New pen day: QC inspector hard at work.
Metal case passed inspection. It spins enough to be fun, but not enough to fly off the table.

I was due to run a 58km race in Snowdonia on Sunday, but we were just informed that it’s not going to happen due to the forecasted heat. We will be running the marathon distance instead. When I checked the forecast for Llanberis nearby, it looked like it’d be a high of 24C that day. I understand there might be high humidity as well, but it doesn’t sound too terrible to me, although there would be ~20km gap between aid stations at one point. I’m not from the UK and this will be my first time in Wales. Is this typical? Or is this just an abundance of caution issue?
Is there a good place where a tourist can take some tango lessons this July? I’ll be traveling alone, have never danced the tango before, and only know some basic Turkish (Türkçem çok zayıf?)
I’m running a 57km next month that only permits the use of bone conduction headphones. I usually just wear AirPods and find them quite comfy/like how light and minimal they are and was hoping to swap them with something similar here. The race is pretty technical and I’m guessing it’ll take me ~7-8 hrs to finish, so good battery life is a plus (I think I get ~5-6hrs out of my AirPods.) I don’t have a budget but staying under $200 USD would be ideal.
