steevc just finished a 5.5km run, that lasted for 34 minutes.
This run helped steevc burn 387.0 calories.
Description from Strava:
I am still not managing to fit in that fourth weekly run, but I am doing some other exercises to try and build some strength. Today I was back on the West Drive hill for my intervals workout.
Today is overcast, but not too cold. Our solar panels may not do so well, but we are now getting paid for feeding into the grid. It took a few weeks to get that sorted out. I need to look at optimising the energy we store in the battery.
The first 'sprint' up the hill was hard work as always, but then I take a while to warm up. The next few were better and Strava reckons I was averaging about 5min/km. I am fairly happy with that. I need to keep doing this workout to improve the pace.
I saw a few of the regulars our there. There are a couple of bearded old guys I think of as the Hairy Hikers and a guy whose collie dog likes to walk between his legs. I just tent to nod or say 'good morning' to people. Some of them are used to seeing this old guy sweating.
I do not know exactly what this prickly-headed plant is, but I keep noticing it when I am up there.
I had a few podcasts on including Late Night Linux and The Life Scientific.
The Hive social platform I use is four years old this week. It came about when the Steemit blockchain had a hostile takeover. The community 'forked' it to create Hive and it keeps getting better. There is an app that takes my writeups from Strava to create posts which can earn for me. The corporate platforms are increasingly intrusive with excess advertising and censorship. Hive offers an alternative. Let me know if you want to try it.
Run free!
