8 excuses I'll try out on friends to avoid the 27 mile hike this weekend

1. Oh my knee hurts terribly, I don't think I could complete the entire trail.
   
   
2. My manager's just scheduled a super important meeting at the end of the day on Friday, and I've already tried skipping it twice.
   
   
3. Actually, I'm getting married that day, oops just checked my calendar, sorry!
   
   
4. I'm very sensitive to altitude changes, I get sick climbing the four flights of stairs to my apartment!
   
   
5. Diarrhoea issues, sorry.
   
   
6. I need to catch up on my work-work.
   
   
7. It's my sister's birthday and I need to wish her.
   
   
8. I have a date that day, oops (lol)
