For a while I couldn't think of anything that I could do for lent. The only thing that was relevant was being sober for 40 days, and, well...I just didn't want to do that. So, I have decided that I am going to meet 1 new person each day for 40 days and somehow make them smile. Hopefully this new person will one day be a great friend, and, just maybe, one day I can show them what it was like the first time I met him/her. With that in mind, here is who I met today:
Day 1:
Harris Ahamed
I've somewhat known Harris for about a month because he runs competitively just like I do. He runs, I'd estimate...about 50/60 miles per week, so he's not too shabby.
I honestly didn't know what to think of this guy. He always seemed nice online and, from a small amount of facebook stalking he seemed to be in shape. I ran with him yesterday and today I saw him in the cafeteria and shook his hand <official introduction :P. We talked about running, personal bests and of course, what type of pasta we were going to order. (Chicken Pesto obviously). Quickly I could tell that Harris was kind of a badass. To what extent, I cannot be sure, but I will say that he's a cool guy. I obviously can't fully get to know anyone in only one day, but I'm sure we'll run more and talk more about stuff outside of running. It was cool meeting him and all good jazz, and (get ready for romantic exit) I'm sure our paths will cross again in the distant land or Mordor.....
