Just some good dogs during our ‘post run party’ - basically everyone just runs around together and relaxed while I unharness and unbootie. It’s one of my favourite times of the day!

The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

Several states (including California, Michigan, Oregon, and Wisconsin) have announced that they’ve begun processing full food stamp payments. Thank you to those states for stepping up to support families in need!
