Perfect zone2 run after the yesterday’s hard workout.

14 km @ 4:59/km

I love when nature experiments with the genes.
Have you ever seen a white poppy?

Last year I saw a single white flower. Now in the same spot there are a dozen of plants with at least one white poppy and this one with only white poppies.

Feeling like Mendel 😅

@vm & team, I cannot use the app anymore. If I open it, it says to update to latest version. I’ve updates to 4.0.0 but no luck. If I press on the “update app” button the App Store says the app is not available in my region… 😩

Hard workout for this week:
10x600 @ 3:53/km (rec 200)

At the 5th rep negative thoughts kicked in and so almost wanted to give up. Happy with how I managed to stay focused till the end. It was not an easy one.

My son (10yo) just played his first tournament match. 🎾🎾
He usually play rodeo formula at 4 games.
And he won 6-3 6-4. More than 2 hours match. He’s wasted but super happy!! 🤩🤩

@vm can we have a special “dragon ball” badge for when it’s over 9000? 😅

I call It discipline, but Simon Sinek (my favourite storyteller) has a better explanation: consistency.
I've done it with running in the last 12 years, I'm doing it with strength training in the last 3 months and I'm committed to do it for years to come.

This is the coldest point of our entire galaxy (and maybe the entire universe).
It is at the INFN (National Institute of Nuclear Physics) in Italy.
It’s just 6 millikevin (-273.144 C)

They grow up too fast.

“Yesterday” they were listening to kids music, today my older (9yo) asked Siri to play: https://music.apple.com/it/album/meravigliosa/1788534049?i=1788534053&l=en-GB

The younger (6yo) started dancing and over enjoying it. 😱

I’m not ready for the day (tomorrow) they will wear headphones all day…

P.s the music is in Italian, but you can enjoy the rap rhythm anyway.
I'm would like to invest ~1200€ on my home gym setup. I already have bench and dumbbells.
Any feedback or suggestions? is it enough/too much for a beginner? is the price correct?

Rack for bench and squat: 399€
Short Barbell (188 cm): 199€
EZ barbell: 89€
Change plates 2x(0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5) Kg: 199€
Bumper 2x5 Kg: 58€
Bumper 2x10 Kg: 88€
Bumper 2x15 Kg: 128€

Bonus: any European friend who bought from atletica.de?
Made some Easter eggs (not software) with the boys.

13 km in strong wind (30/35 knots) this morning.
What should have been a zone2, transformed to a high zone3. It’s a pleasure running against the wind.

TIL: if you want to fine tune the luminosity or volume of your Mac, try holding Opt + Shift before changing them. it will give you a scale of 64 instead of 16.
