I already have a whole lot of stuff I’m managing. Or at least that’s the way I feel. Sometimes I run past another runner, and I feel like the Terminator. With all my gadgets and belts and packets. And not the Terminator in a good way… like I know they’re giggling a little on the inside.

That was all unnecessary. I also don’t need the wash cloth because I have cool running shorts with a mesh part. That mesh part, my friend, is never saturated. All I have to do is rub my fingers across it, and it’s like a… bristly brush. 🤔

I made a terrible video with your meter bracelet in it, @Eric… Am I allowed to post it in here? It’s actually embarrassingly bad, but it shows the meter?? I don’t know if there’s any point or not…
