Meaningful May: The Crown
Today, King Charles III got crowned King of England. There seems to have been a lot of apathy about this from people I speak to, but I am happy about this momentous occasion. It always feels to me that the Monarchy is a great British tradition, apologies if you feel otherwise, and I am going to screen comments.
I've been looking out for people doing good today; plenty of volunteers helping out this morning at the First Saturday of the Month 5k, and I made it through, despite feeling like I was flagging early on.
I went to Mum's house to watch the coronation, a good chance to see all the good people are doing on the television to help support the new King, as well as just walking around town and seeing the decorations people have put up outside their houses.
A few pictures from my recent walks:

I've found Strava is screwing up, at least when I try to log a walk, and it grossly underestimates my times, so I think a few of my challenges have been calculated wrongly. Anyhow, as well as completing Sports Direct Mara Month, I have logged:
* 40 minutes for Eight Sleep's 100 Challenge and The Le Col Giro Challenge;
* 91m of climbing for Maurten On The Up Challenge;
* 3 hours and 52 minutes for H&M Move #HoweverYouMove Challenge;
* 49km for Mammut Race to Net Zero; and
* 42km for the May Walking Distance Challenge.
I've tried to see if Strava needs updating; apparently it doesn't.
