NOTE THE TIME CHANGE TO 9AM Hi All, Come and join us for social running and a coffee! We meet at the main gate of Vystaviste - tram stop Vystaviste Holesovice. We will run in Stromovka. Usually we run around 50mins and it is up to everyone how many kilometres. We welcome all levels of runner. We can all run together or, if there is more of us, we can split into groups and at the end of the run we all meet close to the starting point to go for a coffee to a nice local coffee place (where they also sell cakes and great chocolate). If the weather is great, we can also just sit in one of the outside coffee placces in Stromovka and enjoy the sun. This is where we meet: http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/7/3/1/600_447930513.jpeg

PLEASE NOTE: There is a fee 150 CZK for this event => See more details below. \*\*\*\*\* Hello Discoverers! Let’s do our 10 000 steps a day and socialize with friendly people in the beautiful **Natural Park Draháň – Troja** in the north of Prague. It is a place for the recreation of tens of thousands of local residents as well as the home of protected flora and fauna and the site of the early Slavic fortress settlement “Zámka”. Sadly, this unique natural and cultural landscape just 6 km from Prague Castle is doomed by the city planners to disappear forever under a trans-european six-lane motorway. You may wonder, is it really necessary? Will it improve the traffic congestion in Prague? Are there cheaper, more effective and less environmentally damaging alternatives? On this walk, I will try to answer these questions while showing you around my favourite places. DIFFICULTY: Easy to Medium 8km/5 miles mostly on unpaved trails. Some 130 meters/400 ft of vertical gain. MEETING POINT We will meet at **10:00 at Kobylisy metro C station**. More exactly at the **bus number 152** stop which is in front of the “Katastralni Urad” (Land Registry Office). Exit the metro station to “Katastralni urad”. **Google Map**: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/zZXqUVj1fJ7vPRK96](https://maps.app.goo.gl/zZXqUVj1fJ7vPRK96) If you can not find us call me at +420 739 370 212. We should complete the route by 14:00. The end point will be near “Krakov” bus stop in Bohnice. As always, I’m going to book a restaurant for a well-deserved lunch after the walk. BRING WITH YOU * Comfortable walking shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. * An umbrella or rain coat if rain is expected * Water & snack This is a dog friendly event. \*\*\*\*\* PRICE: 150 CZK (Children < 16 free) Includes the planning, guiding and the meetup fee You can pay online on DP website here: [https://www.discoveringprague.cz/event/saturday-walk-drahan-may-30-2026/](https://www.discoveringprague.cz/event/saturday-walk-drahan-may-30-2026/) or just show up and pay in **cash** or by QR code.

This group is for anyone who writes - for any reason. Have a thesis or article you need to write? Trying to finish a novel or an academic paper? This group is for you. We are currently meeting in-person at Locus Workspace. If you have any questions, contact Sonya Lano here or on Facebook or Messenger (https://www.facebook.com/sonya.lano). We start at 9:00, introduce ourselves, and share a few words about what we're working on and what we hope to accomplish during the session. At the end of the session, you can give us a brief recap of how it went. We'll break at noon. The afternoon session starts at 2:00 pm. You're welcome to join both sessions or just one. Please come as close to 9:00 as you can if you come for the morning session. If you come to the afternoon session, we are usually back by about a quarter to 2:00.

At the group's first meetup, we will informally discuss whether self-improvement has an end or is a never-ending process. To inspire the discussion, I selected two short blog posts with opposing perspectives. The [first post](https://markmanson.net/self-improvement#:~:text=There%27s%20a%20paradox%20with,the%20need%20to%20improve%20yourself.) is by Mark Manson, the author of *The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F#ck*. He argues that: “*There’s a paradox with self-improvement (...): the ultimate goal of all self-improvement is to reach the point where you no longer feel the need to improve yourself (…). The whole goal of improving your productivity is to reach the point where you never have to think about how to be more productive. The whole point of pursuing happiness is to reach the point where one no longer has to think about being happy. (…)* *The only way to truly achieve one’s potential, to become fully fulfilled, or to become “self-actualized” (…), is to, at some point, stop trying to be all of those things.”* The [second post](https://maartenvandoorn.medium.com/self-improvement-doesnt-have-an-end-it-is-the-end-6bbb3247ff6f) is by Maarten van Doorn, who wrote it as a reply to Mark Manson’s post. Van Doorn argues that self-improvement doesn’t have an end because it is an end in itself: *“‘The paradox of self-improvement’, as Mark calls it, is not that self-improvement, despite appearances, has as its ultimate goal something that’s ‘in your head’. No, the true paradox of self-improvement is that it’s perhaps the only kind of improvement that is not done for the sake of whatever it is being improved, but for its own sake.* *Self-improvement has intrinsic value and, in contrast to productivity, becoming better and exercising skills are essential components of what makes life worth living (…)* *Personal growth shouldn’t be thought of as a band-aid to fix something. That’s not what it’s for. What it’s for, is to prevent you from settling for eternal boredom — and your life from going by unnoticed*.” What do you think? **Reading the posts beforehand is optional** — Just in case you want to read them, here are the links: * ‘[What is self-improvement’ by Mark Manson](https://markmanson.net/self-improvement#:~:text=There%27s%20a%20paradox%20with,the%20need%20to%20improve%20yourself.). * ‘[Self-improvement doesn’t have an end, it is the end’ by Maarten van Doorn](https://maartenvandoorn.medium.com/self-improvement-doesnt-have-an-end-it-is-the-end-6bbb3247ff6f) We will also have time to talk about ourselves and brainstorm ideas for next meetups. See you soon. Ángel
