Took a couple of rest days b/c I could feel my hamstring & feared possible injury. After a consideration of time spent in each HR zone over previous runs, it was clear that I was overdoing the pace, even with 4/1 min run/walk intervals. I ~could~ do that pace, but I ~should~ dial it back a bit & build fitness. Anaerobic all the time wasn’t helping.
Cold tonight, just below freezing and 25 mph (40 kph) winds gusting to 50 mph (80.5 kph).

A chart of my run. It shows a track of which I did many laps. Distance 7.53 km of which I burned 597 cal. My time (not pictured) was 1:03:02, which is an average pace of 8:22/km.
The lanes of the track curve to the right towards the backstretch. There is a fence with woods beyond. Inside the track is a grass practice field, the warm weather grasses a dormant tan color.
From the same spot at the end. It’s now pitch black outside. The high school building can be seen, sprawling out in every direction, lit by streetlights. Above, possibly, you might see the constellation Orion.

An old Hindu legend tells of a king/warlord challenging Shiva (Vishnu, even Buddha in some versions) doubting his power. Shiva snaps his fingers, or in some versions merely gazes, and the defiant man becomes a woman. The newly-minted woman has no choice but to live as woman, and does so to the fullest, marrying above her class, becoming a mother and grandmother. War breaks out, her grandchildren are all killed. She wails over their bodies in the wreckage. In the blink of an eye, he's bac…

"Bitcoin is crashing hard, reaching historic lows of well below the $70,000 mark. At the time of writing, the token is hovering just above $63,000, levels we haven’t seen since October 2024."
"According to Coindesk, the average cost to mine one Bitcoin is currently around $87,000 — far higher than its current going rate, making it an extremely unprofitable proposition."

Scientists just found a game-changing way to check on dolphin health without stressing them out.
Researchers at Flinders University are using drones with thermal cameras to measure dolphin body temperature and breathing rates from above. No more invasive capture methods or stressful probes—just non-invasive monitoring that keeps dolphins safe while giving conservationists the data they need.

View a large rock tower behind another lower mountain peak near a pass with a small chapel (good for appreciating the scale). The mountain nearest to the pass has visible tunnel openings at its base above the talus fields. These are remnants of the frontline from world war I. Massive cumulus clouds are forming in the background, above them clear blue sky. The entire scene is bathed in warm late afternoon light of October. All the grass patches have turned into a rich coffee brown.

"The reasons for Starmer’s exceptional servility are well understood. He has pinned disproportionate hopes for the revival of Britain’s floundering economy on trade with the US, an activity which is now conducted purely at Trump’s caprice.
"Above all, his “coalition of the willing” striving to prolong the Ukraine war depends on US military, intelligence and logistical support for the foreseeable future."
