Running Mysteries...

There are many mysteries on the road.  We runners have seen and experienced many strange things.

For example, when I run in a race, I am sure that I look sort of like this:

And when I see the finish line, I am pretty sure that I close the race like Seabiscuit winning at Santa Anna.

Mysteriously, when I get the race photos back, I go from looking like a Cheetah and a Race Horse to, well, an ostrich or some other other awkward looking creature...

This is not Cheetah-esque.

And here I look more Tea Biscuit than Seabiscuit...

I cannot explain how this happens.  I can only say that in my head, I have the speed and agility of a cheetah and the strength, determination, and heart of Seabiscuit....even if I am just a slow, oddly dressed T-Biscuit.
