friend Erich Michael Poley. Hence the name The Denver Poley run.
I decided to start out nice and slow. Poley didn't. He ran fast out of the gate because he always wants me to realize he's better than me at everything. I ran with an iPod and he didn't so I couldn't really be a dick and jack up my music. Therefore I had to listen to myself breathe like a fat kid.
We both felt the effects of massive drinking the night before. I had mildly recovered with a nap and a couple Bloody Mary's but was pretty dehydrated. We stopped after about 15 minutes and decided to sprint some and jog more on the way back. We also pussed out and walked for a bit but we still negative split the run even though we ended it a little early.
All in all, it was nice to run in that altitude s and I really didn't feel the effects like I thought I would. It rained a bit and it was cooler than Phoenix so I was happy.

I am honored to be mentioned in the blog and be able to participate in this wonderful adventure you are taking part in. Hopefully one of your runs will be along Lakeshore Drive in the near future.
I must say, it was a great idea on your part to get us out there on a lil' run by the Crick. It definitely helped the depression levels brought on by binge drinking. Helped so much in fact that I wanted to binge drink again...
And I appreciate your modest useage of said Ipod.
I miss your musk.
somebody please cut my f-ing hair.
seriously, what am I thinking right now?
