It’s TRUE. It’s SCIENCE.

I was encouraged last night despite no HCs for rucking on social media when I read Stapler’s recent title – No One Walks Alone. But as it turns out, you are sometimes forced to walk alone when every one is too scared to be in the vicinity of one another. At least I had AC|DC to keep me company as I crushed the 4-mile route today. Perhaps some brave soul may join me for the 5-miler on Thursday. But I’ll have the bluetooth speaker with me just in case the panic level remains at 110%.
