shut up, sit down, and read

sometimes, i run…

LINK: sometimes, i run…

Currently listening to: Sometimes – Britney Spears

I wanna believe in everything that you say
‘Cause it sounds so good
But if you really want me, move slow
There’s things about me, you just have to know

ian m dudley is sharing night photos as open prompts. I thought I would partake in this.

In high school, I played volleyball and ran track – the 100m, 200m, 400m, and 4×400 relay. I was not fast by any means and watching me run long distance was rather painful.

In 2028, the Olympics will be hosted in Los Angeles. I signed up for the presale ticket draw since I’m a local. I chose: athletics (track + field), artistic gymnastics, and wheelchair tennis. We are allowed to choose two sports from the Olympic and one sport from the Paralympic.

I’m hoping that the Olympics won’t be a hot mess by the time 2028 rolls around, but who really knows with this administration.

Anyway, what would you choose?

    Isn’t it the Winter?? Or is that this year? I’d choose gymnastics, swimming (even tho I can’t!) and maybe shotput?? As for the para, I would do wheelchair basketball.

    A good classic Britney song. I used to be a very fast runner but my ASD made me unable to handle doing it competitively so I never stuck with running.

    You couldn’t pay me to go to the Olympics.

    Can’t stand crowds.

    Of course, if you’re unlucky enough to live in a city hosting the Olympics, you’ll get the crowds whether you go to the events or not. Which sucks even more.

    But I’ll wish you good luck getting a ticket.

    Unless that luck comes out of your lottery luck. I want you to win that cause you said you’d share! 😉

    Your Olympic picks are solid. Track and gymnastics feel timeless, and wheelchair tennis is such a powerful choice.

    Also love how this jumps from night photos to high school to 2028 without forcing a neat arc. That’s exactly how memory works.

    I wonder how many competing Olympians we will throw to the ground, detain and send off to a third world country…..

      Well if they can even deplane first or they might get their visas rejected so only the U.S. athletes compete
