What do "Marcothon" and "Big Data" have in common? Just as more data has been created in the last three years than all of the data that came before it, I have produced more laundry in the last 3 weeks than I have in all the laundry that came before (and my washing machine is broken).
Between working, traveling, and what turned out to be some form of a holiday party
every day this week, not to mention the actual running , I have spent a
fair amount scanning screens for 'essential data.' A quick check of
the temperature, perhaps.
When is my the train (or plane -- I was too hassled to take a picture at the airport this week. Imagine a monitored with word 'cancelled' repeated over several lines)?
Am I going to get home before the rain?
Who is else is running?
And as if I was actually training for something, I spend way too much time to check to see how far, how fast, and when I have run.
The only thing that matters? Another 3 done.
