(G) There’s something about running lots of miles that makes you quotable or think you are. At least that’s what Swaggy J thinks. On Saturday when the humidity dropped from 98% to 77% (but the temperature was climbing) he says “it almost feels like air conditioning.” Hmmm, really? I almost felt like punching him. There…

Torture Report: Sweat Lodge Tennessee Style & Training Roller Coaster
