Do NOT get me started on the status of college football and all these crazy, BS conferences. If I was College FB Czar, I'd have us all back to regional-focused leagues with 10-12 members and a 16-team playoff.

About a week after severely banging up my left shin to avoid being attacked by 4 loose dogs, I was able to log my scheduled 20-mile run today. So, marathon training chugs along. #RunChat

Digestible chunks is a great way to handle tough runs. #RunChat

I break into segments: next street, next sign, next fence post. Whatever I need to keep my body moving forward

A5: I don't listen to music while running, but there's any number of songs I could hear every time I go for a run. #RunChat

Hopefully you hit 650 with ease and can make that stretch goal. #RunChat

A2: So far, the worst injury is the one I'm currently nursing, which is a bruised and cut up left shin. I got it from jumping into a dumpster/trailer full of wood and rebar to avoid 4 loose dogs. #RunChat

I'm not that invested in Tech football, so not upset about the loss. However, it also shows how different the Tech offense is when their QB1 is out vs. Will Hammond in there. I'm sure the B12 will beat up on each other a lot over the course of the season.

So many evangelicals believe they're saved because they follow the rules not because of God's grace, so they expect others to do the same.

Your Sun Devils played well and had a great game plan to face the Tech offense.

Thanks for confirming that I don't need to create an account on Threads. I know it was real popular a bit ago to shit there from Twitter, but I resisted. I'm glad that I didn't make the move, and it seems like I don't need to.

WOW! I'm a #Braves fan, so I'm not following the Giants managerial search at all. However, this is not the hire I would've expected.

I understand #FIBA doesn't want players country hopping, but this is unfair. Let Ogwumike represent her parents' gome country and help grow the game.

My favorite part about this is the camera work. Absolutely no idea where the ball is, like a guy with a flip phone trying to take a picture of Mars.

Like others, I am working on the goal of running a half marathon in all 50 states. Unlike Jenny Simpson, I'm not an Olympian nor trying to accomplish it in 50 weeks! #RunChat

As an FYI, this is by FAR my biggest struggle with running right now. I've ALWAYS felt safe running in my cities, until moving to my current home. Right now, I'm so flipping paranoid about unleashed/stray dogs that it's messing with my mental health. #RunChat

Steven Ericson @stevenonthemove.bsky.social · 6d

100% agree about listening. I'm struggling with that right now and my goal to run every street in town. Given my most recent incident with unleashed dogs, I should give up on that objective. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to accept that decision.
