yeah, I thought the same. the last race was my best and 1:25 was the goal. so I'm already satisfied. I was secretly aiming for 1:24:59 for Sunday, but now I'm not in the mood for it. let's see. maybe I will pace a friend for his PR or try to push hard and see if I can withstand with the pace... dunno. I just need something to distract my mind from those terrible images of the last few days

My goal race should have been on Sunday 24th... I trained a lot for it (8 weeks of a hard plan) but: - got cough from my kids last week - my father-in-law died 2 days ago and I was the one injecting him the last morphine shot (he had an esophageal cancer from June) - not slept for 2 nights tried to run this morning at slow pace, but my physical condition is very bad. my mental strength is also weak. stress levels over the top. currently I don't even know if I want to run the race or not. I'm emptied in the body and mind. let's see if something changes between now and Sunday... I don't know why I'm writing here those negative vibes, but you are my community and a way for me to escape from the tough reality of these days.

depends on the type of meal. for example I prefer to run in the morning before eating anything. the rare occasions I ran in the afternoon (eating at 12:30) I ran not before 16/16:30

Snow >> Rain The cold is the same. Actually I feel it more under the rain since you get wet very soon. When the snow is dry you don’t get wet at all and you feel it bouncing on your clothes. Another good vibes sound sculpted in my memories.

Good to know you are feeling good now. If you never ran under the snow, try it. It’s the best experience you can imagine. Especially early morning without any noise and only the sound of your footsteps on the snow. I managed to only run twice in the snow and I always hope to have more occasions.

🏁 2500 Km 🏁 Yearly Goal reached! One month and a half before schedule. It was a good year without any major injury and a lot of PRs. I'm satisfied so far.

Wife: “you have too much shoes and you keep adding a new pair every three months. If you want a new pair you must get rid of an old one” Me: “farewell good shoes, you served me well…😭” These were year 2022 🥲

The best birthday gifts are those handmade by your kids. He spent a good amount of time (his words) to create a cup for the race I ran on Sunday, because I never win a running race and so I don’t have any cup. 🥹 Will miss these days very soon. I know.

I'm not a gym guy, I'm a runner, and it all makes sense for me. (reward is new pair of shoes, the journal is strava, started from few km a weeks...) Hope it helps someone creating their habits... https://x.com/Rainmaker1973/status/1857037545411879095

And they say that the europoooors don't work enough... isn't the leisure cluster too big in the afternoon in the US? 😅 https://x.com/Rainmaker1973/status/1856966528882602242

if you are willing to pay extra for future proofing I would go for the MacStudio + StudioDisplay, but wait until they refresh the current M2 offering. if you can't wait, go for a Mac mini. if you are not moving a lot and work on it everyday, a laptop does not make sense, you will end up using it like a desktop (external display and keyboard)
