Did some jogging. No records. This quarantine is a rollercoaster. Some really good days & some stinkers. Feeling weird & sick today so just happy to get something done.
This post feels low energy. Probably because it is low energy.

Quarantine: Day ?
Set a rowing record, a couple of 2020 juggling records, & a 2020 squatting record.

Resenting the Gamified Life
I resent writing this blog every day.
But that's because I'm a recovering degenerate.
it could be the keystone of this writing hobby/profession.
& so it has gone from being pure fun to a mixture of fun & resistance,
the resistance that is always with most of us.
Anyway, this is easy.
I need to exercise to be able to write.
So we're building good habits here.
Or trying to, at least.
Set a rowing record today, left-handed juggling, speed skater reps (22/40).
& my favorite, I set more records today than I did yesterday.

Two Days is a Streak
Today I celebrate two days in a row of doing this, posting a personal record.
Just being proactive enough to do something that takes willpower. THAT is something I haven't had consistently for a long time.
#2: Single, alt mountain climbers (32).
#3: 2020 Rowing Single & Total records. (4m 18; 10 min 14 seconds total.)
#4 (oops): Wanted to set a record in "free" writing, also known as "automatic writing." Failed to attempt.
A bunch of 2020 juggling records. First time really juggling in a while. All-time record 60 minutes flat.
Started 100 pushup streak.
Total of 4 streaks, and 8 separate records.

Personal Bests in a Time of Coronavirus
April 9, 2020
I set two records today.
Modest af records.
2020 longest continuous row (machine):
4minutes, 11 seconds.
💪
Also:
Alternate side Mountain Climbers, continuous:
30 reps at once
and total.
Nothing special. But this quarantine has been going on for 3+ weeks and it took me that long to "get with the program," which is to say -- a lot of people are doing a lot of self-improvement in this time, and I have been lacking.
Hopefully, this is the start of a new trend/streak.
Cheers.
