What's the deal with the otter

I admit it's strange to connect a running blog with a random marine mammal-- the otter. But I love otters!

I feel a connection to otters because they simultaneously seem so focused and relaxed, so odd and cute with slicked back fur. Otters work hard diving for food and resourcefully manage to crack open shellfish. Otters also know how to chill like villians by floating in the ocean...I confess that floating around is an absolute favorite of mine :)

So, otters don't run marathons and aren't really built for speed. And that's okay. I'm definitely not a cheetah or a deer or an antelope. I'm much more of an otter who just **happens** to run.
