I don't mind the outfit at all, but don't male coaches have to wear full suits? I hate the dress code double standards, she can just be out there in what's basically casual wear and get praise from everyone. Guys should be able to coach in jeans and a polo shirt or whatever, then.
Coaches do not have to be fully suited up. I know locally, Tom Izzo wears a hoodie on occasion. Also, does go with a suit a lot too, but it's not a dress code double standard.

God damn dude. Those are some numbers. I doubt I'll ever get my pace close to that since I'm too damn lazy to really try and train for much faster times. Your marathon is over an hour off of mine. I nearly died going for a 4 hour marathon. I still blame the giant fucking bridge to Canada in the first 5k of the Detroit International marathon. That bridge destroyed me for the remainder of the run.

Oh, fuck that lol I would much rather run in the cold than the heat. I can only take so much off and I sweat my balls off in the heat. The cold I can layer up pretty well and have dealt with temps down to -10F without too much of an issue other than eyelashes freezing up and chapped lips.

Oh and the chafing does get worse once I have to wear my cold weather tights, but if I am very liberal with my Glide stick on my taint it's normally not too bad.

This morning was a bit of a rough slippery run since all the slush we got yesterday solidified over night, but for the most part I haven't really had to run in real cold weather so far this month. Maybe one day that dipped below 20F, but I actually got 2 shirtless runs in this December which is pretty crazy.

Not saying kill them, just ban breeding them. There are plenty of other dogs to choose from. Pit owners are just narcissists, they love the way they can walk around with a pit and feel feared, powerful. While simultaneously they figure themselves to be the saviors of a discriminated race of poor doggos.
My sister had a pit mix and I can say that seeing/hearing people be afraid of her made me feel like shit because the Kali was a sweet heart. An extremely nice, loyal dog that wanted exercise, cuddles, and as much love as she could get. She wasn't in our family because we liked to feel feared and powerful with her around; my sister picked her at the pound because she was a great dog that needed a home.

Enough people know this, and I know people like you who think they are all dangerous aren't going to be swayed by the reality that it's all about the owners and what situations you put dogs in, but I still feel the need to spread the pit love. They are an amazing breed.

A very snowy 10k this morning. Odie was psyched and every quarter mile or so I'd hear his teeth scraping the cement as he scooped some snow up to eat on the run. I could barely see and it slowed me down a bit, but I'm glad I got the run in instead of having to come in early to deal with plowing the snow..

An ugly personality sure. An ugly person is no less sad though. In the end I feel for anyone who takes their own life though. Mental health issues are hard to get around and even people who seem like shit heads would probably be much more bearable if they worked their issues out.

I've survived years of suicidal thoughts and wouldn't wish that on anyone. It can get better, and make a huge impact on who you are as a person if you can get through it.

More or less. I work for the government, so there are several layers of bureaucracy between me and the actual impact of what my department does, which makes it feel less rewarding, but it's important work and I feel like I make a meaningful contribution to those that I directly work with/for, so that's fun.
Are you comfortable saying what part of the government you work for? I always find it interesting hearing from people in state/federal jobs because a lot of it mirrors the work I do with the university. We're like a smaller government that is only worth a couple billion dollars.

Sounds like people in this topic have some pretty terrible luck with shipping issues. I have probably a bit under a hundred packages per month delivered to me at work and have very few issues with any of them. Maybe I'm just lucky with where I am, but I'd be fucked if I couldn't count on Fedex/UPS/USPS.

For the most part, with the few issues I have run into over the years, I will call the vendor I purchased it from and if they confirm the issue I am dealing with in shipping they'll deal with the shipping company while they resend me a new package.

Sorry your item appears to be lost for now. Hopefully it isn't anything that is too vital.
