Only in America can people charge other people to run. I suspect on the plains of Africa, people have done it for free for generations.
I am guessing that the city of Denver has their palm out when it comes to closing streets for an hour or two. (This makes it seem like the city of Denver is more corrupt than all of Africa, and I'll go with it this morning.)

If anyone wants to run laps around my neighborhood, the price is $5. All proceeds will go toward buying Twinkees.

Er, health food. Damn.

This inspired the hell out of me for just becoming active a little bit each day.

How large a book do you plan to do? Something like 100 pages, something smaller, something larger?
