Example 1: One hour and thirty minutes noted as 1'30" – indicating a duration (not a time of day).

Example 2: Five feet and four inches noted as 5'4" – indicating a distance (or measurement, like height).

Granted, I cannot find anything in the AP Guide nor Chicago Manual of Style condoning this kind of punctuation. However, I see it a lot in columnar charts.

As for speedy, well, I do my best but that would have been about one stride. Granted, I am not always motivated to workout but a thirty-inch walk wouldn't be post-worthy.

As for the window washing – oh yes, deltoids feelin' the burn, and in a good way.

Grit my teeth? Nah. I have just never seen minutes using the inches notation before.

As a side note: I have reached my goal ahead of schedule! Woot. So, I am having a salad for dinner as a reward. I might go crazy and crack open the ice cream. I haven't had any in a few weeks.
