I just went for my run. And wanted to talk about it with some of my new social connections here on the threadiverse. I used to run a lot. Like a lot a lot. 100 miles a week sometimes. I was a long distance specialist trying to qualify for Olympic marathon trials. Injuries and old age have ended that chapter of my life and I often find myself needing to remind myself to be proud of my ~10mi/w workload because that’s more than a lot of people my age in my profession do.

Today I just ran around my neighborhood. There’s a nice park nearby but I don’t get to go to it very often because the street I have to run down to get there can be pretty scary. I think access to green spaces is something that often goes neglected in community planning in my country

  • I’ll second this. I’d love to see posts about the green spaces you run through, but for a discussion more focused on the running itself, that would be better suited elsewhere.
