Be me
Less than 10% health
Gonna use that healing bed
But it's far away, on Medical
Oh right, there's one on Reactor too
Let's go to Reactor then
Get out of the elevator
Almost massacred by a mecha-enemy
Gobackgobackgoback
Guess I'm gonna go to Medical via Research then...

It was a cool Sunday run - actually, temperature-wise it was alright, but it felt like a nice time outside.

First part was helping out my wife being a backmarker for her 5K Garmin plan finale - she ended up with a solid result, happy!

After that it was just following my DSW.

Great to hear it's getting better!

10 hours of playing System Shock (Remake).

Sometimes I feel lost while exploring the Citadel Station, made like a maze to screw with people. You're squishy, resources are finite, so you need to be smart.

Just fought my first "boss fight".

Loving it so far. Hope I finish it.

Enjoyed a long Saturday walk - the weather's amazing, perfect for some shopping.

Now to have lunch and watch Pluribus!

Woke up quite early, went for the usual base in the park. Garmin added 4 extra minutes, I still kept the HR low.

Is it slowly changing? Am I slowly improving?

Probably too early to tell 😅

Did some exercises yesterday that are new to me - I definitely am aware of some muscles that I had no idea existed before 😅

But the running goes on and today the main course was 16 minutes of 10K effort. Felt good, but legs were a bit heavy.

Did some sprints today, but Garmin decided to put it into the Base category - won't complain much, because I'm lacking in that 😅

Still, was nice to obtain ludicrous speed for a fraction of the time - makes me wonder what would my best mile be now...

The more, the better! Even the 450 was pretty decent IMO.

Petzl Actik Core 450 - don't use it for running much, but I take it with me when going outside and some areas are dark. Works like a charm.

Not sure if this model is still made, they might've updated it with more lumens.

Warm morning run, 30 minutes of base effort. Was happy there was no rain, the MSN weather radar worked well (while the BBC was fear-mongering a bit).

Any good weather related sites anyone checks when considering going out? For me it's the BBC/MSN combo.

Started playing System Shock (2023 remake) and I'm enjoying it so far.

It's crazy how the cyberpunk is just oozing from the levels, music, sounds... very impressed with what @nightdivestudios.bsky.social have cooked up.

Looked up original gameplay and man, wouldn't be able to play that 😅

Popcorn? You mean popcorn, right?

Zioman @zioman.bsky.social · 7d

That's a wrap on my long run.

Had a proper breakfast a bit late and I felt it while being outside. Don't worry - haven't barfed, just burped a bit. Should've made that porridge straight after waking up. Lessons learned!

A squirrel cut my path on the Loop Line. Unexpected.

IWGB Game Workers Union @gameworkers.co.uk · 9d

This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity.

We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.

Jason Schreier @jasonschreier.bsky.social · 9d

BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.

Here's the scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I've read "Feet in the Clouds" recently, by Richard Askwith - it's a highly readable look at fell running in the UK, combined with the author's attempts to complete Bob Graham's Round, interviews/biographies of sports legends, and a month-by-month insight into fell running events.

Wouldn't mind if this concept was brought back for nostalgia-chasing reasons ;)

#squadrats updates messages are always so silly, love to see them 😍

Today was supposed to be 30 mins easy, but I've added 5 extra. HR was a bit all over the place, maybe because I was stressed about crossing the roads during the morning traffic? Anyway, job's done!

Finished watching the first four episodes of #physicalasia on #Netflix. It's still a highly watchable show, now based on national teams competing against each other.

Every team member brings something else to the table, so it's great to witness their skills, spirit and pure power.
