Life continues, the hamstring is getting better daily.  This week has been 7, 8 and a 9-miler today, each one picking up speed (I’m pacing to the injury, not going above whisper status).  Today I hit normal paces, so that was nice.   As for the Friday’s speedwork,  I think I’ll be pushing it to Saturday or even Sunday.  I need at least one day (better yet, two) where I feel perfect before challenging it.

On to the video…

For all you water-carrying individuals who find your bottles get harder and harder to open, this little tip from the kitchen will save your teeth and keep your bottles in tip-top shape.  Extra bonus features: a zit on my left cheek and a variety of unattractive grimaces…all yours for free!  Enjoy.

  • Great job with the workouts and thank you for the video. I was starting to get sore teeth from opening and closing mine! And I must thank you again for the recommendation of the Amphipod. I love it!!

  • great video. and it’s awesome that you’re getting back into the swing of things and that your hammy is letting you. very smart call pushing off the speedwork as you definitely want to be at 100% for those workouts

  • Jenn:

    I’m glad to hear your hammy is healing nicely. So great that it was only a grade I and you can still run!

  • Kazz:

    Woohoo on the healing hammy! Nice tip on the oil….I will have to give that a go.

    There were some awesomely unrelated related videos on YouTube such as How To Make A Water Bottle Bomb, and Woman Blows Up Hot Water Bottle. I won’t be checking out those how-to’s.

  • Ewen:

    Kazz beat me to it. ‘How to Booby Trap a Water Bottle’ has 780,000 views but isn’t half as good as your video ;)
