Paula Broadwell

In this last picture Gen. Petraeus is thinking: "I'm tappin' this hot shit!"  Paula Broadwell is a babe-o-licious military-minded babe who was an all-state basketball player for Century High School in Bismark, North Dakota. She is described on her high school's website as "graduating number one physically in her class" from West Point.  I bet.   What a timely find for the newly-minted R.A.G.s blog.  She's 40, but could pass for a woman in her 20's.  She obviously spends some good time in the gym, exhibiting sexy muscular arms and a toned physique.  I've seen a video of this chick firing a machine gun. Hot. 

She co-authored a biography of Gen. Petraeus entitled All In:  The Education of General David Petraeus.  Oh...it's just too easy.  A Denver affiliate of NBC got in trouble for running a picture of Broadwell standing in front of a poster of her book, only the title of the book had been altered by some jokester to read:  All Up In My Snatch.  Ha.  Thanks Google (and ultra-lazy journalism).  Some other titles that she had originally considered for her book were:  All In:  Balls Deep, All In and Out (and In and Out), All In:  I'm Horny---Come Tap This Shit, etc. 


People are having a field day with this, which is a shame because this was a consensual adult extramarital affair which has brought down an accomplished and respected general and an ambitious sexy lady.  All the same, I guess if you take the dive, you might end up going all the way to the bottom.  Paula did, after all, seemingly go a bit psycho by sending creepy emails to another decent-looking girlfriend of Patraeus, Jill Kelley, because she thought that he might be banging Kelley as well.  Oh, well...

Lauren Collins

First saw this chick in my Runner's World magazine and I was instantly reminded of why I love running so much.  Lovely Lauren was a star athlete at UC Irvine and is currently an athletic model for Athleta, a women's athletic clothing company that I think is owned by the Gap.  This chick is solid, yet slim, with long limbs and nice lines.  I can't find much on her these days, other than that she is an Olympic hopeful in the heptathalon, which is a 7-event athletic meatgrinder, which essentially means that this babe has to be in A-MAZ-ING shape!  Oh, and she's blonde too, which does not hurt.

Are You On the R.A.G.?

They inspire you to go lift weights at the gym.  They give you motivation to hit the road for a run.  They provide a reason to watch women's athletic events, no matter what the sport.  R.A.G.---Really Athletic Girls.  Are You On the Rag?  I know I am.
