4 Feet Running - Ep. 50
Here we are as in olden days, happy golden days with 4 Feet Running! This week:
- Nik and Dan do the audio part of their Santa Dash 5K in snowy Fall River, if the fates allow
- Dan uses various excuses as to why he doesn't run more -- but till then he'll have to muddle through somehow
- Nik's streak of bad luck continues briefly, and is determined not to have a cup of cheer
- Dan can't seem to nestle all snug in his bed when it's nestling time, and visions of sugarplums keep him awake
- They talk about Christmas lights and decking the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la la, &c.
- Nik wants to deck her bike with a new tire and winter trainer, fa la la la la, &c.
- Figgy pudding is not mentioned anywhere in the show, but I thought I'd mention it here anyway
- They read a whole Santa sleighful of feedback and get several voice messages from nice people
- The annoying hiss you hear during the feedback portion of the show is the sound of the living room radiators at full blast -- sorry for the noise
