Barcelona Casual Runners Weekly Meetup
We will meet at La Querida, Passeig de Pujades 33,
[https://goo.gl/maps/u5ZpycVXeZb7XyeE9](https://goo.gl/maps/u5ZpycVXeZb7XyeE9)
You can leave your stuff there and we will begin running from outside the bar.
A description of the route is below for your information. Before the run, we take a group photo and after we drink and/or eat at the bar (not mandatory).
We will chat a bit before starting to run. The distance is about 10 kilometers (\~6 miles). However, there are plenty of opportunities to turn back before and sometimes people run a shorter distance. Each person runs at her/his own pace. Most of the time people are talking/chatting so it's honestly a casual run. Mini groups tend to form according to pace.
Please note people run at their own risk and please if you have any medical condition make sure you let someone know and be sensible, run within your abilities.
And don't forget to check our [facebook group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/319006355235925/) for news and activities!
We kick off by running into the Ciutadella Park via the main gate. We then take a right to exit the park and immediately take a left to run alongside the round wall of the zoo (Passeig de Cicumvallacio). We then turn right at Carrer de Ramon Trias Fargas and head towards the beach. We then take a left turn and run along the beach heading northeast. Along the coast, we cross the Passeig Maritim de la Mar Bella for a quick stop at the water fountain and then turn back. The main change on the way back is that we turn right at the tram station along the other wall of the zoo (continuation of Carrer de Wellington) and once we reach the end of the wall, we are back to Passeig Pujades where we end our run.

⚽️ ***FUTEVOLEI*** 🇧🇷
Es una disciplina que nació en Brasil y que hoy en día se ha expandido por todo el mundo, destacando por su dinamismo, técnica y estilo espectacular.
Más allá de eso, el futevóley es creatividad, coordinación y conexión.
Las clases son dinámicas, divertidas y adaptadas para que cualquier persona, incluso sin experiencia, pueda empezar desde cero.
⚽ **Técnicas fundamentales**
Para jugar bien al futevóley, hay varias técnicas básicas que se deben dominar:
• **Control con el pie**: Es la base del juego, permite recibir y dirigir el balón con precisión.
• **Toque de pecho**: Muy importante para amortiguar balones y preparar jugadas.
• **Cabeceo**: Clave tanto en defensa como en ataque, especialmente cerca de la red.
• **Control con muslo**: Ayuda a mantener el balón en juego en situaciones difíciles.
• **Remate** (ataque): Movimientos acrobáticos como la chilena o la bicicleta son característicos del deporte.
• **Colocación**: El segundo toque que prepara el ataque, requiere precisión y visión de juego.
⸻

Tuesday World Championship - Intervals for Intermediate & Advanced
**BCRG Tuesday Rides are back!!**
**Where & When:**
* **Location:** **Mercat de la Vall d'Hebron**
* **Time:** 18:15 (Note: The starting time will be adjusted later with the sunset time)
* **Route:** [https://www.strava.com/routes/3358577240442608674](https://www.strava.com/routes/3358577240442608674)
**What to Expect:** This is a challenging group ride designed for fit and experienced cyclists. We'll ride together as a group, either single-file or double-file depending on traffic conditions. This is an interval training ride, meaning we'll push above threshold on the ascents and take it easy on the descents and flat sections. While we wait a few minutes at key points, this is not a beginner ride. Please be prepared to be dropped if you can't keep up with the pace.
**Is This Ride for Me?** While this ride is open to everyone, we ask that you are comfortable riding in groups, have a road bike, and have done rides of similar distance and elevation before. We welcome all newcomers but everyone is expected to be self-sufficient, therefore please bring not only your bike but also sync the route, bring phone, cash and lights.
**Safety:** Ride leaders will do their best to keep the group together, moving smoothly and safely at all times. We'll stop at red lights and obey traffic rules. Ultimate safety starts and ends with everyone riding responsibly, and everyone will be responsible for their own safety. There's no commercial interest behind this event; it's just a bunch of people sharing a fun day out.
Looking forward to riding with you!

Run/Walk Social
A relaxed, beginner-friendly run/walk social focused on movement, community and feeling better.
This is not a serious running club for elite athletes, nor is it a hardcore bootcamp. The idea is simple: get outside, move your body, meet good people and build healthier habits in a supportive environment.
We’ll cover around 4k together using a structured run/walk format guided by qualified personal trainer Mike Maddox, with regular walk breaks so nobody feels left behind or under pressure.
This group is designed for adults who are comfortable walking for around an hour and want to improve their fitness in a relaxed, social way.
**Perfect for:**
• People getting back into fitness
• Busy professionals and parents
• Expats looking to meet people
• Anyone wanting a healthier routine without intimidation
• People who don’t feel comfortable in traditional fitness spaces
English-speaking, but everyone is welcome 🇬🇧🇪🇸
No pressure. No judgement. Just movement, fresh air and good people.
**Session location:** Poble Nou
**Meeting point:** End of Rambla Poble Nou, as you enter the park on your way to the beach
**Rules / Schedule:**
We stay together as a group. We begin with a warm-up walk before moving into light jogging intervals with regular walking breaks, depending on the level of the group. There is no set pace and no competition. We move, walk, jog and chat together.
After the session, we’ll cool down, stretch, and maybe grab a coffee nearby for anyone who wants to stay and socialise.
A short health questionnaire must be completed before attending.

Drunken Philosophy: Are you really who you think you are? What is the "self"?
I have been studying the question of "self" online with Prof. Ellie Anderson and so I thought a prompt on the "self" might be interesting. Full confession: I had Claude create this prompt and I like it, so here goes:
Imagine a thought experiment that merges two classic puzzles:
> You undergo a procedure, performed neuron by neuron, in which every biological component of your brain is replaced with a functionally identical synthetic substitute. At each step, your behavior, memories, and personality remain unchanged. When the last neuron is swapped, is the consciousness experiencing the world still you? And — more pressingly — was there ever a continuous "you" to begin with?
### Questions to Wrestle With
* If consciousness is purely physical, does the *gradual* nature of the replacement matter, or is it equivalent to being destroyed and rebuilt?
* Could there be a "self" without continuity of experience — even moment to moment, while you sleep?
On a more practical level, consider the simpler case first: **hemispherectomy** patients — people who have had an entire cerebral hemisphere surgically removed — often retain a strong sense of personal identity and continuity. This suggests "you" are not rigidly tied to specific physical material. But does that vindicate the synthetic neuron case, or merely show that identity is more *flexible* than we thought — not that it can survive *complete* substrate replacement?
I used Claude so I could get this out today and let everyone have some time to consider it. Hope to see you at the Oracle. Sorry about the location change two weeks ago. That's what I get for trusting local weather predictions!

Book summary:
On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.
