RAF402: Back to the Gym Again Again

And right now, I’m on my way to the gym. I’m on my way to the gym for the first time in a really long time. I can’t even remember the last time I went to the gym. However, I have been paying them every month for that whole time. I guess I just kind…

RAF401: Working Through The Tired

I’m out walking along Spring Creek here. Doing alright. Hydration report: somebody left a full bottle of Gatorade in my yard. It was unopened so I put it in the fridge. I’ve been drinking it and it tastes like Gatorade. But it’s called Frost Glacier Freeze. But it’s as cool as it is. It’s not…

RAF394: Aging Reversed! Part 7 – Cold and Heat Exposure
