What a jackass. It always amazes me when people flip you off when they’re in the wrong or even worse, react like this. He sounded like a real winner.

I think he called me a PUNK because he was a DRUNK.

Sounds to me like the guy knew that he was wrong, but didn’t like that you reminded him of this fact.

Glad you are okay!

OMG I get shivers just THINKING about that! I have had a very similar situation, where being in the right of way I’ve been sworn at and flipped off. One guy revved his engine like he was going to run over me. Very funny.

Anyhow, I saw your comment and yes…you do recover faster doing one a month. Today I feel back to normal and will probably run 7-8 tonight. But, you give up your pace. My pace has slowed quite a bit these last few marathons.

I haven’t done an ironman, but I did find that my half ironman felt easier than a full marathon. That was interesting.

I had the crazy thought while running Seattle…”You know, if I can do 12 in 12 months, I would totally be 1/3 ready for an ironman.”

Must have been the fumes from traffic.

I’ve had one or two of these events occur while I was riding a bike, and was very glad my tire pump was handy. And that the guy yelling at me was very fat and out of shape (what’s with that, anyway?). And that I’m obnoxious.

Anyway, glad we’re getting to read this through your blog and NOT a news feed.

Maybe it’s time to get a Taser?

Woa! Thank goodness you got bitten by that radioactive spider when you were a kid. Be careful out there - we don’t have any right to bear arms in this country, but even so, I’d be very wary of anyone coming on as aggressively as this here, as there’d be no telling how far they’d want to take things. The guy was in the wrong (did your witness get the license plate?), but there’s no legislating and no reasoning with f**kwits.
