Minneapolis Running track?

Dan · 2004-04-16T23:05:30+00:00

Hi, is there a decent outdoor running track in Minneapolis -- high school, community college, park district, etc -- that's open to the public (and preferably not too crowded on weekday mornings.) The closer to Uptown, the better. Thanks. Dan

Wale, it be true, I jus' loves it when all thems big, sweaty
mens comes runnin' by. All a-huffin' and a-puffin' an' such.
But, you know, joking about off-topic drivel isn't much
better than the off-topic drivel itself, so if anybody has
any advice here, I'd appreciate. it..

Somehow I get the idea that this group particularly attracts
the lycra guys who spend more money on their "gear" than
they spend energy on running. The guys who run three abreast
chatting with their lycra buddies about their SUVs and stock
options, taking up the whole path, obliviously making
everybody else go around them. Choad warriors, in other
words. But hey, thanks a bunch for all the help.

First of all you're WRONG!
Secondly, this is usenet and to participate you need a pair
of balls. So grow some!

Yeah, posting insults from the comfort of your living
room is pretty ballsy. And it's a great hobby, too. And
totally normal.
You're right about Usenet. Some of it has changed for the
better since the early to mid-90s, when it was pretty well
dominated by guys like you. I had hoped maybe something like
rec.running would be dominated by people who are not
emotionally stunted guys (pretty much all guys, right?
right) with lingering anger-management difficulties and
father issues. I did a quick search on you, Bob. Here and on
the Web. You have problems, and like a mystifyingly large
number of people, for some reason, you want to work them out
here rather than with a friend, a family member, or a
qualified therapist. Beating off online, constantly, isn't
going to help you. All I am is an adult who was trying to
get a little advice from some other adults. I guess I have
to look elsewhere. Thanks again, and good luck.
