The Post Cold Run
Reading Time: 2 minutesSome people will see that it’s running, and that they are still recovering and think "I’m not running in that. I did and my "short run" project was changed to a full run. I had planned to run two to three kilometres but ran five instead. The Apple watch wasn’t happy, not…

Thoughts on a Rainy Day
Reading Time: 2 minutesToday it’s raining, which may imply that I will not go out for a walk, or a run, and definitely not a bike ride. It also implies that I am wearing the Apple watch for no reason today. My step count will be low, as will my calories burned count, and finally…

Reading Time: 2 minutesFor less than a week I have been using Threads heavily. In that time I have commented on plenty of posts without senseing any hostility or unpleasantness so I thought that Threads may be troll free. I realise that this is not the case after posting that I would not get the…

A Windy Walk in Geneva
Reading Time: < 1 minuteToday I went to Geneva. I considered going by car, and then either going to do the Fort L’écluse via ferrata or dropping by decathlon. In the end I took the train and walked around Geneva. I went to Geneva to pick up the things for the Vernier run on Friday…

To drive or Travel by Train
Reading Time: 2 minutesTomorrow I will be heading to Gruyère. I saw that if I take the train it will take two hours but if I take the car it will take one hour. I am currently toying with the idea of suggesting that I pick up some people in Nyon and others in Fourmi,…

Wake Up and Run Before the Sunrise in Nyon
Reading Time: 3 minutesThis morning I got up at 4am to go for a run with strangers in Nyon. The meeting time was 05:10 and the run/jog/walk began at 05:30. Before the run Activ Fitness gave us a warm up workout that I followed half-heartedly. I had already walked 3km so my body was warm.…
