Now they've gone and done it. "They" are
Brazen Head and they done gone too far to smash my worlds of beer appreciation and running together. Especially, on the weekend that I'm trying to run in the NYC Marathon on 11/5. Don't they know that I'll be running through Brooklyn only a few blocks away?
Ugh! Well, perhaps a post-marathon celebration will be in order over in Brooklyn. Or, some "carb loading" the night before! Or maybe a well-timed "bathroom break." ;-)
