The 10
9 Commandments of SUDA.
-
I am SUDA, who
brought thee out of the darkness of soccer and other wasteful pursuits
into the light of Running. Thou shalt not have any symbol besides
me, especially not the delta of the Haughty Nobleman, Eastern Mystic, and
Loud Jackass.
-
Thou shalt not
take the name of SUDA in vain, except in response to Endless Inquiries
into my nature, in which case Shut Up Dumb Ass will do just fine.
-
Thou shalt keep
holy the days of the IPSLs, and the WPIALs, the PIAAs, and the freshman
Dance, and thou shalt have a Damn Good Time in hotels.
-
Thou shalt honor
thy MAC and his acolyte, who helped raise me out of Who The Hell Knows
Where into thy collective consciousness.
-
Thou shalt not
kill, but it's OK to throw a few elbows.
-
Thou shalt not
commit adultery, because MAC will know all about it and thou shalt be doomed
to bear the Perpetual Clearing of the Throat as punishment.
-
Thou shalt
not steal.
-
Thou shalt not
bear false witness against thy fellow runner, but thou shalt bear false
witness for him, and for a Whole Lot of Other Stuff as well.
-
Thou shalt not
covet thy neighbor's possessions; thou shalt take them on first impulse.
-
Thou shalt not
covet Ugly Girls In Hotels, because Reciprocation is Never Guaranteed.
