[epilogue]

Am I gonna regret Googling "donkey goggles"?

[verb_to_trust]

Just go to the Goodr website and browse all the cool colors.

I've been going 6 days a week for a while now and my IT band had a mild flare up. I get what you're saying Joey, I've really enjoyed just being locked in and lost in my routine. We shouldn't be afraid to take a break if we need it. I know I need one, it's been about 9 months since ive been off.

It's so difficult to pull back. Why is that?

It's an addiction for me.

I'd be dead in a ditch somewhere without running.

I can't lose it.

Switching into a fresh pair of Bostons. How do you add your shoe to Strava. I'd like to keep track of the miles on them but can't seem to find it on the app or mobile site. Is it a Summit thing? Because I don't fuck with Summit.

You have to log in online, I believe.

You can't do it in the app.

I'm really looking forward to next summer. I think I made massive strides this year and now I'm am working on my upper body more over the winter. I think this will prove to be a big help with my running. Don't get me wrong I still get a 7km in once a week but everything just turned to ice out here so things could get very challenging for the next little while.

I appreciate the recognition

you guys honestly are soft though. me and my buddy are planning on having a campfire tonight. life is what you make it, but you guys are too soft to make it into anything unless the conditions are perfect.

[run2death]

I'll admit that I'm pretty soft in the cold. Cold and dark is a non-starter for me.

But I question if Dev would able to run in the summer conditions I run in. 5 months of 100-degree temps isn't fun.

[Dev]

You'd be surprise how hot it get's up here in the summer. Manitoba is the second warmest place in Canada after the Okanagon valley in the summer. Basically my weather is extreme all year round. It settles at about 86 F in the summer. Of course, I prefer to run on cooler days. How hot will you run in?

[run2death]

I'll run in 110-plus degrees.

Just plan on adding 1:30 a mile to your running times.

[washing machine]

It's an honor, RM Strava. Here's hopping for a repeat in 2019.

[verb_to_trust]

IT band is sore again after a 10k yesterday and 8 more today. Was hoping 2 days off would be enough.

[Dev]

It's pretty easy to stretch the IT once you figure it out.

[verb_to_trust]

Yeah I'm working on it.
