2 years ago, I shared my disappointment of season 6 of Black Mirror. I’m a big fan of the series and relish each new season. Season 6 was OK in its own right, but I felt it was a departure from what made Black Mirror great. It lacked something special. Season 6 was great. A roar back to form for the show. If you want to know why, dive in with me (spoilers ahead).
Following the format of my Oxford Half Marathon training series of posts, this is a run-through of an intensive month in a training block for a sub-3 marathon attempt on 27th April 2025. March covered weeks 8 to 13 of a 16-week build.
It feels good to start the year with another year in review post. My third now. Reflecting on goals set 12 months ago is a good way to analyse personal progress and reassess changes in priorities.
I think about this quote a lot. It could be dismissed as being in the bracket of toxic “hustle culture”, after all, there’s comfort in routine and the status quo. Repeating the same thing over and over can feel like it’s working and will continue to work in perpetuity.
