last night fell asleep: ~12 AM
wakeup = 8 AM
bw = 151 lb.
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure

aches = left shoulder slightly, right hip flexor slightly
injuries = 2 toenails black
quad stretches throughout the day = yes - alot
standing desk (when on computer): no
feel = good
water = alot
mosquito bites: 0



Food

- some olive oil kettle chips from my gift basket
- banana
- some sweet green tea



Session: Afternoon

3 PM
- la fitness: 2 courts, people all over the place
- we were supposed to go to those beautiful outdoor courts @ FAU but he didn't bring his "outdoor shoes" so we hit up LA fitness.. he might dunk again sunday before he goes home, if so, i think we'll hit up those outdoor courts.

dunk session with steve celi:
- didn't expect to get up as good as i did, got up decent.. definitely ~32" if the rim was 10'
- probably ~20 dunk attempts, all L-SLRVJ
- run ups / jumps were pretty smooth
- had a few decent dunk attempts where i threw it down pretty hard.. but, threw it down with ~32" so only ~8" of my hand over, nothing amazing.
- he crushed a few and had some good misses, but he wasn't having the greatest session.. people everywhere probably didn't help.

treadmill run: 3 mi @ 9 mph
- lame, didn't enjoy it.. stopped at 3 mi
- should have run outside.. F treadmills



i guess bottom line is, i had fun.. dunking is fun.. might start doing it more often, like, every other day often.. hah. dno.. been wanting to jump more and now since my turkey trot 5k is done, all i have are 1-mile races and a 5k later on in December.. getting consistent with jumping/dunking would be cool.

only thing i foresee is a higher chance of "injury/aches" (feet/hip flexor) etc.

right hip flexor definitely taxed hard from the jumps.. more so than sprints/running.

dude you're killing it - another trophy!! damn!

hah thanks man!! ya feels good to win, even tho it's still amateur numbers.

my 5k strategy is such a wreck.. it's amazing that I even finish.. who the hell goes out and PR's their first mile then runs 2 more consecutive miles? not many people.. so eventually I need to change my strategy OR get faster.. I still prefer the latter. I'd rather just get faster and hang with the top dudes for longer.

Also, I have a few 1-mile races coming up -> no 5k's.. so my aggressive mindset may actually benefit me more over that distance (with faster people) but I doubt it.. i've still never run a sub-5 minute mile (on my gps watch), so I can't expect to hang with 4:4x's.. but who knows.

i'm definitely curious.

I might do a 1-mile race on:
- 12/3 (prize money)
- 12/7
- 12/14

pc!!

Awesome trophy and terrific progress!!!

thanks so much man!!

my dog's got in a fight over the plantain chips.. one of them didn't want it (tastes nasty).. so I told the other dog to come over and eat it, then the little psycho comes running over and attacks him over it. hah.

will journal later but, quick recap:

tamarac turkey trot: 7th overall (was 30+ last year), 1st for 30-34 (same as last year), 18:29 (20:07 last year)

2,100+ runners.

was humid af.. and slippery/wet from rain.. didn't push myself like I had planned.. really pussed out in the third mile, which is a shame. whatever...

had a decent enough time going into the 2 miles (~11:25) that I could have gotten sub 18 but just wimped out

trophy & gift basket:





in some good news.. i basically beat every1 who beat me last year.. and who beat me like 4 races ago.

progress.

PRE-RACE DAY = REST DAY!!

drank less water today.. well i drank less before my last race too.. it helps on a rest day.. otherwise I have to pee it all out like crazy, especially at night when i'm trying to sleep and early in the morning.. so drank even less than last time. so far so good. Watermelon in the morning fixes everything -> the water in the watermelon is enough hydration it seems.

feel pretty good right now.. quad soreness clearing up a bit. If i manage to get some sleep tonight, should feel really good tomorrow morning. Since this 5k is so close by, i'll run there like I did last year.

tmw's goal for 5k race = massive PR over 2 miles.. 3rd mile cooldown (most likely).. which would still end up being a 5k PR.
