First Frozen Beard Run of 2021

This morning was a longer interval run, and it it was a lot colder than it has been, thus the frozen beard. It tool me a bit to get going this morning but I fought the urge to go back to bed and got out there and got it done.

    Final Training Run Before The Groundhog Marathon

    Things were a bit off, and out of the normal, this morning. It actually started last night as I discovered that the #Endomondo service was apparently down, which meant I couldn’t load my training plan to see what my last run would be. Then this morning the Endomondo app on my phone wouldn’t even load right. Since my smartwatch came with #Strava built-in, and I’ve been syncing data there, I decided to give it a go on my run. It worked out well enough, except the watch and phone apps don’t talk to each other in real-time which meant I had no audio coaching and no real-time stats, including heart rate, pace, etc. Looking at my final stats I knocked the run out with flying…

    Early Tuesday Morning Training Run For Clean Water

    It’s a strange thing comparing your hot midday run to your cool early morning. I would have thought that I was going to knock my pace out of the park this morning but alas no. I have to believe that my lack of rest last night was a major contributor. The interesting thing was seeing my heart rate drop to the low to mid 130s during miles 5 & 6. I can only attribute that to my shower pace during those miles while I was pretty focused on prayer for family, friends, and those needing water in Sierra Leone, like the village of #Ronkorhun. I’m hoping to find those one again that are willing to partner with me to bring clean water to Africa as…

    Short Easy Tuesday Training Run

    The #Endomondo training plan called for a short easy run this morning, which really meant for a much slower pace then I ended up averaging. Of course I started out on the right track but as my running time increased so do my speed. It still felt easy, and my heart rate reflected that. The real take away is that I need to work on controlling my pace. I’m pretty sure I can’t sustain that sort of pace for a full marathon. During my run I was reminded of the friends and family I know with medical needs, and lifted them and their families up in prayer. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Donate to Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr

  1. Coming back to this after-the-fact, I’m realizing that it’s a pretty cool way to do exercise posts. I used to have a better way of doing these myself, and this is a great reminder. You should definitely post the example to the IndieWeb wiki when you get a chance: https://indieweb.org/exercise.
    When you’ve got a chance, take a look at your h-card so that when you end up sending webmentions to others your name, website, and avatar parse and show up correctly. You can test with https://indiewebify.me/
    Glad to have another WordPress IndieWeb site in the world!

    1. Thanks, I’ll look into my `h-card` settings, I think I have some pieces I may have disabled at some point due to other conflicts. Something that is interesting is that your comment has a syndication URL back to your old WordPress.com site. I’m not sure if that’s a result of the JetPack comments as well, so that might be another piece to run down. I may just need to give up on JetPack comments.

  2. I do syndicate copies of some of my articles and notes back to the old .com site, in part as a back up as well as for a small number of people who only follow me there. There is a recent glitch since the update to 5.6 that’s causing some of my other posts to syndicate across as well, but they’re all done as private posts (I think). I should have that issue sorted sometime this week.
    I’ll also note that the microformats mark up in your comments section is a tad off, so that you replies from your comment section are sending webmentions, but when parsed, I’m getting the original post back instead of your comment. I’ve duplicated it on my site, so you can see the “odd one” that came through as well as the duplicate which is what most would expect.
    In my opinion it’s these small and unexpected microformats glitches in the WordPress (Theme) space that are preventing a more massive uptake of the plugins. But once it’s working, being able to do a cross site conversation from post-to-post and comment-section-to comment section is rather nice and elegant!

    1. Yeah, I also made the mistake of not realizing that my reply actually made it back to your site. So I submitted manually my reply URL. Hopefully I can get more of this sorted out and have a bit more elegant solution as well.
