very lucky distance in china. T+DI 138, ran in a shirt comfortably for the first time in months. accidentally did a very steep and long hill in the middle.

did no running at all last week. friends in town, nasty weather, wanted to play guitar instead. will recover discipline at some point, probably when the weather sucks less, but have decided not to beat myself up about it for now.

a propos of the weather, it was nice out today, still humid but not as hot as it's been. T+DI 154.

- run 1:30:46, 16.15 km
felt wonderful, very relaxed.

EDIT: also, got my third tattoo yesterday, a cross-section of the bedrock underneath my parents' house, on the inside of my left bicep. looks great, i'm very happy with it.

NBC's coverage really has been inconsistent. like, i know timing is an issue and i know there are no crowds, but the 100m is the marquee event of the whole summer olympics and the video they posted of it online is the most perfunctory shit i've ever seen. shame.

this, meanwhile, rules so incredible hard:

- tempo: 3 km easy, 3 km in 12:44 [4:08, 4:22, 4:14], 3 km easy
first time pushing above easy pace in months. pretty hot and humid but not crazy, T+DI 155. didn't go too hard, felt good.

- run 52:59, 10.44 km
same route as the other day, but elevation gain given as 99m vs 88m. mmkay. also HR average given as 171, which just doesn't seem possible despite the much quicker pace, because my breathing was normal. so perhaps the watch was having a fit today, who knows. much nicer day today, T+DI 140. still a ways away from ideal but it was easy to cruise along at 5:05.

air quality is really bad right now because of the west coast wildfires. we're supposed to get some storms this afternoon, which should clear things up. but not gonna run through this and risk developing a cough or hurting my lungs or whatever.

props to him, overcoming two straight years of playoff humiliation to earn the hell of his first championship and finals MVP. shades of jordan stat stuffing and showing crazy talent for a few years while getting bullied out of the playoffs by better teams before finally breaking through.

T+DI 154, pretty high but not crazy like the last few runs. felt much easier as well, kicked the last few hundred meters at sub-4:00 pace just because.

- stretch

still so damn humid that i'm drenched in sweat immediately after showering, even with the a/c on.

heat advisory out today, although it's the same T+DI as monday and actually feels okay in the shade, especially if there's a breeze. but walking back from the grocery store i got a sudden cramp in a weird spot right the top of my left calf, like maybe in the plantaris? popliteus? made my left shin feel weird right away as well. didn't last, but that plus severe thunderstorm watch the rest of this afternoon means no run.

- run 45:50, 8.59 km
T+DI 163 but felt worse than sunday and monday. possibly because i did a much more urban route, toward downtown instead of away and through the parks. also i ran like 20s/km faster, by accident.

i'm finding that if i concentrate on keeping pace and breathing relaxed, i can make it work. high heat and humidity make my heart rate rise much more rapidly and come down more slowly, so keeping it from spiking is the priority.

- run 41:17, 8.01 km
T+DI 173, highest ever since i started recording it. just checked and i think the previous high was 170, last summer when i ran 18 km at 5:39 pace and got heat exhaustion. much easier run today despite being 30s/km faster.

ETA: the humidity pace adjuster chart i found last year suggests this should have been equivalent to ~4:45 pace in perfect conditions. that seems impossibly quick, my easy runs in the winter were at best 8-10s slower than that. shouldn't put too much stock in such charts, i suppose.
