77F, 89%.  7:49 AP.  Sticky.  Finished with a 6:48, basically my MP from Boston.  Today it was probably 5k effort...yeesh.  Had to take advantage of my special spot, 3.5 miles away.  It went pretty well, I think.

I pray that I never find SlowJoe's special spot.

I second that Tom K.!

slowjoe's sticky special spot. super.

I used to painfully hold it...for years even - you know, like a normal, civilized human being. But once you go down that dark path one time, you are never the same. You look at bodily functions through a different colored lens. I will never be a 'normal' again.

It happened to me once, @ 2 years ago. I never want to have that "Oh, No!" moment again. I feel like I'm jinxing myself by just mentioning how long ago that was.

Allie’s alliteration, as always, is amazing.

I agree, once you've pooped in the wild with no toilet paper, you can never be a civilized human being again.

You guys keep me amused ...! :-)

How do you not know how it went? Didn't you check your drawers when you got home?

From SlowJoe on Thu, Jul 11, 2013 at 15:40:10 from 12.132.197.125

Tracy - good point. I will let you know about my drawers, a HAZMAT team is analyzing them now.
