Hmmmm ... a bit more than I expected

Well, the last few weeks have been a bit interesting. The senior LA Roadrunners pace leader asked for people who had lost their jobs and taken up running or taken it up again ... like me.

So, I submitted my name and story. A few days ago I was contacted for an interview. Then, I was asked for some photos, hence what happened on my very fast run Tuesday.

The results:
http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-marathon-recession18-2010mar18,0,2772250.story

Even rather more odd is ....
a) there are two photos in the actual paper version
b) the story starts on page 1
c) the main photo on page 1 is .... me.

It's bloody odd seeing yourself in the newspaper machine window!
