Today at work, I was apart of an intern training call and we were told to introduce ourselves with our office location. I mean my office is technically in Troy, but we call it the Detroit office, so for the first time in my life... I got to say I was from Detroit. Riley from Detroit. Man I can’t say it has a ring to it, because it really doesn’t, but yeah I have no idea where I’m going with this. All I know is that I know what it’s like to say I’m from Detroit, when I’m actually living in the suburbs 45+ mins away. It’s really something.

For the run, I met up with the legend himself... Brett Roginski. He met me at the Clinton Trailhead in Rochester. Now Brett was originally going to Scissors it out and run like 5, but I told him he was a Rock and can do more than that (ok that conversation actually didn’t happen, but I’d like to think that it did internally). But shoutout to that savage, he doubled today and totaled 12, when he’s only trying to go like 35. Freak beast!

But we had a pretty good run on some wooded trails. I didn’t feel like the best and the brutal hills didn’t help, but it was nice catching up with Brett and running on some wooded trails. He’s the first person I’ve met up with to run and it looks like Charlie’s Zhou is next. Stay tuned!
