Training in Quarantine – Day 201
Yesterday it rained all day so I spent my normal walking slot doing a FitBit workout.
Today it was pretty cold again.
Training in Quarantine – Day 200
Hit the 200 day mark in exercising while in quarantine. Although, strictly speaking, I’ve passed the 200 point already, just forgot/didn’t bother to log it.
Today’s walk was cold and dark, and absolutely freezing. Went out with a wooly had and gloves and STILL felt the cold.
Training in Quarantine – Day 199
I’ve been rather lax again with logging my walks.
The temperature has really dropped in recent days and it’s been absolutely freezing when doing my afternoon walk, not to mention its getting darker a lot earlier than before.
Training in Quarantine – Day 198
A very short walk due to heavy rain.
In other news, I found my replacement to Revolut — Curve.
Curve seems to be different. It’s not a bank of its own, but lets you put debit/credit cards onto your account and when you use the Curve card, the transaction goes onto the default card you have set on your account. And you can move the transaction from one card to the other (only once per transaction though).
Plus Curve supports FitBit Pay, meaning I can use that instead of Google Pay which has now broken again due to my device being rooted.
Training in Quarantine – Day 197
Another rainy evening, but still made my walk.
Training in Quarantine – Day 196
Evening walk, just under 3km and raining.
Training in Quarantine – Day 195
Slightly different walk today — went to see another prospective house, but didn’t actually go inside, since it wasn’t an actual viewing.
My offer on another house did actually get accepted finally (after a bit of back and forth)
Training in Quarantine – Day 194
Evening walk from yesterday that I forgot to log — short walk, the weather was looking ominous and did actually end up heavily raining.
Also, I got a notification a couple of days ago that Endomondo is being retired at the end of the year.
I knew this was going to happen soon at some point after Underarmor picked it up.
I’m saddened by this as Endomondo has been my go-to for a lot of running things, including helping me train for the Half Marathon. Strava is my alternative and a lot of my colleagues are on that, but I really do not like the interface and only really use it for storing my walk/run tracks.
Training in Quarantine – Day 193
Another evening walk, and this time I went to look at the back of a house that my folks really like post-viewing.
The back has a shared parking space — which, during the day seems okay, but in the evening, when everyone else is there, it looks very tight for space, meaning unless you have backed into the parking space, it’s going to be difficult to come out of the parking unless you reverse out.
