Can we set up a parkrun course in the dark?
It’s 5:31 am and we walk out into the cold, dark night. I have my bright headtorch on, and it’s a marked change from inky black that surrounds us. I press familiar buttons on my watch and start a run.

Birthdays are a day to celebrate that you exist. Agree or disagree? (LOH #293)
It seems that birthdays appear to create very different responses in different people. I, for one, love being celebrated on my birthday. In fact, it feels really important to me that I am with people who

Heard of red light therapy?
I've been learning about and playing with different colours in the light spectrum for a few years now. I have come to understand that there are a lot of benefits to red and infrared light. While I can

I needed help and was brave enough to ask. Here's what happened. [LOH #291]
It was November 2015, and I had just contracted Dengue Fever. I was living on the island of Bali, several thousand kilometres from my family. I knew on that very first night that I had Dengue Fever. My

How did another month go by, just like that, already? It's amazing how fast it goes! This month I was pretty impressed because I managed to power up another 100 HIVE (or stake, as we say). And actually

This morning I went for an easy (ish!) jog for the first time since parkrun last Saturday. My watch offered me a Drill Workout, which consisted of a 10 min warm up, 5x 30 sec cadence drills, 5x acceleration

I was not expecting this much rain...
Gosh, it's wet! Today I only managed to get 6,000 steps because it rained and rained and rained some more. I did sneak in a brief walk this morning. I'd watch the rain radar like a hawk and picked a 20

Where's the balance between too much and not enough?
It took us just under 1 hour 15 to run a lap around the perimeter (ish) of the big chunk of bush near our home. After a very broken night of sleep, I wasn't sure that I should be attempting my longest

Why do I keep buying more books?!
I love books. I was raised by two well-educated humans who were both teachers for a few or a lot of years. They were also both big bookworms. My mother always had a novel on the go, and still does today.

I mucked up my training session but it was still okay!
I'm trying to get better at making messes. At realising that I've made a mistake but not quitting. At recognising that I don't have to get it perfect, I don't have to do it right, I just have to keep trying.
