Reversal of Fortune

I was watching Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on the 4th and thoroughly enjoyed myself. It was hilarious, amazing and disgusting all rolled into one. One of the many highlights was a rule called the "reversal of fortune" (no throwing up). I loved it. And today I had a reversal of fortune of my own.

I didn't throw up but things do seem to be going backward as the summer moves forward. I went on a 4 mile trail run today for the first time in several weeks and found that my legs were exhausted. Normally it's the lungs that give out before all but not this time. I can attribute this reversal of fortune to treadmill running. But it was still nice to get out and enjoy the run-able weather today.

Here's a picture of my birthday stuff:
