    Woooohooo! The 120th run of my current streak was 25km in 2:09:00 with a pace of 5.10 min/km. It's my longest run ever. I wonder, have I deserved a break?

    I'm looking for a SaaS tool that can: - query Airtable for datasets - trigger workflows on certain conditions - perform operations on the data - send output data to other tools, using Zapier (Zapier only responds to triggers but doesn't do queries or data transformations.) Ideas?

    Added a whole bunch of (links to) videos to our program. Players can earn up to 20% of their qualification from evaluating inspirational videos together. That's more fun than just watching. :-)
