Flip turns! Get your flip turns right here! Get 'em while they'r hot! Seriously, I think I'm starting to get a hang of these things. Now to just make them faster...and not accidentally go into the other lane every 10th one.

September 13

Run
  • 1h 29m 22s

The bad news - warm and humid so HR was high and pace was slow. Probably should have taken some water with me. Everything was sweat drenched after 5 miles.

The good news - longest run since February. Double digits again. Ding. Woo.

Rest day

The wisdom of a 1st grader - "Dad, a fart is just a really loud toot. But if I tried to fart right now, I would pee."
