![]() ![]() ![]() That was the only way I could explain the overly long shorts and ball cap - and that unpracticed gait - the first time I set eyes on him. I imagined he had stayed the night with his girlfriend - a married woman in her mid 40’s let’s just say - and had quickly darted out the backdoor for some unexplained reason and needed to return home quickly. Honestly, the first time I saw him I was convinced he was running away from someone. No mamby-pamby jogging, he is running, full tilt, balls of his feet bearing the brunt. High on his toes, he flies down the sidewalk, his heels never touching ground. Running boy… you can tell he is a real man. It takes a real woman to tame a man with ample body hair. A real man needs hair on his chest, a little on his back… and some on the shoulders to add to the overall manliness of the landscape. I’m not looking for Big Foot, but those Ambercrombie and Fitch teenagers models, with their smooth chests, do absolutely nothing for me. He is a little on the pale side, so even at 40 mph, I can see the thick hair covering his legs. Not to be outdone by his facial hair is his leg hair. I wish he would remove the ball cap, because I’m convinced it is holding back a full head of thick, curly hair that even now I can imagine running my hands through. And no little go-tee attached to it – he is all about the stache and lets it stand on its own. I haven’t seen one that bountiful since Magnum PI. His mustache - dark brown, thick, fully covering the lip-nose gap. ![]() But there are three things about him that really caught my eye then and continue now. The baseball cap - always red - is ever present. The shorts to the knees seem amazingly confining, but he never seems to mind. I guess about 9 months ago I spotted him - he was running, obviously… But he was so different from the others I had seen dolefully completing their morning routines. After Bathrobe Man, I wasn’t sure I was ever going to have a commute crush again (the word crush is so appropriate, right?!). But I had to tell you about this new man in my life. I know it’s been a while since I wrote anything. ![]()
