About Me

Hi, I’m Lyx and I live in the BeiJing. Thanks for visiting my site.

I’m a marathon runner with a personal best of 2:50. I consider myself a philosopher of marathon training. I believe in the principle of minimum effective dose and practice long-termism.

I once tried becoming a Les Mills instructor, but gave it up because the training approach conflicted with endurance running. I admit this attempt failed. But I’m still proud of it, because I recognized my limitations and followed my heart to make choices.

On the other side, I’m a programmer. I write something, but master nothing. I hope to build products the market loves, solve real problems, and get paid for it.

Since 2018, I’ve been struggling with severe depression, so I left the tech companies and have been at home. It’s been 8 years since I last held a programming job. But I still like to call myself a programmer, cause this title means focus, diligence, and curiosity.

I’d love to hear your feedback on this site and my work.

See you on the road.
