Week 16

Foot is healing.

Happened

  • My foot is doing so much better now. This week, I stopped biking and started taking the metro to all places. Less exercise, one could say, but no, it made me walk much more. Walking from Bijlmer to the city center and back is not really doable, but the metro never stops in front of your destination, so it’s a good way to get your steps in and train your foot.
  • If this upward progress stays, I'll start doing short runs the week after the coming week. On Sunday I ran 20 meters to the metro on barefoot shoes and I feel fine, so I have good hopes.
  • I had two birthdays of friends this week, which I really enjoyed.
  • At work I went into a bit of a rabbit hole regarding PHPStan and resolving dynamic code with generic types, but maybe that’s a topic for another blogpost.
  • Another blogpost I wanted to write this week (but not going to anymore): I dreamed I was driving in a car, that just stopped to exist when I had to stop on the highway for some reason. Then, I couldn’t get enough speed (because I can’t run with my foot) to get my hypothetical car back, and therefore I was kind of stuck at the side of the highway. The police actually arrested me for this, as they didn’t really buy my story about my hypothetical car. I then later wrote a blogpost about it all, but I couldn’t get it to post, because I noticed I was dreaming. I then proceeded to write a blogpost about hypothetical blogposts just after I woke up, but I couldn’t post that either, as I turned out to be still dreaming. At some point I managed to actually wake up and write just enough words in my draft file for this post to actually deliver this description to you here. I promise you I am okay.
