For anyone who is interested in The Purple Hibiscus, watch Chimamanda’s TED Talk. We show it to our faculty at least once a year. https://www.ted.com/talks/chimamanda_adichie_the_danger_of_a_single_story?language=en

Anyone want to do this?! It’s a stair climb of the World Trade Center. Just 102 floors…easy.

I rowed for cals last two sets of dubs, fearful of a stress fracture in my foot. Can’t imagine how I did that.
Thanks for setting the precedent :/. I did something to my foot in the massive 800m runs I did yesterday. Icing it now. Could have been new shoes but who knows…
Crazy Dan running miles upon miles all the time vs. Melissa running 2 800m runs. Totally comparable. 🙂
Obv @Baston
New shoes are the devil, I’ve been running in the same pair since 2010 for that reason.
