Somebody should scrape this post and make like a tracker for it

I’m the antithesis of the entire user base of this site yet I’m 6th most followed somehow
South Dakota
Top is Crazy Horse monument, middle is the Spearfish formation in Wind Cave NP, bottom is Badlands NP.
Anyways, did anything happen while I was gone?
I haven’t actually liked every post, the API for getting if you liked a post or not requires authentication (thanks portalpower). So it’s actually getting an error every time it tries to check if the post is liked.
For a brief moment… we saw the full potential of what life could be
Everyone testing the wasteof iOS app - version 0.2 is out now! But I can’t get on Discord right now, so if you have any feedback or anything send it to me here.
Week 20/52
2. I ran 23 miles this week, it was lower because of my current training plan (doing more intensity and less volume this week)
5. Version 0.2 should be out! Download here if you haven’t yet: https://testflight.apple.com/join/8oJmotXd
I’m going on a trip to South Dakota on Wednesday! Which means I won’t be able to post this next Sunday.
Happy New Year everyone!
I spend too much time on wasteof. But of all the places on the internet, this is the only one that is worth coming back to multiple times a day.
Now, I present my goals for 2024. The goals are all specific and quantifiable, so I can measure if I complete them. Here they are:
Run a 5k in under 20 mins by March, under 18 mins by August, and under 16 mins by November
Run over 1500 miles in total
Run a race every month - except January because I can’t find a single convenient race that month.
Finish school early - I’m on track to finish 1-2 weeks early, so I want to keep, if not improve, that lead
Bring the wasteof iOS app to feature parity with wasteof2 by July, and to parity with wasteof4 by November
Do some other big coding project
Read the book of John, taking it slowly through the book - Goal is 3-4 verses per day, John has 879 verses so it should take up the majority of the year
Become (at least) friends with my crush. “Becoming friends” is defined as getting her phone number. I won’t see her until August, though and I barely know her. And I’m the most awkward person ever. We’ll see.
Buy an iPhone 16 Pro Max and Apple Watch Series 10 when they come out.
Get a driver’s license by August - I need 60 hours of driving practice in total, I have about 10 so far. I haven’t been trying though.
Get a job.
Repost this weekly with progress updates on what I’ve done to keep myself accountable.
2023 was the greatest year of my life. 2024 will be even better. Let’s get it.
