Last week I ran my first ever under 1hr 10k(56:20 to be precise). I had run 10k before but my PB was 1:08:00.
Wow! I’m still working my way to doing 5k at any time, and this looks huge to me. Congratulations! I can’t imagine having that kind of cardio endurance right now
I can’t imagine having that kind of cardio endurance right now Even I was thinking the same when I started running. Now, here I am. I think you can also do it.
I started with the target of 5k, once I reached that, my target was to run for 1 hour, then 10k and after that under 1 hr 10k. Now my target is to run a half-marathon.
Thank you for your words of inspiration. I’m proud of my progress to date, and really happy with how running makes me feel. But I still felt like 5k must be an eternity away.
Your words make me feel closer to 5 and even 10 k than I would have thought possible
It’s a public holiday today in South Africa. (Good Friday)
So I came up with a cheeky dad joke
“What holiday is it? Workers day? Freedom day?”
“Good Friday”
“Every Friday is a good Friday”
I got two chuckles
To whoever downvoted this: you suck.
Now you have three.
It’s small because I knew it was coming, but I got the job offer for a promotion! Not many people I can tell.
Holy shit!

Might have fixed my mail server with a bodge. I will see if its still up and running tomorrow.
Finally found out why I couldn’t renew my Let’s Encrypt cert.
Did you know fresh installs of Debian Testing come with firewalld installed and enabled to auto-block all incoming connections? Me neither!
Oh yeah. Docker too. Can’t spawn a docker container and don’t know why? Yeah, you need to make a firewall exception so that the virtual system running on your system can see itself. Yeah.
Restarted my show / podcast yesterday, 1 year after losing my co-host (and best friend) to cancer. Moving forward, without forgetting him.
Some would see this as a big step. It’s one of the hundreds of things that I’ve been doing to move forward…
Thank you for restarting, in spite of grief and bad times. So many good podcasts end abruptly with no explanation and you always wonder what happened. It must be hard to start again. Much respect
Thanks for your message! It wasn’t much a mystery as he stopped joining me in the show when undergoing treatment and people knew. We got a lot of love from the fans.
Good, what is the name of your podcast?
It’s called Go Pyrate. It’s in québécois French.
Obligatory: Fuck cancer!
Also, sorry for your loss.
I was on time for an event that happened before noon.
The bar may be low, but for once I cleared it!
I know that I couldn’t clear that bar, that’s why I never make appointments before noon.
I made a gourd fiddle.
Sounds cool; pictures please!
Thank you; looks like it turned out pretty good!
Not real loud, doesn’t stay in tune very well, but you can play a tune on it.
I wrote a short story that is actually well written and doesn’t make me puke.
Obviously I never finished it and moved on to the next project, so well… glass half empty?

Right on!
a friend invited me to play a boardgame online, called Kingdomino. I really loved it, and since money is tight, I made my own copy of the tiles for in-person play.
They aren’t perfect by any means and it took a fucking age to do them, but it’s a playable version I can bust out with friends and family.
You painted these yourself? They look so good! (I haven’t seen the originals).
Family loves Kingdomino; yours turned out great!
