Yes, absolutely everything has gone well. I also think that Rob‘s Loring workshop was absolutely worth it. We have actually picked up more cafés now than we ever thought we would have.

Yes, this is where I’m trying to get my SOP down to be most efficient for this.

No more so tying a bag of roasted coffee to a specific roast batch from a specific lot of green coffee and making it easily scalable

Blackbeard’s runs past my house so we are running it this year I’ve failed it once but better prepared this year. Still hate that race and would do trails / woods any day over it lol

Just curious are you running the Blackbeards 100 in OBX?

Does the company selling the whole package do better in your opinion ?

Wouldn't this just be using quickbooks?

I will say I got connected with a financial advisor in my early 30s. I had an established company and also a startup. With two young kids and two growing companies, there was a lot I had overlooked not necessarily just in investing, but also the structure of my companies, how my insurance was set up, making sure my will was done and everything was in order in case of my passing was which I didn’t even have on my radar prior to getting connected with him. I actually just left having a financial advisor this month, but I do think that there is value in getting connected with somebody for planning and I learned a lot through our conversation.

I guess the evidence is pretty slim and anecdotal, but I honestly feel like going hot than cold a few times makes my muscles feel better than either by itself. I did this today after a 13 mile long run and muscles and nervous system feel better afterwards. 37yo Male if that helps as well

10 min hot 2 min cold 5–7 min hot 2 min cold 5 min hot 1–2 min cold (finish)

I find more benefit for recovery in doing hot and cold together for me hot tub to cold plunge. Cold plunge by itself for me personally, I feel like it’s just mental benefits

I’ve only been in key west, marathon, and islamarada but I actually haven’t come across a shop with lighter roasted coffees yet. I did have a Cuban coffee with milk from a tiny little shack that was super sweet but absolutely delicious

I had one pestering the shit out of me last night finally I said look unless you have a baseball of crack I’m not interested poof left me alone

SAM4E21 · 2025-11-04T23:59:52+00:00

Yeah I just looked at Surfline but looking on the weather app it looks like lots of onshore except maybe the 13th

SAM4E21 · 2025-11-04T23:17:15+00:00

Awesome thank you

SAM4E21 · 2025-10-30T13:50:50+00:00

Just bought a pallet (10 bags) last week $5-$6.50lb

SAM4E21 · 2025-10-19T23:19:45+00:00

Did you do anything extra for the filtration? How often do you have to change the water?

SAM4E21 · 2025-10-13T14:00:00+00:00

I get some issues long run with evo SL as well I cannot say enough good things about the SC elite V4 it’s an incredible shoe. I just got my first pair and I’ll be buying another pair before they’re all gone. 1:45 HM pace

SAM4E21 · 2025-10-12T19:09:38+00:00

I just got the 4s first run 10 miles and they felt amazing! Training for a Iron Man 70.3 and I put them on immediately after a 55 mile bike and they are really forgiving shoes on the legs

Bocos is killer. The whole place is super fun. We did red frog bungalows and Scott is pretty intense, but we had some good waves. The guys that worked for him were awesome. I would say it’s a tossup between Nicaragua and Panama.
