i can't even get my wife to climb with me anymore....no one calls. everyone runs or avoids. it's a nice handwave, a weak smile, and scurry off the other way....
please don't make me beg brentucky for a catch....

maybe I should hook up with Piggy and Brent...
depends, are we talking overall elite male top 100? in that case, they are probably not a gumball. but any other dedmarcation (like age group winner,etc) is a stupid and self serving as having 3-4 divisions in a climbing comp....
when someone goes to get a round and brings me back Bud Light I usually give them the obligatory- "thanks, Alice" which usually supplies sufficient nose rubbage unless their name happens to be Alice
still, the "just runs" line is a lie. runners are like every other group, trying to win age groups, set PR's, beat their training partner, etc.....don't let em fool you. I have been running for 23 years..there is indeed a pecking order to running as well.
