Thing The One: it’s nice to know I can crap out 50k without having to build up to it past the marathon distance (probably because I run a marathon almost every week).

Thing The Deuce: my Fitly water running pack finally bit it today. It didn’t break during my run, fortunately, but once I got home and was unzipping one of the front pockets to get my key, the little fabric/plastic holder for one of the shoulder straps broke. It’s not actually fabric so I don’t think I can sew it, and I don’t know if I’d trust glue on it given I usually take that thing on 4+ hour runs.

Thing The Three: my mom is here for a week!

Yayz.
