Bull Run: A 50 Mile Sonnet

By On April 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment

I was running down the trail and straining
From my nose came rockets that were snotty
Runners had for many months been training
Having won a spot in bull run’s lott’ry

Up above the skies had full cloud cover
Dawn had brought a cool and pleasant race day
On the ground, though, we would soon discover
Sloppy, slip’ry mud on top of hard clay

Red WUS shirts defined the competition
Boldly stating our affiliation
Even as I dropped in my position
Suffering performance degredation

This one took a lot of effort, therefore
Surely next time I will know to train more
