City Sports

Things that normally don't happen:

• Alan Webb, the most annoying runner in the world that went out for ice cream the night before running sub-4 minute miles in high school, found a new venue to showcase his hyperdrive speed: Manhattan's 5th Avenue. Webb, who looks like a 43 year old soccer coach, will join the ranks of other running legends that partook in this newly resurrected urban dash during its glory days (1981-88). Unsatisfied with only claiming the indoor record, Alan brought his game out west to the University of Oregon in 2001 and crushed the outdoor high school mile record by blazing a 3:53.43 mile. Currently, he's living in Reston, VA and making all my excuses for being out of shape look pitiful.
  
• Fillmore Street in San Francisco will play host to a big-air ski competition on August 27th hosted by Jonny Moseley. Event coordinators plan on bringing in a meager 12,000 cubic feet of snow to create an 800 ft. course on Fillmore St. between Broadway and Greene. Those with skilzzzz will rise 20 feet above street level while gliding over 60 feet lengthwise. Ty, is Tanner doing this? Do you read my blog? Why do you hate America?

Are you kidding me?! Maybe they'll bring the America's Cup to the Reflecting Pool.
