Overhear people speaking Spanish, Italian, Farsi, French, Chinese, Japanese, and, yes, English - American, and English-English, ...

But it could be followed by 7am kettle bells... But avg ...

    Hopeless Repurposing of Old Skis, Part I

      On a Monday nights lately, I'm buzzed from skiing. I actually committed to something - an 8-week long, twice a week, race training program.
