No spinning for Gemma, due to sinus issues. Abby is working on her 3 Feet of Sheep.

About spinning with joy and experimenting at the wheel.
Strategy:
Eat Cheesecake. Now. With a good friend. Trust me. And hang out with podcaster pals!
Put a Lid On It:
Not this time.
Aw Shoot!
Despite the class-action suit against Vibram (which was filed by someone who never actually used the shoes), I still love mine. I wear them for everything except running because I do not want to reduce my distance in running to acclimate to barefoot running.
Summer Running Essentials:
Please remember to hydrate you and any running pals.
Important facts:

Any mammal can carry only up to one quarter of its weight.
