Not expecting to hit a sub 8 minute mile, especially with my health issues, but if it happens, I'll be elated!

Google Calendar: I found an event in my calendar for this Thursday, without a title or description, but a specific time (12:20-13:05). It is my private calendar, so I know I created it. So I am probably going to miss something this Thursday, but I don't know what.
What I found interesting is that when I asked Gemini it was able to tell me when I *created* that event, a piece of metadata that is not visible in the Google Calendar UX in any way.
