We were taking part in the boycott of #loblaw / #loblaws for May. Is it continuing, or did it shift to Metro?

@pch …but they have built up an audience… 🤦🏻

If they move, others will follow.

@MarvinFreeman I absolutely marvel at some people’s abilities to run like this.

Finished "Outland", Dennis E. Taylor's first novel and the first of the two books that make up the Quantum Earth series.

A light and fun read. Don't take it too seriously and enjoy the ride. 4/5 stars.

@mlawton Pretty much everything @DennisETaylor puts out is worth reading. Don’t get @sebastianhahn and I started about the Bobiverse series! 🤣

Oh goodie. Campfire season is back for the neighbours. Never you mind open fires in your backyard in Toronto is illegal. I guess we're back to not being able to leave the bedroom windows open at night.

@jameskoole That’s… excessive. Maybe email your city councillor and see what they say? Dropping 911 on your neighbours is a bit much.

@Hansonthebike That's a very busy crossing some times. I don't actually know what the solution for improved flow there would be that would be heritage-approvable. 🤔

WTL,
@WTL@mastodon.social avatar

@Hansonthebike I was thinking something with ramps because I've seen some folks struggle with their ebikes to get across the locks.

Wet, wet, wet. At one point during the run I wanted to jump over a branch lying across the path in the woods. Unfortunately, the ground was so soggy, my left foot which was pushing me off the ground just slipped back. My right foot got tangled up in the branch. A second later I found myself lying flat on the floor. Yuck! Apart from that it was a good run. After Trump‘s conviction in NY yesterday, I skipped my audiobook and took a dive into my MSNBC podcasts.

@recollir @sebastianhahn That's the problem isn't it? I swear, I lift my feet! 🤣

@sebastianhahn The Maddow podcast was “just enough" for me this morning. Hopefully you won't be too bruised up from the tumble. Usually, I recommend letting your stunt double handle those. 🤣

WTL,
@WTL@mastodon.social avatar

@sebastianhahn I don't think you'd like that. Just let the stunt double do the falls for you. 🤣

Friday:
130 seconds of plank
11 minutes of yoga for runners
20 minutes of HIIT
30 minutes of strength training
23.5 km of #cycling (11°C with a 12 km/hr wind)

Pretty good first workout morning back in civilization, although it was alarmingly sunny out. 🤣

@s1m0n4 @bomkatt There's a lot of it here. I'd offer some of ours, but I'd probably be axe-murdered by local residents.

@mlawton True, but it's too hot then. Early morning idea temperature wise for me.

WTL,
@WTL@mastodon.social avatar

@mlawton Usually, the lowest temperature here is around 5am, so witching hour indeed. Maybe frame it as having a eight hour nap before going out for the run? 🤣

#workoutoftheday #running

I knew that running the morning after circuit training wasn't such a good idea.

This week brought a lot more NEET than usual. As a result my training involved fewer sessions too, though I didn't skip circuit training yesterday evening.

So I set out for a long run, because I didn't run on Tuesday and I won't have time on Sunday either, but I couldn't even reach 8 km before my legs and my mind gave up.

@bomkatt @s1m0n4 Agreed. I’m in the process of giving myself that very lecture, opting for cycling instead of a run.

Well, I looked at LinkedIn for 3 minutes to get some industry updates, and now I’m facing an overwhelming sense of somehow not doing enough to keep myself employed

@bomkatt Acknowledgment of expertise would be nice. <sighs in digital>

My turn for a rough workout. It was really more of a glorified warm up, because my head brain was every which way after a day in the office

5 rounds
10 overhead squats
50 jumping jacks

The squats were supposed to be weighted, but I had to drop to a broom handle. My shoulders just weren’t up for that.

I suppose I need to give myself credit for classifying 50 squats as “not much of a workout.”

WTL,
@WTL@mastodon.social avatar

@bomkatt I stand ready to explain. 🤣

Lost another toenail last night. Down to 8.

@m750 @JustBrogrammer @atoponce The main this is that weird things happen to our feet from running.
