I ran 6km today in my building's gym and it felt liberating. There's no one else running the hours I do so far and there's no time limit on the treadmills. I'm going to try to work my way back to running 10km, and then maybe beyond that.

I've also bought myself a tiny cactus. This is the first living thing I've ever bought and I've placed it on my apartment window sill against the backdrop of highrise buildings. I've not watered it yet after buying it 2 days ago, and I've no idea how much water is needed and how frequently. I just hope it likes the view from my window and that it survives our relationship alive.
