seems like your priorities are in the right place. your calves will adapt with time.
it's not hard to play catch socially distanced, so actually i'd be down to throw the frisbee around a bit once it's a little nicer out. there was a time when i'd have relished a game of ultimate on a day like this but that time is at least ten years behind me.

why do you think jogging bothers your groin more than sprinting? (or am i just misreading)
Hey yeah good to hear from you. Congrats on the job btw, that was an intersting discussion to read, good to take the safe route as far as cash goes. I went for a run today after a prolonged warmup stretching around the groin area and that seems to have improved it. I used to never warm up for jogging but since that fixed it i assume thats what is impacting it. But thats a very astute observation im surprised i didnt read more into that comparison myself. You are still in the middle east, right? (sorry my memory is shit) any ultimate opportunities over there? Also, nice job to building to such a crazy volume with the runs i gotta get to that point too. Aerobics are supposed to help a lot with schizophrenia brain function.
i'm glad that warming up seems to make a difference. in terms of volume, basically anyone who's got two functioning legs can do IMHO. it just takes time and patience. i'm trying to get up to 60km/week average as we move into spring. one other observation/question: why is your breathing timed step to step on sprints?
actually, i'm back in the area. in silver spring for now but will move into DC in a month or two. no ultimate during the pandemic but i'd think about trying to find some pickup once i'm vaccinated. are you around?

no such thing as too slow on a run like that IMHO.

yesterday
- run 9.60 km in 45:36
didn't want to overdo it after the week-plus layoff. soleuses are apparently the first things to decondition. breathing a little harder than i should have. just ran without thinking. felt good to stretch my legs though. and no ITB tightness this time, that was weird before.

parents got a new dog on friday. her name is happy (for my mom's great aunt, and also short for happy trails). she is a good girl. serious ice storm on friday/saturday = no runs since thursday. like i said the other day, gonna be catch as catch can for a while.
- run 1:1x, 15.x km
not sure exact duration or distance because my watch ran out of batteries about a mile from home. whoops. pace was right at 5:01 the last time i checked (at 14 km).

yesterday: the dreaded wintry mix. snow, sleet, and freezing rain. worst of all precipitation types. no run.
- run 57:37, 11.88 km
ITBs back to normal. 32/0 degrees but it was fine, except my face was pretty cold by the end.

ITBs still quite stiff. weird. pretty slow (5:09 average pace), especially on the uphills on the way back. focused on easy breathing.

christ what a boring game. KC's OL was like cheesecloth and TB outcoached the shit out of them, total annihilation despite mahomes being a god damn throwing savant throwing darts from a full layout and whatnot.
