Corona Update

So, I haven’t been writing many blogs lately. I think with this global pandemic going on, I’ve not felt the urge to. Like, there are more important things I can be doing like looking after my family and maintaining my good mental health. For the most part, I’ve been doing the last part. I’ve kept myself busy, maintained SOME form of exercise and tried to limit my media consumption. I thought today to just give y’all an update as to where I’m at.

Hi, my name is James … most people call me Jim though and I have MANY addictions. Whether they’re healthy ones are not is up to Doctors who get paid a lot more than me. I don’t feel they are that bad, they’re not drugs or alcohol or anything but nice ones like coffee, Under Armour workout clothing, notebooks and a country. That country is the good old US of A. Ok, so coffee could be harmful depending on how much I consume, my notebooks addiction means I COULD be buried under them all, but my god, what a burial that would be … give me a pen and I would be happy and the under armour clothing one isn’t too bad. The thought of working out is there, obviously, because I buy the clothing (to be fair, I do actually work out … maybe not as often or hard as maybe I should but I do go for runs and eventually will go back to the gym to do weight/resistance workouts … but knowing me I’ll catch a cold whilst there, and right now, I DON’T want that).

The world is facing an going through a climate emergency. Some people may say that in the next decade, if not enough is done, we will have caused irreparable damage to the climate of our only planet. Some might say it’s already too late. 

Run Jimmy RUN!!

Last week I managed to do a personal record of 3 posts. I said on the Sunday that this might not always be the case, and this week proves that. However, officer, the reason for this was due to Netflix dropping 2 shows on me. The first was Altered Carbon season 2. I have still (at the time of writing) not finished it but HOLY BALLS its good. I enjoyed Joel Kinnamon in the title role, but Anthony Mackie has done well. I know he is a good actor but wow. I did feel a bit bummed when I heard Joel wasn’t returning, but the premise of the show is VERY clever from a production point. Actors can’t be demanding with money as they can easily be replaced, and it will fit into the story for the character to have a different sleeve. ANYWAYS, this blog isn’t about that show, although, I could probably do a post about it … but will have to see. Going back to my shows, the second show Netflix dropped on me was F1: Drive to Survive. I quite enjoy watching F1 and this behind the scenes show is good. But again, this blog post is about running … good luck to anyone reading this before the “read more” section. I draw you in with tv shows and BOOM … it’s a running post.
