Finished reading: The Sorcerer’s Daughter by Terry Brooks π The third (and final) book in nice little trilogy.
The post-with-image test took a little more work than I’d hoped. The micro.publish plugin didn’t automatically upload the image and update my image link. I needed to upload separately then copy over the markdown myself (less than ideal, but doable)
Trying a second post, this time it’ll be one that includes a picture. This one was from the Ron Daws race I ran earlier today.
(see above)
I primarily use Windows for my day-to-day, and Obsidian may be useful for my blogging workflow. Giving it a shot with the micro.publish plugin. This is a test, it is only a test (though I’ll keep it here for posterity).
Ran in the Ron Daws 25K today… The rain held off and I ended up with a surprise half marathon PR (plus 2.5 bonus miles). I’m feeling good at this early point on the season. ππ
Jersey Mike’s for lunch today, they’re donating 100% of sales (not just profits) to Special Olympics. Tasty… π

Tonight I finished reading: The Darkling Child by Terry Brooks π I like having some shorter books like this that I can crank through before driving into another big one.
Welcome to Minnesota, Coach Medved! π Niko Medved Named Head Men’s Basketball Coach
Finished reading: Stillness Is the Key by Ryan Holiday π I particularly appreciated the discussion of “Leisure” near the end. It’s a good way of characterizing why I run these days.
Finished reading: The Black Prism by Brent Weeks π yeah, that was a fun one!
Did a late-season fire this afternoon. It was the kids' idea, though they got distracted by Mom’s iPad…my daughter came back around later to do some flame-watching with me. I enjoyed reading some of my new book Relentless Forward Progress π

Great day today. I felt great on my morning run. Work was busy end-to-end, but made good progress on things. Also, my NCAA bracket isn’t busted, so that’s nice.
March Madness has begun! My day 1 upset picks have not panned out…but I have some aggressive picks down the stretch. I still have good upside but the odds seem longer already π€
I got micro.blog bookshelves working after a bit of fumbling around. Now I’ve backfilled the books from this year. My active fiction book is The Black Prism by Brent Weeks π
Got out to Long Lake for some trail running tonight…good group of us out there! A bit slick and muddy in spots, but a wonderful time in the woods.

Every time I see this implementation of a bar graph I shake my head… It’s just wrong in so many ways πΆβπ«οΈ
