of humor. Jim Johnson offered to republish a few of his articles from his blog, "I must Run Everywhere."

T-shirt   super store

Posted on   February 21, 2014

If you enter races regularly, you probably have a pile of t-shirts. I did an inventory count today, and I have 31 shirts.

Whenever I bring out my valuable collection, I have my attack cat, Gloopy, on guard.

Pictured below is my favorite one right now. I really like long sleeve tees. I’m also hoping to break into the field of male modeling. Beside a nice-looking shirt, hopefully you’ll find my pose professional and fashion mag-worthy.

I have a hard time getting rid of my shirts, and with a size-able inventory, they last a long time. My oldest one, pictured below, dates from high school. I received it because I ran lots of miles the summer before my senior year.

I taught English in Japan in the late 80’s and early ’90’s and have one surviving shirt, shown below. I was told only executives and the very rich had checking accounts. To enter a race you had to buy a money order-like thing at the post office that took a long time to process

After graduating from Washington State University, I got a job offer in southern California and did a bunch of road races. The below shirt is the only one left from that era. Many years later my daughter found it and wore it frequently when she was in high school. 

It’s a treat to get a sweatshirt for finishing a race, and I really got my money’s worth with the below one. I’ve worn it a lot, and it’s still in pretty good shape.

I’m hoping the misprint on the below shirt will make it a valuable collector’s item. They kept the same design from the previous year’s race, but failed to attach the correct suffix to the 23.

Because I have so many, I take the no-shirt option when I sign up for races, On rare occasions the shirts are so nicely designed, I can’t pass them up. Therefore, my collection continues to grow.
