    Glad I’m not the only one planning runs around cafés/mincers.

    Hope your kid is ok

    Went to Chocolatine mid way through a long run yesterday and nabbed one of theirs. 10/10 for me. Pastry was literally perfect, no granulated bullshit on the lid and a humungous amount of filling that was spot on. £2 seemed absolutely worth it. Will head back.

    These Aldi rum ones are my faves by quite some margin at the moment. Tried a Gail’s one but part of me dies paying £2.50+ per pie. There’s no actual rum in these, it’s just flavourings, so probably not the most legit filling.

    Will try adding a dram of rum to one tomorrow and heating in the oven.

    Going back to the HRV thing, the Garmin reddit indicates most users saw a drop in October/November without illness or lifestyle change which indicates Garmin did something with their algorithm. Whoop will have their own one. I use a Polar but they should all be measuring the same thing. Polar only measures it during sleep, too.

    Finally managed to do a sub 18 today - 17:52.

    It’s almost like hill repeats, diet and sleep make you faster…

    Let’s see how it is when I’m 6kg heavier after Christmas.

    The drones over New Jersey thing is hilarious. Go on Reddit UFOs and just have a browse.

    Lots of people hearing the Pentagon say “it’s not US military or one of our adversaries and we don’t believe they pose a threat” and immediately jumping to the conclusion that it’s non-human intelligence. Completely glossing over that the statement doesn’t mention private sector.

    I’m guessing it’s being used as a demonstration to certain countries that are practicing heavy drone warfare right now. Stir up a bit of a buzz and get the “ITS ALIENS” people all riled-up online - message delivered.

    Either that or they’ve lost something (GLOMAR) again.

    Oh shit they’re in on it? Thanks for the heads up.

    HRV is individual and more trend data than high score based. If 38 is baseline for you, then lower or higher might indicate fatigue or illness or a beer.

    Mine PLUMMETS if I drink any alcohol or am fighting off yet another child illness.

    When you say your resting HR is 57, is that as soon as you wake up or just throughout the day? That’s pretty in-range for a healthy someone of that age.

    Haha, it’s about 9km to VP from Manor Park/Wanstead and then 8 loops and back again.

    It’s not actually that bad, as the HM races at the park are 7 loops and a little extra, so this just felt like one of those with the journey tagged on.

    It’s just the default food encasement system in the UK. They look good tho.
