Wow, Andor S2E8
Signs of spring
Finished reading: Revenge of the Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell is a fun exploration of what makes things spread (ideas, behaviours, viruses). You know what you’re in for with Gladwell and this is a good follow up to The Tipping Point (25 years later!) 📚
Looking forward to the new season of Foundation!
A new feature in HealthFit shows that I’ve been pushing the training too hard. A better balance would be 80% in low aerobic. Although I feel okay, I’ll fit in more recovery runs and rides
🏃♂️ Recovery run
🚴 Cruising through Watopia this morning
🇨🇦 Great piece by Paul Wells: Solomon’s vote
The Liberals won. Mark Carney returns as prime minister. He’ll get to name another cabinet, meet Parliament for the first time, govern if he can. But the result forecloses cheap gloating in ways I find satisfying. Canada is a country that wishes things were easy. Maybe they aren’t meant to be easy.
Monarch Park. 📍
🏃♂️ Track Tuesday: 3x 1 mile + 3x 800m
Riverdale Collegiate Institute. 📍
🏊♂️ Mixed intervals
🇨🇦 Voted! Only took a few minutes
🏃♂️ Much better weather today than yesterday for a run
🍕 Pizza night
Finished reading: A Conjuring of Light by V.E. Schwab is fun and a worthy book in a great series 📚
🚴 Despite the high winds, cold temperatures, and occasional rain, I was glad to get outside for today’s ride
🚴 Planning for the first outdoor bike ride of the season tomorrow. So, wandering the house trying to find all the gear. Note to self for next year: put it all together in a box for storage
George is enjoying this spring weather
🏃♂️ I don’t have a bike at the in-law’s. So out for another run
🏃♂️ Pool is closed today, so swapped in a long run
Finished reading: Orbital by Samantha Harvey is enthralling. Nothing much happens and yet so much about humanity, science, and our place in the universe is explored 📚
