I Plead The Fourth

Is anyone around for TRY this week? Probably not, but mid 70s and sunny at TRY time. Next week there is no TRY due to the post Boilermaker hangover. See the separate invite for our fun alternative night. (Get a hold of me if you didn't get an invite.) So with the holiday and then the BM there is a two week sabbatical this summer.

I assume most people will be celebrating the holiday somewhere? So enjoy yourself some holiday-ing and be sure to seek out some noise and air pollution!

I know I enjoy them myself, but how much longer are we going to allow this stuff to continue? We are mostly all for the Paris Climate Accord and yet we gleefully gather in large numbers and cheer on ground, water, and air pollution. Does this even make sense anymore? (Hat tip to Disney for working on a partially better way! Score one for Berms!)

And just because I expect no one to show up for TRY does not mean that it is a wasted week - I've built up some links of interest for you on this "off" week. Here are a couple about running and exercising:

1) The biggest mistakes that all levels of runners make. (Including a couple about overuse!)

2) Common exercise myths. (OK, not really running, but ties in nicely and these myths are debunked by SCIENCE!)

Lastly, this is perfect on a day where very few should be working as this gets into NSFW links. As the non-running leader of a running group you can imagine that I get asked a lot of questions and by far the most common questions that I DON'T get asked are about sex...so here you go. (Lifehacker seems to have gotten on a sex kick lately?)

1) How much sex should you be having? (It's well reasoned and has links to more information.)

2) The nice persons guide to playing rough. (My safe word is "Versace"! If you don't have one, be sure to think of one for yourself and share it with your partner.)

Why does the fourth of July always land in the first week of July?! Seems like an odd coincidence to me.
