I never liked running, but I challenged myself to run a marathon. I completed my goal and still think running is torture. I always thought running was torture. But a charitable cause inspired me to train for a marathon in Hawaii. I did it; I still think running is awful.

Y'all... Today is the final day to count votes in North Carolina and NC Senate 18 is going to be decided by just a few votes.

Congrats to @bluesky for all the new users

That way we all get access to news without having to wait for them to create accounts first.
