Counting down the minutes until quitting time and going over packing lists in my head in preparation for Ragnar in Richmond this weekend.
Have fun. You and @MattSpeller are way more active than I am. Then again I'm slowly de-evolving into a chicken mcnugget.
I dunno, I think I just practice a lot of poor judgement. I acquired a micro-tear in my left calf during the first week of March and have been slowly nursing that back to health. I wasn't able to run more than 2 miles until earlier this week. I should be good to do 25k right? Ignoring reason hasn't failed me before. Or at the very least it hasn't killed me yet.
Plus I have a can of Heady Topper waiting for me at camp.
Fully realize the scope of my pudginess. I tried to run the other day. I got to 3 mins 41 seconds until I had to stop. I'm basically dead already.
There's a trick to getting good at running. Run. Then run again. I didn't really make it a habit until I started doing it with a local group. Group runs are so much more enjoyable. I hate running alone. Anything more than 4 miles alone is torture.
Also this free app is pretty nifty: http://www.smashrun.com
And running from zombies while gathering supplies and fortifying your camp is kinda cool too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sixtostart.zombies5k&hl=en
I'm going to start the Zombies! Run 5K training next week. Just need to load my phone up with music to use with it. I have access to two tracks that I can run on, indoors and out, so I shouldn't have any excuse.
For the love of Jeff go outside and run, on roads, or in the dirt. Running circles around tracks will suck out your soul. Unless you're soul-less, then by all means whirl yourself endlessly around the upper rings of hell and enjoy your torture.
Got to start somewhere. The roads around here aren't the friendliest for pedestrians and I don't, at the moment, have ready access to hiking trails or the like.
That being said I find running mind-numbingly boring. Even when I was doing a mile a morning around my small town it was a chore to turn my brain off.
Fair enough, some running is definitely better than no running. The zombie app definitely helps with keeping you engaged in what you're doing. I occasionally still use it with iheart radio app when I'm out and about. Most of the time here lately I just like to zone out, clear my mind, and try to forcefully deprive myself of oxygen though.
So your go-to solution is a plastic bag over your head?
No, that is entirely too efficient.

I have no idea if it is a true etiquette thing or not, but I have always felt that one should always greet a person in their local time of day if possible.
May come from years of speaking across a 14-15 hour timezone difference.

Wondering why I can't get the Citrix Receiver to auto sign on!

I do the opposite so I can remind people how awesome I am for being where they aren't.

I managed to get into a marching protest in Prishtina yesterday morning and ended up surrounded by police in riot gear last night.

@scottalanmiller Sounds like a good night! Was it intentional? :')

Nope, neither was intentional. I was looking for a restaurant in the Prishtina square when they marched through.
In Skopje we were walking to the new Macedonia Square where the Art Bridge is and the riot police were heading over the bridge with us. They had parked their paddy wagon or whatever at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and were headed south. Their other transport vehicle came up by the river and we had to wait for it, too.

Wondered if it was a case of "Ah, Mr. SAM. Your reputation proceeds you..."

Traffic in front of our hotel has just stopped. Cops with assault rifles out blocking traffic. People honking at them anyway.
