Post-Run Hot Tub Decision by the Bay
🔮

was with some run club people like Graham and Rachel and Mateo and a few others in San Diego. We just finished running around the bay and were on the far side of the bay now. We were at this bodega about to order smoothies or drinks for post run. We were discussing what we wanted to do next and the options were either go to this hot tub along the bay, I think owned by Neill but we could use it, or go back to my apartment for some games. We couldn’t really decide on one vs the other as they both sounded good but then it was getting late and it was a Wednesday so I think I kinda wanted to just go home alone but then everyone agreed on hot tub, which was my proposed idea and I was the one with the key, so I was in for that now too so we started walking over that way after our smoothies were done.
