... and it's not just because I adore the author and would like to [melon press] him into another dimension.

Very good read. And now I have a label for myself: stoic.

Very nice, and yes you got Stoicism right, Scout, but you probably knew that.

How to Run Like a Stoic

Nice! As one of the commentors at the end of the article said, I remember the term "Stotan" from my (fairly extensive at the time) reading of every running book I could find back in the early- to mid-80's. (Stotan being a contraction of the words "stoic" and "spartan".)
