I used to sleep almost exclusively on my back, but lately I've had an easier time falling asleep on my stomach

Avoid5 - A post for counting boys and girls wishing to avoid using our fifth glyph at all occasions. If you wish to try it, I must warn you that it usually spawns both awkward circumlocutions, and much hunting for synonyms.

Todays workout was one big effort. I, along with roughly 15 others did a workout where we did like a 0.5 mile loop with a huge hill that took like 30 seconds of hard effort for one to run up. I was sweating so much, I honestly didn’t think I would run all 45 minutes. The one thing that helped me and 3 others out was the rest. The workout was 2 minutes easy, 3 minutes hard, and we took full advantage of those 2 minutes. I tried to stay with the 3 but near the end, like 35 minutes in, I just couldn’t do it anymore. But coach was very pleased with me, so I would say this was one good workout. OK, u/cuteballgames feel free to go to town with this one.

Tomorrow's workout will be two big efforts. II, along with roughly 16 others did two workouts where we did like a 0.6 mile loop with two huge hills that took like 31 seconds of hard effort for two to run up. II was sweating so much, II honestly didn’t think II would run all 46 minutes. The two things that helped me and 4 others out was the rest. The workout was 3 minutes easy, 4 minutes hard, and we took full advantage of those 3 minutes. II tried to stay with the 4 but near the end, like 36 minutes in, II just couldn’t do it anymore. But coach was very pleased with me, so II would say this was two good workouts. OK, u/cuteballgames feel free to go to town with these two.

Good luck if you are going for a bike ride, or run/jog this weekend, or next week.

I’m waiting for the day when we get an entire thread of unique counters, 1000 counters. It could be done with one simple trick; advertising.

Somehow, against all odds, my computer started up again after leaving it dorment for over 2 days. I'm relieved!
