@MNLittleFinn If the bib is the kind that glues on you should still use pins anyway
Today was hot. And damp. An one point I started exhaling steam, just like in the winter. The temp was around 75 degrees. And I was becoming a steam locomotive. Choo Choo. I was pretty sure I was still dreaming cause that shouldn't be possible right?

Run
Ice cream
Coffee
Eclairs
R.I.C.E for women
I'll have some. I do love eclairs.
I'm still kind of tired and out of motivation after Sunday (the 8K was my longest run so far), but the weather is great right now and you guys are making me want to get out there. I think I'll schedule a run for tomorrow morning.
I could use a little chocolate to cheer me up anyway - there's a trail I tried to run a few weeks ago, but I gave up, because it was too steep to run. It's been nagging at me ever since, so I went back and tried again today. I stuck with it until the top, but I was probably walking 80% of it. Really depressing! When I got home, I saw that of course it is a Strava segment, and judging by everyone else's pace, apparently most people are walking a fair amount of it. Most people were still faster than me, but I got an éclair in the end, so I decided I'm still going to count it as a good run. And the road down the mountain was fun6 -
@_nikkiwolf_ Mmmm! Sounds awesome! Nice run!1

As far as bibs are concerned, I usually pin mine to my shirt the night before (for my flat Stanley). Just one less thing to worry about in the morning. I seen people also pin it to their shorts (for the shirt-less dudes). The RD should supply pins. If you do packet pickup the day off, I usually bring an extra set of pins with me just in case. With all the races my wife and I have done, it's easy to find bib-pins in my home. Heck, I think we each have a set in the car already.2
