Thanks for the congrats JT. You're not kidding about the "mortals" comp. That kid Steve, who won, is just way to strong. The amazing thing, is that he is a really big guy. Definitely not the typical climber physique.

5/5 5k in 36:40, 70% shuffling/jogging, 30% walking (76F, warmest temp for jogging this year, and I have always suffered in the heat) Had Emma (7) with me for the first mile (13:01), then Emma (7), Elli (9), and Eve(6) for various parts of the second mile, (13:01), then they rode the golf cart for the third mile (10:39) and crewed my water bottle. On the last mile, for the first time in five years, I felt like I was "running". Objectively I wasn't, but subjectively it sure felt like it. It was a nice feeling, and one that I've dearly missed. Thank you Drs. Brooks, Joy, and Feinstein, thank you therapists Edelstein, Markowitz, and Johanssen, and thank you coaches Carl, Larry, RE, and Mike.

JT: "No thanks, I'm worked from hiking to the climb."
Climber Friend: "Ok."
JT: "I find the approach to the 5.9s in the gym to be more suitable."
Climber Friend: "You are funny."
