I'm in a local #running club where one runner has OCD about everyone ending their runs on .00 miles. If you end up short at .99, he'll make sure to comment on your Strava run asking why you couldn't just run around the parking lot or whatever to push it over.
Well tomorrow is his 40th birthday, so a friend and I decided to have a bit of fun making a self-referential Strava art: drawing "9.99 MILES" that is indeed 9.99 miles.
Happy Birthday friend!
