I&#8217;ll get back to you guys in a couple hours.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, quick story from yesterday. I&#8217;m in the sauna after training, two other dudes in there, one older, one younger. I enter the space and stretch a bit and sit down. After abot 10 minutes, the older guy starts emptying the contents of his sinuses into his gym towl&#8211; the towels you get with your membership and that you return after you&#8217;re done using it. The first time he did it was nasty and cringe worthy. The second time I started to get highly annoyed. And, a few minutes later as he began to blow shnoz again, before I could stop myself I said: &#8220;That&#8217;s pretty gross.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And both of them looked at me. And I said: &#8220;You can&#8217;t get a tissue or something?&#8221; And he said: &#8220;There&#8217;s sweat all over the floor in here, isn&#8217;t that gross?&#8221; And I said: &#8220;There&#8217;s a huge difference between sweat and the insides of your sinus. You know other people will be using that towel, right?&#8221; And he said: &#8220;Yeah after it&#8217;s washed.&#8221; And I said: &#8220;You don&#8217;t see people walking around wiping their asses with their gym towel.&#8221; And he said: &#8220;Don&#8217;t get\u00a0vulgar.&#8221; And I said: &#8220;Blowing your nose into a public gym towel is vulgar, especially when there are paper towels right there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And that was the end. The younger guy got up and left at some point. And after a few minutes, I left the older guy, maybe in his 50s, alone in there.<\/p>\n<p>On my walk home I wondered if I done the right thing, or the wrong thing.<\/p>\n<p>Later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Racing to prepare for an 11a meeting.
