Posting this as motivation to get back into training regularly. This was such a good week at a cabin completely off grid with @janine.remix.io. I was so much more fit that year.

Ok. I managed to both break and then “repair” my laptop at xhain tonight. 😂 Good thing it happened somewhere I had tools available.

Yes! 🙌 I had a moment passing a little hole in the wall spot on my way somewhere else and decided to grab a little snack. €3.50 for this little guy. After US inflation it feels too cheap here (not complaining, just recalibrating).

This wasp was trying to make friends with me in Berlin. It wouldn’t leave my finger for minutes and stung me when I tried to get it off. The fingertip felt raw the rest of the day to remind me of what I had rejected. (I had a cinnamon pastry which wasps love.)

It's such a sad admission that most housing is just unaffordable. The ratios should be flipped.

I said goodbye to this beautiful bike yesterday 🥲. It has a new home with a kid who's aiming to take himself to track nationals this season. His prior bike suffered structural damage due to a crash. His mom and I were already talking about it so it felt like it was meant to be when I heard. 💖
