... 39;ve done since July is 3 miles, and that was on Tuesday of this week... The most noteable part of my race was my outfit. See, it was 32 degrees and snowy out there, but I wore a swimsuit and the Vibram FiveFinger shoes. Here's a picture incase you don't believe that:
It's hard to pick me out of the crowd. I brought it in in 39 minutes, which I was pretty happy about. That finished me ...
