Super obscure one this really, less interesting than usual. I like to generate graphs from my exercise stats, like below, but usually looking better than this. I also like to generate a "preview" images for pages if I can, so if I share a link to one of these pages somewhere like I did here1 then we get a nice little preview image. These graph images I make though are not quite the same, so it didn't work. I found a nice thing2 to turn that kind of image to the right kind of image, but it didn't quite work, as I was using nested SVGs. It's legit, but not supported by that thing that changes the image type. So last night I stayed up too late again, face into the screen, changing my graphs to get rid of those. It nearly works! I also had to lose the colour gradients too temporarily as they need to be done differently. But, we have a graph, and it appears on this page, and it will appear if you were to share the link to this post on twitter or facebook or other places.
Nest steps improve the style of the graphs again, then make sure my todo list works in the same way. Then maybe get those coronavirus graphs I've been thinking about for a while. Busy at work first though!

10k: Ten km, about six miles in old money. Sometimes talking about 10,000 steps though, an arbitrary daily step-count target.
20k: Twenty kilometres, just over twelve miles.
