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.
