From Wikipedia - Bigfoot, also known as Sasquatch, is a figure in North American folklore said to inhabit remote forests. Bigfoot may be found around the world under different regional names, such as the Yeti of Tibet and Nepal and the Yowie of Australia. Bigfoot is one of the more famous examples of cryptozoology, a subject that the scientific community tend to dismiss as pseudoscience because of unreliable eyewitness accounts, lack of scientific and physical evidence, and over-reliance on confirmation rather than refutation. Most experts on the matter consider the Bigfoot legend to be a combination of folklore and hoaxes.A couple years ago one of the TNT runners gave me a nick name. He called me "Bigfoot". He called me this because no one in the group had actually seen me run. There were rumors and stories of past races but there was no actual proof. As a TNT coach with a small group doing higher mileage you don't have the luxury to run with the group. You have to be ready with the sag wagon at any moment.
To keep the dreaded Battling Bloggers of the Texas Republic on their training toes I will try to report Bigfoot sightings as they happen like the one yesterday at Knox Jr HS in The Woodlands. It was reported that Bigfoot clicked off four 200's in :54, :50, :50, & :50 for an average of :51. A Battling Blogger did four 200's last week in :52, :50, :52, & :54 for an average of :52. I won't mention that the heat index was into the triple digits yesterday.

Did you borrow Kim's slow bike?
Must get faster...
Besides ... who believes Wikipedia?
so you are saying Bigfoot might be true....or I might actually run
LOL!
You actually run? Poor quality so I am not sure it is you? : -) I miss you guys in Texas, but not running in that heat!!
I thought big foots (or is that Big Feet in plural) only lived in cold climates?!?! What's it doing in triple digit heat index? Can it survuve with all that fur or does it heat stroke itself and pass out?
