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).

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.
