I don’t have an Android phone at them moment, but I like the idea of a cross-platform ATM app empire. The dollars will come flowing in!

not sure if things are changing because they are enabling (at some point) profiles for google apps but as of the time that I am writing this you can use https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id as your openid url for google apps users.

Comment on How to “inject” the current mercurial revision into your JS load requests by Mat

Yes, but some proxies (like squid) in their default configuration don’t store elements after the ? for js resources.
That means cache won’t be cleared.

Comment on My marathon experience by Lenni

I ran two half-marathons last year and one this year before I tackled the full one so, yes, I would say it is advisable to do that. If you’re a regular runner a half shouldn’t be all that hard.

For the half-marathon just ran twice a week and increased the distance on Sunday’s long run by two km every week until I ran 19. This was quite unstructured but worked out fine.

For the full I bought this fitness class from Runkeeper: http://runkeeper.com/fitness-class/running-marathon/9

It loads onto your phone and tells you every time what distance you should do that day and also gives you audio cues when an interval starts or stops. If you look around there are also training classes for halfs but as I said above, I didn’t use them last year.

Compared to the half the full marathon training was a lot more disciplined and structured (16 weeks, 4 times a week) but your fitness will skyrocket.

Fantastic! Congratulations on the 4h13m marathon!

I loved reading your post.

I run more than 5km nearly everyday, and I can relate to the general good-feeling that running brings. Maybe I too should start training for a marathon or just a half-marathon first. What training schedules do you recommend/worked well for you?
