GitHub

My personal @github repos are now migrated to @gitlab.

As for why I chose to do this?

Training

Cloudy and slightly drizzly run today.

Played some Eurobeat on Spotify and that was fun keeping time to the beat. Annoyingly Spotify removed the running mode which allowed me an auto-playlist of specific BPM tracks. Now I have no idea what music to play to help keep pace. Spotify have added some static playlists giving a range of BPM, but that doesn’t work as well.

Training

c25k training. A relatively warm but not overly-hot today. Week 3 runs. 1.5 min run/1.5 min walk, then 3.0 min run/3.0 min walk, then repeat for 4 run/walk intervals.

Felt worked out, but not overly pushed for some reason….

FitBit and ZenLabs were in disagreement about the distance I ran again — ZenLabs said 4.1 km, FitBit said 3.59

Training

Nice sunny day for running, but my Fitbit Blaze kept losing it’s connected GPS to my phone. My previous watch (Surge) had inbuilt GPS so this didn’t happen.  Possibly the FitBit service was being killed because of Spotify….

Microsoft to Acquire GitHub

Sad news that M$ are to acquire GitHub. I suspect I’ll start getting Windows adverts in my email inbox soon as my office uses GitHub

On the plus side, this LinuxJournal article has proposed some alternatives. GitLab is a good one and even mentioned on some job listings so I guess I’ll move my repos there.

I’ll be removing my GitHub repos…

Training

Final run of the week 1 series. For some reason the app tracked me at just over 1km, but fitbit tracked me at 4km. Probably quirky gps.
