Life under lockdown

Level 4 lockdown in New Zealand will end a minute before midnight on Monday April 27, 2020. As I write this we have been in lockdown for nearly four weeks. It’s been okay for me, and I think also for my family, but I certainly acknowledge we have fewer challenges than many.

In lockdown I’ve been more regular with my fitness training, perhaps owing to the lack of variety in training that is possible under lockdown. Alternatively it may be a result of additional hours freed up by the absence of travel time to-and-from my workplace. In either case, I do feel grateful for my current situation and general health.

When we go out for our ‘bubble walk’ at the end of the work day, William has taken to the carrier that is far too large for him. He doesn’t seem like the stroller so much anymore. He’s growing up fast, and it is nice to spend more time with him.
