Where Did the Time Go?
I've just come back to this site after three years of silence. If you've been here before, hello again. If not, welcome — it's mostly running, honestly told, not expert coaching.
Three years away
A pricey renewal notice from GoDaddy made me look at what I was paying for. ChatGPT and Cursor helped me move from hosted WordPress to Cloudflare. The site is simpler, cheaper, and still home to a few app pages I care about.
I can't believe my last article was May 2023. Apart from those app updates, the blog sat idle. I've been meaning to return — it just didn't happen.
Life has been lifing. I've been busy. AI grabbed my interest around the same time and I went down a few rabbit holes. I published a couple of apps. Running carried on and changed shape a bit — more on that soon.
My plan
I'm going to start writing again. It organises my thoughts. I may wander into other topics too; we'll see.
First up I'll reread my old articles. Some need updating, prettying, and I think differently about a few things now.
Then and now
When I started this site I'd just stopped working in the City of London. I wondered if I could monetise it; it would keep me busy. Running was something I was into. The City wasn't.
Years on, that's not the ambition. I've skimmed some old posts — they're okay. The technical side of running isn't my specialism, but I'm a runner, and experience is what I can offer.
I've been running hard since I was last here. I've found a renewed love for it — just in a different way.
TLDR — site moved off WordPress; I'm writing again; running still central.
More soon.
