As
@LSUlakes is walking all of those miles today, he suggested I take my proposed QOTD and use it for Today, and propose others keep it going through Sunday. So, here it is:
Question of the Day:
There have recently been several admonishments to be seen while running. Our friends in the southern hemisphere are getting more daylight hours but many of us fewer. Do you modify your time, route, gear or anything else based on the quantity of daylight available?
ATTQOTD: Over the summer I had been exploring new routes with the aims of fewer hills and more drinking fountains. I have learned these also have fewer lights and are less traveled than my well lit, hilly route. I think I will likely be returning to the more lit, more hilly path for weekdays and maybe saving the other route for weekends. Also, they will likely turn off the drinking fountains soon so that removes part of the appeal. I was surprised to see more than one runner holding a flashlight in their hand while running last week. I do NOT think I could do that. I did try to attach my bike light to my waist band and found that while it is fine for biking, I cannot stand it while running. Ditto for the headlamp.
Follow up on business: I found it hard to ask anything for the first 6 months of lurking. Does anyone newer to the board wish to volunteer for Wednesday? If not, I will nominate someone after 1:45 pm Eastern (because I will be sitting in a meeting at which I will multitask).
Also, volunteers for Thursday & Friday?
