For the last year I did majority of my runs in a small area in Hanoi. I would not have thought it is possible to run long distances in such a tight spot. I think running in this way made me stronger and more creative. The ideas of projects I have not thought about before came to my mind. Figuring out reasons behind GPS inaccuracies, using OSM maps to identify good running places and wondering if I can make running safer on the busy Hanoi streets. I would not have worked on any of them had it not been for my experience of living here. I also did two ultra stage races which made me realize how little it matters where you go running. Running in tight loops is a challenge for maintaining a fresh perspective. I tried recording my thoughts while running, collecting location data and even earning crypto from sharing noise pollution in my area. I think my next project would be writing an algorithm to explore OSM map in a way I would explore it. I want to create a model that creates new and original routes. Exploring with data: is it not the most exciting thing you can do?
