- kayaking x ~3.5 hours
so nice. the last 45 mins or so were against the tide and into the wind, pretty heavy going. beautiful day, didn't get sunburned. shoulders gonna be a touch sore tomorrow.

run schedule today. body is like, no don't do it. so i'll go tomorrow. next week is beach anyway so it doesn't matter if schedule gets a little messed up this week.

beach exercise will be tennis, maybe a little running but not going to hold myself to anything, and whatever my family feels like doing w/r/t strength stuff. and maybe kayaking.

- run 10.13 in 50:19
T+DI 168, but turns out clouds and a light breeze make a huge difference. 4:58 average pace, pretty even throughout, and had enough energy to run 4:51 for the last complete km and run the last couple hundred meters at race pace. good stuff

semi-retiring from rugby because of recurrent injuries, taking up a possibly even more violent sport as a replacement...  :ninja:

yeah whenever in my mind i mock you (and other brits) for complaining about temperatures that wouldn't even register as hot in a DC summer, i remind myself that we have A/C and y'all don't.

i give it a few years before home A/C is widespread over there. it uses a shitload of electricity but when the alternative is for it to be 30 degrees inside...yeah. thanks climate change!

saturday

- warm up x 1 km; intervals 400m/100m jogging rest in [1:34, 1:40, 1:39, 1:39, 1:40, 1:37, 1:39, 1:41, 1:40, 1:30]; cool down x 1 km
intervals were at fast tempo pace (i.e. 90-95% of race pace), adjusted a bit for the T+DI. not too challenging. makes a big difference for it to be overcast and under 90/32 degrees, even when it's still so humid.

sunday

- run 18.18 in 1:41:36
T+DI 158, so humid. good light long run, though, tired but not wiped at the end. feet soaked with sweat, was squelching a bit the last 4-5 km.

- stretch

mapmyrun weeks are monday-sunday; i ran 58.8 km in that span. near weekly PR territory, can never remember if i've ever actually hit 60 km in a week before.

- run 11.03 km in 54:55
noice. T+DI 156, snuck in under 5:00 pace with a little kick over the last 500m, accelerating to a peak of 3:41.

- stretch

1138
- run 12.03 km in 1:00:29
T+DI 156, 5:02 pace without dying too much on the climbs in the final 2 km. very steady, good stuff.

yeah and the weather guy was saying on the news last night that because the water up the coast is so much warmer than historically, they're not losing as much power as they go. bad news.

tropical storm isaias is in town, no running today.

not sure why i skipped sunday :-/

UPDATE: rain cleared up around 11 AM so i threw my shoes on and took off before the rain comes back this afternoon.

- run 10.58 km in 51:38
T+DI 141, still extremely humid but temp down 20 degrees F after the heavy rain. consequently, my first sub-50 min 10k since...june? felt so amazing, i actually started laughing to myself at one point. 4:53 average pace and came home under 5:00 so it was pretty well balanced as well.
