When I saw this toot I was thinking "oh, what kind of math? Category theory? Graph theory? Abstract algebra?"

For better or worse the math described seems to be largely tracking calories expended and consumed during the race. I'm afraid I don't have experience with doing higher mathematics at any pace faster than a moderate walk. #mathstodon
