Peanuts by Charles Schulz for October 04, 2024

I once learned on a march-thing (not a protest, actually an act of positive support) that it is very hard to sing while walking for miles. Which seems obvious now, but I was much younger then.

Most people probably just listen to music.

Woodstock looks unusually big in today’s strip.

I’ve never been a runner. Walking is my thing

What did Woodstock say?

I’d rather stay at home and jog my memory.

My brother and I used to carry on conversations when we ran together back in our younger years.

They look like they are more floating in air than jogging, because I may be wrong, but that the act of jogging means that one foot must be touching the ground while the opposite foot is in the air.

Here, both their feet are in the air and never once it touches the ground.

Speaking of jogging, let’s hope tomorrow that 1977 Peanuts strip related to National Jogging Day is rerun or not rerun.

I can carry out a conversation while jogging. A conversation can be 3 seconds long.

if you talk too loud, then EVERYONE in on the conversation ;+)

Mother’s Day run in CT. Being passed by two mothers, pushing running strollers, as they’re having a conversation. They were much younger!!!!

Back when I could job, I’d carry on conversations with myself.

They look more like they’re fluttering than jogging.

jogging has been replaced (at least by myself and I) with an electric bike. I can go for miles and not be out of breath anymore. It’s actually quite pleasant.

Ever wonder why Woodstock is jogging rather than, like, flying? Asking for a friend.

What Woodstock meant to say was " ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ ’."

The way I heard it is, you can converse but it will be difficult enough that you won’t really want to. If you can talk easily the whole way you’re not pushing yourself.

Woodstock must be a Kenyan bird

How does Snoopy get around when his feet don’t touch the ground? Woodstock could “fly”, but jogging wouldn’t work for him either if his feet don’t touch the ground.

Sorry Snoopy, your metabolism is never going to compete with a Birds! ;-)

I can walk and chew gum. Does that count?

You got served, Snoopy.

“Mentioned it?” I guess these comic animal characters communicate via telepathy.
