Frazz by Jef Mallett for July 25, 2023

Frazz, get back to work!

Huh. Comments here seem to run in a very similar pattern: We say something that seems TO US to have some connection, but it’s really more about what we want to say.

See?

The first person over 70 to run a marathon in less than three hours.

Nice Canadian maple leaf?

I do some incredible running in cemeteries, too. Especially if it’s getting dark, and I hear strange noises.

The polite answer is “no.”

My favourite is Cliff Young, who won an ultramarathon at the age of 61, because nobody told him he could stop and sleep.

If you care to give a look, a great article about Ed Whitlock. Also a cemetery runner. I really enjoyed the article. https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a20850180/masters-marathon-legend-ed-whitlock-dies-at-86/?fbclid=IwAR3Rql1v1m2I3E9FneOt9iVo9olvkAjCNnedt96G73IbcA0kpuH6BcTsx-I

Here, here for Ed Whitlock!!

Did anyone else think that Ed was “running from death”?

Cemeteries are nice places to walk and run. There’s one in Detroit that still has the original topography of the city with streams and soft hills. How the land looked before it got flattened and drained.

One can tell when another person has reached the point of wanting a change in the conversation. Looks like Frazz is getting there.

First time I’ve ever seen Frazz’z teeth. Seems rather odd to have them so big. Eh what?
