Good. Keep em coming. Many things have doubled in cost the last 10-15 years while wages stay the same.

I went to get a bag of chips today and it rang up $6.09 at the self checkout. I left the bag there and walked out.

Soft drink with any meal anywhere is 3-4 bucks now, so I just have water now.

What seems to be the problem?

What makes it awesome?

Last time this happened to me it was because I didn’t eat enough beforehand.

Usually I eat a decent lunch then go for my run a couple hours later - maybe eating a banana 15-30 min before. That day because there were thunderstorms forecasted I skipped lunch and just had a banana and a cliff bar before my run. Got tired pretty early on that day.

Two week taper. I’m not sure the elevation, but I ran 12 miles in the same area last year and the elevation gain was 1500 ft for that run according to Strava.

As for back to back runs, all I can say for now is “we’ll see.” I’d like to get on that level. It also depends on how you define a long run. Could I run another 35k today? Absolutely not lol.

Running a 35km training run tomorrow in preparation for my first 50k! I struggled with a hamstring injury the first part of the year so I’m glad to be where I’m at now.

Like a record player.

I would but I’m getting the 16 pro when it comes out so not worth the effort.

I got mine replaced due to the sides peeling as well (covered under warranty) and the replacement is now peeling after only a few months. Hopefully whatever is next is a little more durable - even the leather cases the last few years lacked in that area.
