Do you heat up your pan before adding butter and/or oil? That's an important step to avoid sticking.

Knitting gloves. Neat. I like that idea. Especially since they were only found in the colder regions of the Roman Empire.

It's a half marathon's distance as the bird flies from JFK to midtown. That's almost four and a half hours at a twenty minute pace. Not walkable for anyone but an athlete.

Barring something like serious obesity or disability it’s impossible for me to imagine an adult who couldn’t walk for for and a half hours, especially on flat terrain. That’s basically an easy hike.

I've never run a marathon and probably never will but I've walked 20 miles several times at a slow pace and never thought it was that hard.
