What metrics are important for you when it comes to #running? #HRV, #Sleep quality, #RHR, or something else?
I tend to adjust my RPE during my running sessions based on my sleep and awake HRV. If my HRV is above or below my normal range (which is 105-110 sleep and 83-85 awake) I adjust the intensity of the workout accordingly.
What metrics do you monitor and how do you adjust your workouts according to these metrics?

#FreeSoftwareAdvent day 15: Nextcloud
SyncThing is great for synchronising files, but I also have a self-hosted Nextcloud server. If I only wanted to synchronise files, I'd probably just use SyncThing, but I use Nextcloud for things like CalDav for calendars and CardDav for contacts as well as files.
More recently, I've also started using Nextcloud apps. In particular, I use News for RSS feeds, Notes for simple notes, and RePod for podcasts. The apps accessed through the Nextcloud dashboard on the web have minimal functionality, but it's enough for me. In the case of News and Notes, I also use the official Android clients, which also offer mininal functionality, but again, I don't need any more. For podcasts, I mostly listen using AntennaPod on Android, which I'll talk about tomorrow.
It's worth noting that there are companies that will host Nextcloud for you if you don't want to self-host. At least some of them have a free tier if you don't need a lot of space.

Science’s 2025 Breakthrough of the Year: The unstoppable rise of renewable energy
"In Sept, Chinese President Xi Jinping declared at the U.N. that his country will cut its carbon emissions by as much as 10% in a decade, not by using less energy, but by doubling down on wind and solar.
To many, the continued growth of renewables now seems unstoppable—a prospect that has led Science to name the renewable energy surge its 2025 Breakthrough of the Year."
