• 🏃‍♂️ Picking up the running again. Physio didn’t explicitly tell me I can’t run, so I did 35.2km / 2,239m for the week. Maybe a little too much vert, but hey that’s what I do. Had amazing winter weather - blue skies and snow-capped mountains. Because of the snow I’m staying in the lower elevations though I’m familiar enough with our network of trails that I can still get my vert quota while keeping it interesting.

  • 🩼 Had an ultrasound scan on my knee. They didn’t find much in the way of the expected Baker’s Cist, but noted some small happenings around the front part of my knee which gives me the occasional sharp pain on climbs. Scans have gone to the doc for review and then the physio who I see this week. Pain has subsided anyway as I continue my strengthening exercises so I’m confident that I’ll be just progressing the exercises and continue my running.

  • 💻 I added a “comments” section to posts on this website (see bottom of this post). I stumbled across David’s tool Komments. I love the simplicity of it and it is very easy to manage. At the moment I am only adding ability to comment to weeknotes, quarterly reviews and my bigger running recaps as I feel they would potentially be the places where people may want to ask questions or connect on. All my posts are cross-posted to Mastodon so there is that option to converse as well.

  • 💻 Made a Postroll page. Now that Junited has ended this will be a nice place to dump worthy readings I stumble across.

  • 🏢 At work, finished green belt six sigma training. Now just have to do the online exams. Once I’ve done the green belt exam I can do a green belt project and submit data and slides to get proper certification. I have a project in the pipeline which I will likely use for this as I am wrapping up a couple now. Although they were process improvement projects, the application of six sigma was a bit light. Will be good to tighten it up a bit in this next one.

  • 📚 Finished reading Revenge by James Patterson. ⭐⭐⭐

Perfect winter running conditions:
