Finding the A.Z.T. is never an issue.

This makes me think Dallas Buyer's Club

I did not know that.

This takes me back to when late night TV was actually worth a shit.

The answers are in envelopes and have been hermetically sealed in a mayonnaise jar. Put that in yer Funk and Wagnalls'.

Today was one of the hardest hikes I can remember doing. I was mentally preparing to make a rough bivy on the trail. Once I got to the van I had to lay on the bed for an hour and a half before I could try to get up. Almost threw up a small bowl of mashed potatoes.

 From what you said this morning it sounds like you had caught a bad bug and your choice of R&R was relentless and rigorous.

Yeah, starting at 5:00 a.m.   Several severe “runs to the bathrooms” so to speak. But by 9:30, two doses of Imodium had it stopped so I went for it. Starting exhausted and dehydrated made 16.8 warm miles feel like 25.
