So ends the first week! Fourteen more to go! Who’s counting?
SLV podcast up and out! Episode 55. Thinking, how can I change this up a little?
Workouts in! Need a new plan and I think I have one: work in the morning, run back, do the workout, shower n get ready, then back at it. Today: 105 pull ups, 210 push ups, 315 squats, 7.13km run in 44 min 33 sec, tried to run a little quicker today (even though I didn’t want to) and got the last two kms done in 5.16 and 5.06. Fast… I don’t like that pace.
About yesterday: building up the youngsters’ lives, but how is my own? Telling stories of my past work experiences, do they even care? Do they understand?
But… first writing assignment done. How did it go? How many things do you have to tell them NOT to use? Wechat, ChatGPT, DeepSeek… or am I leading the witness?
