My friends Dan and Janine Patitucci have launched a new website about trail running in the Alps, which, even if you don’t run, will probably make you want to visit and/or move there.
This website has been stealing and reposting my blog posts for a few weeks now. Sometimes they use some sort of bot to substitute synonyms for different words, resulting in some fairly hilarious prose—like changing “the Big Bang” to “Large Bang” and the “Bright Angel Trail” to the “Shiny Angel Path” in my post about the Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim from a couple weeks ago.
