    Living up to my ethos and paying for the things I care about. Which is to say, I'm giving Kagi a whirl.

    After 3 years of trying and failing, I found a way that works for me to run consistently this year. This run marks my goal for 2024, 100 runs. Woo!

    • 🦁 We went to watch the new Lion King movie in Sakuragicho. The movie was really good and the animation looked so real. Hard to believe it was all CGI (except the whole animals speaking English bit). We saw it in Sakuragicho because the theater I praised so much for having subtitled movies with their original audio track when we saw Moana 2 only had dub versions of the Lion King. Either way, it was good to see that area at night. Makes me want to stay like we used to around this time of year during covid.
    • πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ I ran twice this week, one time with Yumi! It was our first run together and it was a lot of fun. This is the first time I've run with someone where I'm the more experienced runner as well. We did a loop along the river with a mix of running and walking (mostly running). The wind was so strong and cold, but if you were in the sun it was warm enough.

    • πŸ‹ In addition to running twice I also did a 3 15-minute supersets with the kettlebell. Lifting heavy this repeatedly is very much a different kind of hard – you can't just slow down and you really feel the burn. Zero plans to become Schwarzenegger, but a bit of functional strength can't hurt.
    • πŸ’³ The Yokohama subway (and growing number of other lines) have started to accept tappable credit cards as payment, in addition to IC cards (suica/passmo). They're doing this because it's easier for tourists, but I also imagine because it's less proprietary. With credit cards you don't run into issues with a lack of semi-conductors making you ration your IC cards, there's no extra hardware required for managing balances etc..., and because they're not loadable, you don't need to manage cash balances, so feels less risky. I road the subway using my credit card and it just worked. Perhaps more importantly, I can earn points on my credit card when I do this, whereas charging my suica gives me zero points.
