What's the story on these? I missed it.
I came here to ask that too.

Streak update: I hate it. All I can think about is that I'm going to have to keep doing this for the next 97 days.

I appreciate the streak. It makes me get out on the weekends and has kicked my ass to start running again. I was going to do Monday to Friday commuting, so now at the end of the 15 weeks I will feel I have accomplished something over having just commuted to work.

They are a minimalist shoe that are basically a clone of the Merrell Vapor Gloves.

They go for $20 to $25 on Amazon. I have a friend who swears by them. I've always been skeptical, but they're actually pretty awesome.

I do appreciate it. I like that I did it yesterday even though I didn't want to. I like that I went ahead and closed my short loop on my map even though I could have just stopped at the mile I told myself I'd get. I liked the way I felt after the short run. I just hate the streak and don't want to do this 97 more times in a row, that's all. :lol: :gomez:

So exhausted today. Two 30+ minute rides in 50 degree rain. Coming home was a downpour. Then 45 minutes in the gym. So glad I can sleep in a bit tomorrow.

:shock: Damn. If someone would have told me Rob would be the first one out of the streak, I would have laughed in their face.

Dude's a beast.

Hopefully that's aimed at a different Rob. I just got my day 5 in.

Done about 40 miles in the past four days in steep terrain. Pleased with that. I do not run in the steepest climb.

Forgot my bus pass yesterday so ended up running into and home from work. Was only planning on running in. It went surprisingly well and my legs felt okay today biking in. I will try to run both ways twice a week. 10% done this 100 day challenge.
