Harder to run than it is to buy a gun?

In January 2018 I’m running a marathon at an Air Force base in Warner Robins, Georgia.

The race organizers just sent me the following email:

 

I’m not sure, but I think there would be less checks for me to buy a gun than it will be for me to run this marathon.

That’s a crazy, crazy, seriously messed up thing to think about.

And for the record – background check away, Warners Air Force Base.  Most of my skeletons aren’t in the closet — they’re featured here on this blog already!
