Do me a favor, put your phone down and go tell your partner, kids or whoever needs to hear it that you love them. Don't wait till later. Do it now. Call them. Hug them. Life can be over in a literal heartbeat 💓.

Still relevant: January: trying not to break before Tokyo. April through June: not running at all. October: 43 seconds off my 10 km PR. The foot still bothers me some weeks. I don't pay attention anymore. Year in review: messy, but somehow it worked.

Yearly reminder to use RSS – Manu

This struck a chord (pun intended), because we're currently discussing Quality Objectives (think KPI) for one of our QM processes, and it's delicate, to say the least.
I failed at guitar twice due to goals, pressure, homework.
Then I became a musician in 20 min. with a ukulele, thanks to intention, daily play, and fun.
Then again, using synths.
Same dream. Different approach.
Why SMART goals are broken & what works instead:

In 2024 I have read 12 books. For 2025 I set the goal to read 25 books. I finished the year with 23 ... a failure. Not really, because I still almost doubled my book count from the year before. Here's to a 2026 with at least 26 books read. Are you committed?

I am genuinely worried for #LA2028. I would be worried for the FIFA World Cup 2026 as well, but I have long stopped giving a f*ck for that show.
Athletics Weekly writes about the countries voluntarily not sending teams to this week's World Athletics Cross Country Championships in Tallahassee. And I've heard about at least five countries running into visa troubles.

First day back at the work computer. On the plus side, I did remember my password. On the negative side, I keep confusing the Ctrl- and Cmd-Key (yes, at work it's Windows, at home it's Mac, and I am using the the same shared keyboard in my home office).

Full disclosure, the automatic sharing of blog posts was entirely vibe coded with Claude, and I guess we will need another iteration to get the links showing up as links correctly.

Can recommend, Amsterdam is a great city and the marathon course pretty fast (and scenic!). Ran my PR there in 2024.
