We are indeed very proud of you ITG, that's fantastic news! 👏👏👏👏👏

From the high-achieving to the rubbish...my mile run chip time of 10:19.7 last night is only 6 seconds faster than the virtual mile I did last week. I wasn't quite last but very nearly (175/177). I ran-walked it.

I went to bed last night full of plans to parkrun this morning. Now... nah.

Wow! Congratulations ITG! 👏👏👏
Morning all!
My task today is to find some sort of birthday cake in a Spanish supermarket or bakery for Mr Woo’s birthday tomorrow. It would probably be easy in a city but more of a challenge in a small coastal town.
Happy parkrun day!

Fulbright Scholarship?
ITG - does that mean you'll be in Big Bang Theory?
Or spending 3 months in an igloo counting ... whatever there is to count in the Arctic?

Well done on the video and application. It must be pretty special.
(although can a professor be a scholar as well?)

3 months in DC, Um, not an igloo in sight. I would hope a professor is a scholar - the alternative is dead wood.

We have a meeting in Reykjavík on Friday where I will meet the other 2 Icelandic grantees and presumably find out who is in from the other countries.

Hurrah to all our runners, park or otherwise. I will attempt a short plod then get ready for orchestra concert tonight 🏃‍♀️🎻
