Cut her a break, will ya?

Once you reach the halfway point in a 5k race, you’re pretty much a “lame duck” for the rest of the run. You’re not going to accomplish anything else, and you’re just going to be challenged on all sides by other runners with an agenda to wear you down and prevent you from pushing your double-stroller over the finish line.

Bailing out early was a decision that served the best interests of Alaskan voters and the American Red Cross. Also, as the Yakima Herald pointed out, the race was holding up her dinner plans.

Sarah says: Sweat is my sanity. Psyche!

Real Americans like to eat dinner, dammit! Leave Sarah alone!

(PS: When you wear panty hose under your running shorts, you sweat PLENTY, mister.)

Got a sneak peek at her next book, I see.

So, she knows that when she makes these public appearances that people, no matter how totally stupid they are, will actually show up. She knows that going in, right? So why does she cut and run from these events, book signings, 5Ks, etc if she doesn’t want to face the people who came to see her? If she doesn’t want to make it “all about her”, then why go in the first place?

Have you seen those people? Good Christ—they’re like a crowd of extras for George Romero’s Dawn of the Dumb. ;->

Like Rush Limbaugh, Sarah honestly can’t stomach the dollar-store divas and truck-stop Romeos who’ve made her a millionaire.

In here heart of hearts, she knows that there, but for the Grace of Karl Rove and Bill Kristol, goes Sarah Palin.

I guess she really isn’t “one of them”.

I think we might be missing a large point in this.  40 minutes is a long fucking time to take on a 5k run.  I would either assume she finished before people started gathering, or she is a damn liar and never actually runs.

Yeah you would be the prize winner…

5k is like 3.2 miles, in college we had to run it for basketball on a hilly-ass course.  Top shape athletes can knock it out in 17-18 minutes.  Part-time runners in about 24-26.  Even if you went at a bullshit trot, 30 minutes would be commendable.  40 minutes, well let’s take any of the “Biggest Losers” on Day One of the show and follow them with a Desert Eagle and promise of all you can eat buffet at Golden Corral and they’d probably run it in 40 minutes…after about 23 stops and 17 weeping breakdowns.

She’s basically a lyin ass mom that doesn’t do shit but lay around the house in her PJ’s and mails it in even to her kids…hell they fix their own meals.
