Weekend Fitness Recap - Kayaking & Cycling

Jun 30, 2013 — 1 min read

We had some great times together with family this weekend. I spent some time with my youngest daughter Kayaking and Bike Riding with her and tracked it all using the tools (RunKeeper & LoseIt!) I introduced you to in my previous post.

Friday

We went to our aunt’s house in Newport and did some kayaking. We didn’t do a full day of kayaking but we capped off the evening with 30 minutes of it:

I’ve gone Kayaking before so I wasn’t all that scared to go while wearing Google Glass. I did learn that after dragging out the kayak to the water that I breath very heavy 🙂 I’d love to see how much this changes as I progress, getting winded doing physical activities sucks.

Saturday

We went to the local bike shop and had my son’s 10 speed repaired and I bought a new seat for my mountain bike. To try it out we went bike riding a few times:

Bike riding with my daughter Jessalyn has been a lot of fun. She took a while to learn out to ride her bike but finally just decided to learn how to do it that day. Since then we havent had a chance to go bike riding together, I think my health and fitness efforts are going to get us out there more! I did my tracking with RunKeeper which then posted over to LoseIt with no extra effort on my part.

Automating YouTube Playlists generation with YouTube API

Each week, my wife Jen and I enjoy watching our favorite YouTube channels together. Using a Python script generated by ChatGPT, I automated the process of curating a playlist of unwatched videos. Now, our custom playlist updates every Sunday, making our viewing routine seamless and hassle-free.
