A cool thing happened on my run last night. I am the proud owner of a Black Diamond Sprinter Headlamp that I purchased for Ragnar Tennessee last year. These are great lights, with a ton of features. The battery pack (and therefore the weight) is actually on the back of your head for balance, and […]
Weight: 277.2lbs Three Week Gain / (Loss): +1.2lbs Two Week Gain / (Loss): (-1.0lbs) Total Gain / (Loss): (-50.2lbs) So, the last time I actually posted a weigh-in was three weeks ago, on March 2nd.
