Hey. I apologize for all the trouble RER has been having this week. You are Piling on too many MILES!!!!
So yeah, RER was down for two days and I had to make the executive decision to fire all RER employees. Boo.
Hopefully, it’s up and running now and this isn’t the 3rd post in a row that is going to make me crazy!!!
If not I might pack it in and retire to Costa Rica…
So, I’m going to keep the Wednesday, Thursday and today’s comment section open through Monday 3pm PST so everyone gets a chance to enter for each day. Please go to the appropriate day and enter your check in for that day:
Friday – below.
Please leave a comment below with your POTM check in for Friday. You’ll be entered to win a pair of Mizuno Running shoes.
