The marathon training is going well. Thanks for asking. Because of a golden birthday commitment Saturday night (Russian theme, Local Quipster pictured as some sort of coach, and yes, somewhere out there is pic of a bunch of us wearing fake mustaches), we did our long run on Saturday morning instead of Sunday morning. We headed with LQ to the lakes, where everybody and their mother (and this guy) always runs on the weekend. It was the longest trek so far — 15 miles — and around mile 10 we approached a man and two little girls who must have been about 3 or 4. Now: It was hot on Saturday. So we, along with LQ were kicking it bare-chested style for about the final 8 miles. As we approached the two youngsters, we noticed one of them starting to giggle uncontrollably. Then she said, slowly and pointing, “Those guys don’t have any shirts on!” It was awesome. Even better: We DIDN’T yell back, “In 15 years, you’re gonna love it!” Because that would have been a bad scene.

Take us into the night with some other funny things either said 1) by a child to you or 2) while your shirt was off.
