This was a lot of fun to read. And emotive, as well, the way you linked it with your sister. Beautiful.

I didn't know about spartan races but the name itself makes it clear it's not for the faint of heart 😅 Well done you.

As for exclamation points in song titles, Shania Twain comes to the rescue, with not one, but three song titles:

Man! I Feel Like a Woman!

Whatever You Do! Don't!

Waiter! Bring Me Water!

She loves using exclamation points in songs, so she was my first point of call (with Man! I Feel Like a Woman!), but I wasn't expecting to find two more songs in her repertoire with two non-consecutive exclamation points. Man! What a treat!
