Great conversation. I wonder if they were consuming the needed additional calories (another 500-800 kCal) when they were nursing. Sometimes people use that period to get back their pre-baby body and if you are not consuming those additional calories, it could lead to fatigue/exhaustion, and that deregulated feeling.

Colorado has some super big single pitches, especially a lot of multi-pitch. We do have a lot of short pitches, but plenty of big singles. Oftentimes I even use an 80meter just to be sure!

Smart man using an 80!
