Doing Things Besides Circus Acts: Part One in a Lifetime Series

Things I am doing besides free circus acts and rants: 1. Other things. 2. Helping her run a 3:45 for free. That's right, no 'coaching fee' for this garbage. No skimming; no alterior motive to fund other things and buy cool shit that I don't need. I'm helping her out because that's what runners do. Runners don't skim. We don't pass collection plates around in our holy church. We help each other along like the olden days before the TM hordes arrived, back when the Penguin was a cute flightless bird down south not a money-grubbing Harvard MBA business case. By the way, I am winging this schedule so I don't want peanut gallery comments from the schedule-loving experts. I told her to climb the mountain her own way. I told her to mix and match and tear it apart as she sees fit. These are tools; this isn't the Gospel of Luke where every day needs to be hung upon and played backwards, forwards, sideways in thick tongues with New Zealand accents. 3. More other things.
