Starting on a new book, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport and while Iβm reading it the womanβs phone next to me is emitting (presumably) candy crush sound effects and iMessage message noises non-stop. Makes it difficult to concentrate π.
Todayβs sighting while running: Sherlock Homes! Finding all the street namesΒ you hear when youβre a kid is a lot of fun. Baker Street is real! Drury lane is an actual place!
Another good run this morning. 6km Really beautiful park. The main drag The great thing about going for regular long-ish runs like this in the morning is I can eat whatever Iβd like for breakfast.
The restaurant staff are understanding me better too and now bring me the big coffee instead of a small coffee and an inevitable refill.
1. The reason people donβt wait for signals to change before crossing the street in the west is because it takes ages. You quickly adapt. These little reminders on the road are helpful in such situations.
Look Right 2. I lost data for some reason mid-run so got a bit lost on the way back. But I could see Buckingham Palace and run through a fantastic park.
Seeing the palace for the first time really gives you a sense of βwow Kings and Queens really did rule the countryβ.
