Reading Time: 2 minutesNormally I walk from village to village. My walks can take me through four to six villages per walk. I walk from village to village in part because I live in the middle of a landscape where walking from village to village is easy. I had doubts about today’s run because I…

Running Around in Loops
Reading Time: 2 minutesOver the last week or two I decided to run and to swim. These are two sports that are easy to do if you have access either to a pool, or the right shoes. Swimming was in 14°c water for 17 and ten minutes. The first time my hands and feet were…

Garmin Instinct Solar Run, With A Mask, And A Walk.
Reading Time: 2 minutesI tracked the run and walk with the Garmin Instinct Solar. It is very easy to use while wearing gloves. You can stop the activity, change sport, start the activity, do the second sport, and then stop the tracking of the second sport, without taking off your gloves. Now that we’re in…
