I noticed that the rear wheel no longer seemed to be true so I took it to a bike shop. They confirmed that some of the bike spokes were about to fail. Due to this technical issue I left my bike with them for maintenance. Now I find myself without a bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finding myself without a bike means that when a group meets for a ride at 07:00 for a ride I can&#8217;t join, because I don&#8217;t have a bike. The advantage I had though, is that I could still get up early, and go for a solo run, and time it to end at the same time as the others got back from their ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I decided to do the run recommended by Runna. Six 300s. Six times 300m at 5:30 following by runs at 06:15 before recovery, and then running for another kilometre and a half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I ran a route that I estimated would get me back to the caf\u00e9 right when they arrived, and I succeeded perfectly. By 0800 I was at the caf\u00e9 and within three minutes I arrived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I came up with the plan yesterday, when I was on my afternoon walk before the book discussion. I decided that I would wake early, run, and meet the group. Eventually I questioned whether I would actually get up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we think linearly then not having a bike would exclude me from joining. Lateral thinking allowed me to join. The experience was good. I will repeat it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute<\/span><\/span>Yesterday I dropped off my bike for a service.
