  "OK here we go! I hope we don't see any villains! ...Oh no! A villain! " "Ahhhhh! I am a villain!
...Oh no, I am vanquished! " Ah, classic. Well, today was Sunday, and you know what that means... No church for atheists! You gotta love it. I woke up at 10:00 today, which was really early for me. I had 2 bowls of cereal and a stale pop-tart (disgusting).
Then I watched some of the Games of the 28th Olympiad. To save myself some time I'm just going to say it was one of those long, lazy, boring Sundays that everyone loves...or hates...(I can't remember which). Until 4:00. Thats when I went for my daily run. All I can say: "Ouch" . I left my house and ran onto Lyndhurst Road.
I ran all the way to the end and all the way back. The way up was slightly uphill the whole way, so it wasn't entirely easy. I reached the end (the one close to the railroad crossing), and turned around. Elapsed time: 22 minutes. But, the second I turned around, I was suddenly hit by a sudden heat wave. Now bear in mind it was only 74 degrees.
Still, I felt immediately hot and tired. This would be normal had I of felt it on the way up. But I didn't. To make things worse, the only shade on the 3 mile (I think) road was at the very ends of the road. Therefore, I had upwards of 20 minutes of running to look forward to in the hot sun. I made it to the bottom of Lyndhurst Road, facing a last 2 minute uphill to my house.
I eventually made it, almost dead, to my driveway. Elapsed time: 50 minutes. Yeah, I know I lost 6 minutes on the way back. I was just lucky to be alive. Last time I ever run down that way again. You're right, I'll probably be back there next weekend.
And that's where I stand (not dead in a heap of rotting flesh) right now. Though I feel somewhat stronger having completed that task. Well, tommorow starts practice again. I'm trying to get Clayton to get out here before the first day of school. Trying . I will leave you with these words of wisdom: "Never run down Lyndhurst Road.
Ever. " BRAD'S COLLEGE COUNTDOWN: 7 Days
