I'll be there in about two hours. @Olympian1010 Experts are welcome.

Alright, Friday or Saturday?

@Olympian1010 Would you like your run this weekend? Otherwise I'm planning some Christmas special runs for next week when my holidays begin.

That concluded quickly but I hope you'll be back for more runs in the future. It was a difficult path. Unfortunately, the big-winning streak is coming to an end but as always, thanks for playing.
