It's ridiculous how many Coke (and water, and juice, and booze) bottles I see along the road. These babies are my gold! They're worth 3 points each, and it only takes about a billion of them to get free stuff. I also always keep an eye out for cash. Here and there I will find a penny, a nickel, or a dime. But today, 15 miles into my horrible hot and humid long run, I found a five dollar bill!The Accidental Marathonerhttp://www.theaccidentalmarathoner.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2647157930116406632.post-44322560536452100682016-08-08T10:00:57.090-05:002016-08-08T10:00:57.090-05:00I haven't seen any Free Little Libraries in th...I haven't seen any Free Little Libraries in the city, come to think of it!
