    Rumi's Road to Mastery

    It started days before the dawn of 2024. Myself and my partner-in-crime @Serendipity_Lemon had a long, long talk. With seasonal depression hitting us like a truck, we both knew that heading into the new year, we had to change it up. I decided to dust off the bass guitar I bought as a gift to...

    Took another off-day to rest my foot off the blister. It was pretty painful this morning. Today's Highlight: I finished the Food Safety Level 2 course I was doing to bolster my CV and I passed it with flying colors! Im now fork lift certified - I'm able to grab a fork and lift it to make food...

    Thank you for the support! Blister's well looked after - GF had some blister patches and has been checking in and making me check in on my body and how everything feels so I dont overdo it and overtrain. Today's highlight: I used Mapometer to make myself a route for the first time. I should've...

    Today was a proper rest day as a blister on the ball of my left foot hurt a little too much to try and do a proper walk-out.

    Today's highlight: 5.47 miles (9.23km) for that 90 minute walk - I even broke into a 30sec jog after going down an incline that didnt feel as hard as i thought it would be. I think this might be my introduction into doing running for exercise. I'm just going to be over here nursing blisters in...

    Today's highlight: Took a rest day, physical and mental. As I stay away from the news for my mental health. I found out that Sudan is under fire in a heavy civil war again. A place where people who helped me come out of closet reside and are now displaced. They're safe from what I've been told...

    Today's highlight: Went on the walk with my GF on day 6 - hardest one yet as it was something of a countryside trial with hills, inclines and stairs up and down larger hill sections. Brutal on the quads, but light on the soul - I was elated when I was done. I didn't really stop once, even if I...

    Body still is tight, but that deep-heat cream has worked wonders. Today's highlight: Today's walk was with a friend! They asked to go on a walk like we do off-and-on and im glad i went. Weather was great, sun out, nice cold wind, surely a great way to close off this week before I'm off to see...

    Obliques, lower back and lower abs - tension a 4.5, pain 3 before warming up, lowered when i doubled back, and when i used a muscle soak in the tub - down to tension 2, pain 1.5. Using a heat cream on those muscles and I'm relaxing and staying off my feet the rest of the day. I'm exhausted but...

    Thank you the warm welcome, hive! Today was a struggle at 6am. I did not want to get out of bed, but I'm glad I did. I feel great - tired, but great. Today's highlight: Treating myself like a runner and lowering the amount of layers I wear while I powerwalk was a good idea. Once I got to the...

    On Monday, 27th of March 2023, I went on a date with my new girlfriend and took us rollerskating at the local skate park I've wanted to go to for months. She got it faster than I did - she's a runner and been doing it for a few years. Me - I've tried to exercise on and off for years. I got it...
