How I did it: 8 years of Spanish classes in high school and college (minor) followed by a month in South America to practice and hone my skills in an actual Spanish-speaking environment. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Bought one. Sliced it in half. Sucked on an ice cube. Popped it in my mouth. Filmed the whole time. Lots of milk, ice cubes, and Tums afterwards. A fraternity brother of mine had done it before and said it was an out-of-body experience... that it was. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Someone drunkenly taught it to me one night and I was able to retain the knowledge over to the next day when my friend and I played 10 games straight. I'm still working on nailing the strategy, but I love it. Good game, glad I FINALLY know how to play. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
completed this morning with a time of 49:45, placing 20th of 65… not bad.
good training for the half marathon in a month!
10K at Ursuline College in Pepper Pike, OH
with a time of 23:27… not bad for my first race ever. good training for the chicago half-marathon this september.
smaller 5k, but neat course. called “run through the pines”, and although you’re on uneven dirt trails, grass, etc the whole time, the course was beautifully unique
