I I ordered a couple items for the vlog to help with creating videos for you guys But then there's this third mystery package that we're gonna get to here in a second from Where is it from? Arizona from Arizona so very interesting and but first let's open up this package right here What do we got going on? I don't know which I just ordered a couple things to help make better videos for you guys Let's see. What is this first package here? Yeah, sir. It's a thermometer First two items the first a thermometer and the second is a Anomometer why did I oh first of all? What is an anomometer? This tracks the wind speed? So and it also tracks the wind chill So as I'm progressing through December and into January and I'm gonna give you guys my reviews about these different Clothing items that I am using for running out in the frigid temperatures, although it's not frigid yet in Denver But it's coming. I want to make sure I'm communicating to you the accurate temperatures the Humidity levels the wind speed and the wind chill so that you have a full picture in an accurate Yeah, an accurate picture of what the elements are outside as I'm giving as I'm communicating to you Okay, these gloves work in 15 to 30 degree temperatures, but they don't work below 15 degrees like your fingers will freeze off or this jacket my nice Yellow jacket that I was wearing earlier today It's like that jacket is gonna be good in humidity levels that are below 75% But over 75% maybe it won't work so well. Does that make sense? So I got these instruments to track as I'm up in the mountains, especially but even down here in Denver So I I'm just communicating clear Data to you as I'm reviewing gear for you and this a lie This could actually impact shoes to a certain extent as well If it's you know if it's below zero I'll be curious to see how that impacts the foam on different types of shoes anyway I digress. This is exciting. Stay tuned. It just got it needs to get a little colder here in Denver It's not quite cold enough yet, and this will be good for summertime. Okay package number three is from Jeff in Arizona Jeff in Arizona you remember Jeff I'll be neat to come out and take a run with them. So We're here. That's right. Jeff came to Denver.

So Jeff you might just get this ball rolling though You might just get this ball rolling. Okay. I don't even know what else to say We're gonna surprise true love here in a minute. Hold on Open from jeff in arizona It gets better This is who I ran with at wash park a couple of weeks ago. You know how it goes seek beauty We're card Just watching my broncos watching my broncos play the browns play the browns and yes enjoying a little christmas cookie You better believe it. It's december folks. It's december. All right the question of the day But let me tee it up first How do you connect today's race footage? Which was so fun to go out there and cheer and film for you guys And what arrived today at our house this box from jeff in arizona these t-shirts amazing jeff seek beauty work card Love each other. How do you connect these two to formulate a good and solid question of the day? So my wheels have been turning up there for the last couple hours and I just was thinking wait a minute Yes, yes, this is the question of the day Now think about it runners when you go to a race and you receive your race packet and you open up that bag and what's inside A bunch of flyers Maybe like some toothpaste and a keychain and you're like great great throw it in the trash throw it in the trash You're like what what some okay? I'm exaggerating a little bit most often you do receive a t-shirt, which is amazing Sometimes you receive socks, which is fine likes good, you know good pair of socks never, you know, that that's good But the question of the day For the rest of your life if there could be one item or maybe two Items in that race packet bag that you pick up that you would actually use So often I pick up these race packets and I'm so let down and disappointed I'm just going to throw this away and so this is critical Think about it What would be the one or two items that you would love to be in your race packets for the rest of your life? You know whether it's like and think outside the box, you know like great t-shirts great dry fit t-shirts great But like we have so many t-shirts as runners. We don't even know what to do with them It's like half the time we're like, okay We'll wear them for a month and then we have to get rid of them Donate them to goodwill because we we have too many so think stop. I have a couple ideas going in my mind I'm not going to mention them because I want I don't want to skew your answer I want to just hear from you. What are the one or two items you would love to receive in your race packet? Sound good. Oh, this is a this is critical And yes, I have dreams and aspirations to be a race director someday Perhaps when there's you know when I'm retired or something But I do and so it's like your insight and your input will impact Future race directors. I'll just put it that way. I'll just put it that way Seek beauty as jeff would say work hard And love each other. Thanks for being here. Mmm. Mmm. Mmm. See you tomorrow And yes almost forgot keyword of the day Pack it. You know why you know why
