I run, ride bikes, swim in lakes and make video games. Usual Seattle life.

Getting my vegetables covered in dirt the way Nature intended

8 mile run done. Beans simmering on the stove. Time for some puzzle action.

Got my signed copy of The Villager today. Shipped from NY so I suppose that’s how they manage free shipping. Beautiful cover art Everything Will Swallow You is currently in Vegas so I expect it delivered soon and with some winnings @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social Thank you!! #BookSky

Phone didn’t really capture the mist and of course Mr Rainer is tucked behind the bldg but Seattle is just so lovely. Seattle Triathlon was today so that was a nice distraction from my 7. That’s a fun race even if it’s not biking on the highway anymore #runningpunks #running #Seattle

My partner literally walked in the door with this bday present from his aunt

What’s the point of having a Director level role if you can’t do this…

Try this

There’s cat. And then there’s…just more cat. But at least she’s enjoying the World Cup #Torbie #CatsOfBluesky

Ok FINE. THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE HERE #WORLDCUP #Seattle

Christine@christin-3· Jul 6

Not too shabby seat selection.

Christine@christin-3· Jul 3

Took advantage of the perfect weather to do an easy 6 mile hike (did you even hike if the trail isn’t littered w scree, large rocks and roots to trip over?) along an old rail line. #trails #hiking #PNW

Iron Goat trail. Wall to the right of the trail is part of a system of snow bridges built to protect the trains from avalanches

Central Cascades Region. From Iron Goat trail.
No goats though.

I think this is Windy Peak. It’s really hard to tell which ones they are.

You can come to Seattle. We’re a bit hungover from the US AUS match so might still talk to strangers - just pretend it’s south Canada. We do

Christine@christin-3· Jun 18

I get why they don’t want fans to sit on the bleachers to watch practices but this goes all the way around the field. If I want to stand on the sidewalk and peer over the (quite tall) wall to watch, I should be able to 😠 #fifa #worldcup

Neighborhood early Seattle founders home had its 125th birthday block party today. Trying to figure out how to steal this fireplace

Always good therapy. I try with Bella but we don’t get far

Christine@christin-3· May 26

Relatively rainy rhododendron run in remembrance of my fallen comrades baking in the UK. 7 miles done and only 3 minutes late to my first meeting 😁 #runningpunks #running

Christine@christin-3· May 17

Sunday Long Run- set alarm to force me to run in Zone 2 which sucked. Walking from the lake up the hill home was still Z3. At least the miles were traveled 😠 So here’s a nice bridge. #runningpunks #running #Seattle

Picture of the Fremont Bridge in Seattle, built in 1916. Got a fresh paint job a few years ago. Blue with orange trim and a concrete pillar base.

The bridge goes over the Lake Washington Ship Canal which connects Lake Union to Puget Sound

Christine@christin-3· May 10

Seattle is such a weird place. Today’s lake run involved running on the floating bridge. Which now has a train!! We have two floating bridges and you can run across both. Some day I’ll manage a loop but that’s like 50 miles of hills. #runningpunks #running #seattle

Seattle from the I-90 floating bridge on a lovely spring day

Lake Washington. If you zoom way way in you can see 520 which is our other floating bridge

Christine@christin-3· May 3

Goose jail! But yes pretty open.

Christine@christin-3· May 3

Runs over ~6 miles from my house give me two fun options. Run around a beautiful lake, then a flat trail with no water and then either the train home or run up the hill. Guess which one I did today.. #runningpunks #running

Christine@christin-3· Apr 27

Have your people been to Seattle already?

Christine@christin-3· Apr 24

No work will be getting done today

Christine@christin-3· Apr 16

Hill repeats today. 42F and rainy. Pace def reflects cold legs but warmed up eventually Missed the hail so that was good. When spring? Skinny Puppy, Ministry and friends in the ear #runningpunks #running

Christine@christin-3· Apr 11

My first race in years. Had a great time (Orca Running always puts on a great event) Saw an eagle. Made some friends! Weather was a perfect 46 and cloudy. Didn’t beat my 15k 2hr goal by 3 minutes but also 8% hill at the last .25 mile. Ouch. #runningpunks #running #orcarunning #birchbay

Christine@christin-3· Apr 5

WTH. Why is 15k just not a simple 9.3 miles. Test ran 15k today to see how I’ll do next weekend and I was one lousy tenth of a mile off. And no Easter chocolate, either 😖 But the mountain was out so that was nice #running #runningpunks

It’s….could it be…. SPRING?!!! (Ok yes there’s 24 more hours of rain first…)

Christine@christin-3· Mar 26

Intervals today of 5x600m then 5x200m. Loved the 200s. Took the risk of work getting in the way and waited til lunch to have the sunshine On the track so here is a lovely photo from last spring as proof of sun

Photo from one of the bluffs at Seattles Discovery Park. Shows the snow covered Olympic mountains on the other side of Puget Sound ( the Pacific Ocean is on the other side of that).

This is hands down my favorite park and I am so lucky to be able to live in a city that has this view.

Some beautiful clouds tonight #Seattle

I’m not sure how to describe these clouds at dusk. Reminds me of a cauliflower or dahlias
If I were better at science I’d probably know the correct words but there are at least three different kinds of clouds in this picture.

Sick of all this winning
