Jason and I met two years ago training for and running our first marathon for the Aids Programs of Los Angeles. We were in the same pace group and eventually became co-pace group leaders (the people in charge). When long runs would get tough I used to make Jason talk about sex. He had a hard time with the training, but we finished in front of the rest of the people in our group on race day and we have been friends ever since. I occasionally try to persuade him to run another marathon with me.
