Short and sweet on the track. 1500/800/300/300m. #running #summerofspeed

The only thing worth optimizing for is happiness. Loved your rant, @mariofraioli.com!

In case you missed it: In 2022 I ran Berlin and London eight days apart. Berlin for time, London for the bling. Last week, 1,215 people did the same with Boston and London. Seven days, two continents. Slightly unhinged? Yes. That's the appeal.

My cognitive dissonance in regards to LLMs hits hard today. I hate their existence for their resource-wastefulness and hallucination, yet I was able to complete something today way quicker and better with the help of an LLM than without. I don't like this, to be honest.

Crazy well done and crazy scary, even though not surprising.

Still relevant: I am back to regular running! Low volume, high intensity. Something is brewing…

I'm known to travel for 5000m races, but Portsmouth is a tad bit too far. Would love to join, though! #summerofspeed

Delighted to be involved in organising a brand new #running race in Portsmouth: an inclusive 5000m track night on 18 July, with times accepted from 30-mins and below. Being inclusive was at the heart of the event. Only a few spots left so sign-up quickly if you want a place! www.portsmouth5000.com

Tip 💡 You can build a Kagi Lens for shopping that only pulls from specific sources you want to support, like independent stores and small businesses. Put your money where your values are.

Fun fact: For this post, I first had to whip up a scraper to get the results of those marathons into a database. And I validated the scraper by overlapping London '22 and Berlin '22 and making sure that my name showed up. #blogging #running

Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli.

Probably the hardest track workout I've done in my life. 2x(150m/300m150m/300m/150m) all out #running #track

In case you missed it: From a cliffhanger to 6 hours on the bike and giving up coffee for Lent. The monthly mile marker for March with unusual insights.

A little Easter present: here's a code for a lifetime free Starter tier on skysurge.app. First come, first served. 64L7K6TQ

Happy Easter to those who celebrate. #vinyl

That one quality session after a longer stretch of injury issues. Had a good 1:1 workout with my coach. 3x10min in'n'outs. #running #coros

Most posts about #running are about how great a run was, a race, a plan, or an achievement accomplished. I think we need more "I hated it, I bombed, I skipped it, I can't do it, and I failed" posts. :) That would be more the story of my decades of running. :)

I started building a “simple” Bluesky engagement tool in January. Just a Flask app, how hard can it be? 3 months later: OAuth with DPoP, Stripe billing, 550 tests, PostgreSQL multi-tenancy, Sentry, automated backups, and offsite restore runbooks. “Simple” is a lie. 🧵

COROS has just dropped a huge software update for their watches, including a ClimbPro-like feature, a PacePro-like feature, and a ton more handy features. Plus, a small update for the COROS Dura. Dive in for all the hands-on details: www.dcrainmaker.com/2026/03/soft...

My version of "touch grass" amidst all the crap that's going on. Saw the great Brad Mehldau and Christian McBride on stage tonight in Munich. #jazzsky

I built a cycling app that knows nothing about you. No account. No cloud. No tracking. Your ride data never leaves your device. It’s called Sluip, Dutch for the quiet shortcut every local knows. Check it out: joegullo.com/sluip #cycling #privacy #webdev #a11y #fietsen

If I were a runner, I'd be tracking #running in SkySurge. (Narrator: He is, in fact, a runner.) Race reports. Training logs. Gear obsessions. Runners on Bluesky are a passionate bunch. Show up consistently in those conversations? They'll follow you to the finish line. 🏃 → www.skysurge.app

Today (Wednesday, March 4, 2026) at the Amerikahaus: Our Literary Circle will discuss "The New York Trilogy" by Paul Auster at 6 p.m. This trilogy of interconnected detective cases brings a modern, stylized twist to the detective genre. #Munich #booksky www.amerikahaus.de/ausstellunge...

That's some crazy shit.

There were some massive performances in Tokyo. Read our report from the elite races at the 2026 Tokyo Marathon. https://bit.ly/3ZZhOzQ

I have just reactivated my Zwift membership. Things are not pointing in the right direction for my season opener on March 22nd. #crosstraining #running

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript) you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS lyra.horse/x86css/

With the new Bluesky release I can share @ethaniversonpiano.bsky.social's wonderful music directly through Bandcamp. #jazzsky jazzclubferrara.bandcamp.com/album/the-to...

Daylight until6 pm and warm enough for shorts. The only thing to complain about would be my right quad that's been tight and achy for almost three weeks. #running

Yup, pretty much. Sadly, it's the heavy, wet kinda snow.

I didn't have "5cm of fresh snow" on my Bingo card for today. That made the hill reps rather interesting. #runsky #running

Normalize laughing derisively in men's faces when they deserve it.

Week 4: 47 followers (+47% growth rate), 4 sign-ups (+2) on www.skysurge.app and 🎉 3 users on a lifetime Starter plan All this with using the SkySurge App exclusively for engagement. #buildinpublic #growth #patience

TIL:

In case you missed it: My monthly mile marker for January 2026. 20 runs, including one race, 7 hours in the gym, and (surprisingly) no frozen gels.

Tonight I did an e2e test with a fresh Bluesky user, testing the invite codes, the onboarding flow, and all three tiers. The first 5 users on the waiting list will get an invite code that grants lifelong Starter tier. Hurry; 3 people have signed up already -> www.skysurge.app #buildinpublic

Day 4. Half day only because I originally wanted to take a rest day, but now the sun came out in full force, so what you gotta do? #skiing #bluesky

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail
