Life-Sparring Podcast - Round 5: Show Notes

See this content in the original post

Synopsis:

Shadowboxing rounds are solo episodes, where Life-Sparring host Fabian Gruber shares “what’s On and Poppin” in his life, what current books provide “Food for Thought” and what else is going on. No interviews, just a bit of solo rambling.

February was short and rather uneventful, mainly due to a lazy Chinese New Year break and work demanding a bit extra bandwidth.

The winter in Hong Kong ended rather abruptly and muggy spring weather made it rather unlikely that Fabian still will try to improve on his rater embarrassing record for the Translantau 50k trail race.

At least gyms are back open in Hong Kong and the first personal training sessions take their toll.

There is not much that’s “On and Poppin’” in February, at least not in terms of new tools and gadgets. Time to appreciate some old favorites and their new use cases.

Food for Thought is all gloom and doom this time, with Dan Carlin’s “The End is Always Near”.
