Note
Long run up at Happy Jack, trees were thickly coated in rime frost. Dinner with John and Suzanne afterwards.
One of the things we talked about was toughness. We came up with 4 levels: 1) ordinary tough, 2) Cowboy tough, 3) Maldonado tough, and then the highest level of toughness 4) Ukrainian tough.
Then there are degrees of toughness which in reality are the opposite of tough. For example, something like "tough mudder" toughness, which is close to being oxymoronic.
