Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

You realize it's an addiction when you intend to do 5k. Realize after that Strava didn't work properly on your watch and then you end up doing a second 5k because the first 5k didn't count.

Finish marathon

Legs on fire

Garmin says you only ran 25.6 miles

Have to run another half mile at race pace (so you don't ruin your stats) to make sure you get credit for a marathon

Dang. Congrats on your sweet tangents! Every race I run, ESPECIALLY that kinda distance, my watch is always going to be a bit over.
