much warmer today but still nice. i think this is too fast and i'm better off running with gf for pure aerobic runs.

lunchtime-ish, went without gf so this was much faster than it's been, 5:04/km is right back to my old set pace.

18 sept
- run 28:20, 5.0 km
today
- kayak x 4.5-5 miles
- run 27:29, 5.0 km
every day this week
- swimming/bodysurfing
- tennis
i'm at the beach in north carolina with my parents, my brother, his fiance, my gf, and my parents' respective best friends. it's great. super active, weather is perfect, surf has been excellent. it's really nice to be here in september, when it's still hot but not brutal and everything is even less crowded than usual (the beach we go to is a little out of the way so never THAT crowded).

Easy run 8K @ 46:59 (5:52 pace)
More or less same with last week. I thought i was slow but when i finished i realized i just went too easy, i wasn't tired at all.
Need to start actively pushing a bit more, time is running out, only 30 days left for the half marathon.
you gotta start bumping the distances up. 21 km is reeeeally different from 8 km.
another suggestion: start practicing eating a little bit during longer runs.

tried to run this morning but achilles felt "thick" (no better word comes to mind) after a few hundred meters. last night felt absolutely normal. i think morning running is just not a thing for me. this is irritating.

just to stretch the legs, pleased with myself for making it out the door at all. work is a bit nuts this week because i'm going on vacation next week. plus i'm re-starting guitar lessons tonight.
my leg *still* has a rash on it.

thursday
- run ~5 km
gf whacked the everloving shit out of her elbow partway through. ended up taking her to urgent care. x-rays negative but they said there might be a hairline fracture they missed. not our week! sheesh.
spent the weekend on martha's vineyard at my cousin's wedding (and, mostly, driving to and from there. it's a long haul).
