Oh Everest, My Everest

“Meat is the best source of several nutrients. When our bodies are deficient in these, we become irritable and aggressive. This is a perfectly natural signal built into our genetic make-up over our evolution: our bodies are telling us to go out and kill something to eat. This is why strict vegetarians tend to be so vociferous. It is a trait that was recognized long ago; it was, after all, the vegetarian Cain who killed the carnivorous Abel, not the other way round.”



The Naive Vegetarian



Just sayin'. What? Oh, no... that really didn't have anything to do with the marathon or my training, did it? I'll try harder next time!
