Week note — week commencing Monday 13 April 2026
What is this?
Every week I look back at the previous seven days and forwards to the next. Work and adjacent things, running and health, culture, home improvements, and personal stuff. Read none, some or all – sharing in case it helps someone else out there.
Running
19.53km last week. Three runs. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. Lots on but not good enough. Same old rule ignored: On a weekday get out early on or you won't get out at all.
This week I'm planning roughly 50km.
Getting out
Football: Chesterfield for Grimsby on Tuesday, a missed chance for Town to pull closer in the table to the Spirerites. Could've equalised in the last minute, didn't, wouldn't have deserved the point tbh.
Date night in Sheffield on Thursday for Idlewild. They were grand.
Added another Open Bench. Spotted a few at Roberts Park that aren't on there yet.
Fell into an internet rabbit hole about people making homes in trees. Ended up watching someone building a proper dwelling suspended 40 feet up.
Weekend was lots of gardening, lots more doorframe stripping and watching Grimsby beat Gillingham 4-1 while I cleaned the kitchen shelves.
Next week
Cambridge on Tuesday for the Town game (three league games left), Carl Cox and the Prodigy in Leeds on Wednesday, Experimentation North, getting the front wall repointed, Town v Swindon, Nate heading back. Relentless.
