160 x 25 m in 123 min
PS: my first 80 min were in over 60 min, though 😕
120 x 25 m in 92 min
And new lap record: first 80 x 25 m in exactly 60 min. So I finally managed to swim at 2 km/h steadily for one hour.
160 x 25 m in 130 min
PS: lifeguards seem to be having bets on when I would give up.
-2.4 (= -6.3)
… since first weekly measurement on 2011-07-07, i.e. after three weeks. The left side has been cut to protect the guilty numbers. I’ll post the full graph when I climbed down that summit on the left side … oh and … Continue reading

K.O.
Just did a workout that deserves that name. 150 x 25 m in 121 min. I know, I know this may not seem very fast, but it’s already a huge improvement in speed but most importantly in stamina. Admittedly I … Continue reading
First time I got blocked by Wikipedia
Turns out this server and along with it approximately 64k IP addresses are blocked from editing Wikipedia, because apparently some customers of Hetzner – my hoster – run open proxies. I appealed the block and will have to see what … Continue reading

Admirable
The calm reactions of the Norwegians and the thoughtful statements from officials – not jumping to conclusions prematurely – is truly admirable. It shows that despite the gruesome acts committed one does not have to point fingers before knowing enough … Continue reading

– 1.0 (= -3.5)
😛 PS: for my US-American reader(s?), Google says: 3.8 kg ≅ 8.4 lbs 😉 PPS: corrected values. This is since the first “official” measurement on 2011-07-07 (before breakfast, as every Thursday since then). The 3.8 was due to me wrongly … Continue reading

Obama: “deficit reduction”

Lesson (not) learned
Damn, I did it again. Went swimming and now I still have the C25K (day 2, week 2) ahead of me, because I slacked the entire day yesterday (i.e. 12th of July) If I survive the C25K I’ll update this … Continue reading
Polish sauerkraut stew: Kapuśniak
I adapted the recipe here to my needs. The original author does not seem to use sauerkraut, but I only know it with sauerkraut and a Polish colleague confirmed that KapuÅ›niak requires sauerkraut. Alas, here’s the recipe adjusted by me. … Continue reading
Setback
Of course I don’t have really comprehensive numbers, but the only three official numbers for my weight I have so far have the following deltas: 0 kg, -0.9 kg, +1.0 kg … 😥 … despite the steady calorie deficit. I’ll … Continue reading

Udo Kier for the win. The first movie I saw this guy in was “Queen of the Damned”, the one I liked most with him was “Mark of the Devil”. And now this. Have been following the progress some time … Continue reading

Icelandic food for the win :)
Skyr may be used in a traditional Icelandic dish called hræringur (meaning “stirred” or “made by stirring”) which consists of roughly equal amounts of skyr and porridge. It is often mixed with jam or fruit for a dessert, or with … Continue reading

I’m done
Crap, the first week of C25K should not have ended with me going to the swimming pool two hours before finishing the first week. It was a mistake. I’m wasted. Debuted with six laps (for 25 m a lap) in … Continue reading
