Each week Photo Friday posts a photo assignment. Your mission is the creative interpretation of the week's theme. When you're done, post the picture you took to your website and submit your link to Photo Friday. Photo Friday is about challenging our participants to be original and creative within the constraints of the week's theme. It's not a competition. Anyone with a camera and a place on the Internet to post pictures can participate.
03.04.05 Challenge: Obsession
Running is my obsession, even when it's below freezing (like this morning).
For those wondering, the brownish-red stuff on my left shoe is dried blood and the gold thing on my right shoe is a dog tag with my info on it, in case I get hit by a car while out running. Who says running is healthy? And I love love love my Saucony 3D Grid Hurricanes!
Home, South Jersey, USA.








Many years ago, a dear friend of ours got struck by lightning -- yes, it's true! -- while out running. He was revived but woke up with amnesia, so he was"John Doe" at the hospital until, by chance, a doctor wandering by thought he recognized him. So, the dog tag is a good idea. May you never need it.

Someone finally asked!
I don't know if I can tell you without being too gross, but all I'll say is this - if you think one of your toenails might need clipping, you should clip it. Before you run, or it's like having a can opener in your shoe.
Told you it was gross.
