Did my third None to Run run today, finishing up week 1 in the program πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ. OMG on Saturday I have to run for 1 minute instead of 30 seconds! Anyways, so far so good.

I loved it. It’s a great thought piece about the importance of initial conditions. It’s a love letter to New Yourk City.

Since much of it takes place in the 1960s, it’s also a sad indictment of how little we have progressed away from racism.

Today I am grateful for online Pilates classes πŸ˜…. I am looking forward to picking up my 🐟 share from our local Fishery CSA this afternoon New Hampshire Community Seafood | Eat Fresher Fish. Support Our Local Fishing Community.

Woo hoo! Just did my first β€œrun” in the None to Run plan. It’s mostly walking with a few 30 second runs, but that felt PERFECT after 40 years of not running. I’m looking forward to the next one, which is about as much as you can ask from a workout plan. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

After not running for 35 years, I’d like to start. I bought good shoes and am planning to do None To Runβ„’ - Gradual Running Plan and App for Beginner Runners. Any advice? I’m in good physical shape (for 60), lots of swimming and strength training. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

I fell off the “no Facebook in August ” wagon this morning. Ouch! But now I’m back on the wagon, more determined than ever. Then I spent another hour trying to figure out Mailmate keybindings and I finally got my custom keybindings working! Probably took me 4 hours total. Ugh

Time for a change to make more space in the office so I put this bookcase out on the front lawn. It was gone by the next morning. Freecycle recycle #mbaug πŸ“·

For Micro Monday, I recommend @gannonnordberg as their photos are beautiful and they also post useful #edu information 🏫
