Reston Weirdos

As Chris notes in this week's Reston Runner Stats & Chats column, Sunday's 20-mile run "was a diverse group featuring the old, the young, the occasional, the constant, and the I-so-want-this-to-be-over." And of course, the very odd (after nearly three hours on the trail, I decided that long runs certainly bring out the most bizarre in people). Wouldn't be a running club without them (us?)!
Amusing commentary from our morning on the W&OD Trail included a conversation about joining the singles club at McLean Bible Church (no, thank you) and trying to explain to Ken that actually I didn't want to be set up with his unemployed son who smokes like a chimney. Finally, someone shouted "look, it’s Whit and Nitwit" during a brief period when Chris and I led the pack. Looking forward to an equally entertaining outing next weekend.

I think you're all nitwits if you run for three hours and talk about a singles cult.
