Also, I loved your court story! I have a similar story. When I was very young, I was driving home on a New Year's Day afternoon and the freeway I was on was deserted. With the open road ahead, I quickly got up to 88 mph. It didn't take long before I was pulled over. The cost of the ticket was astronomical and I was making barely above minimum wage. I went to court, not to fight the ticket, which I knew I deserved, but to ask for an extension and a payment plan on it. The judge said to me, "Are you sure you were going that fast? Is it possible you were going less than 80?" I answered that I think I was going that fast. He added with emphasis, "Because if you WERE going under 80, the cost would be a LOT less!" He look pointedly at me, and I finally got it! "YES!!! I really DON'T think I was going THAT fast!" That was my experience with the Mercy of the Court.

I have never run with a group, but I would make an exception for HM peeps! In the L.A. area here. Specifically the San Gabriel Valley.
