- run 7.07 km in 33:35
a bit drier today but still warm. kept this short but ended up improvising a hillier-than-usual course including a quite steep hill toward the end.

that's wild. i meant meeting jaco btw. and noted re: your algeria connection. guess i jumped to a conclusion because i saw somewhere that your dad had a french dad and an algerian mother. i have a new-ish buddy up here who's family were pied noir and fled back to europe before he was born. guess it was just on the brain.

holy shit adarq i knew your dad was a piano player but that's a pretty amazing (and sad) connection. the other piano player on continuum is...herbie hancock! cool.
wonder if you ever met him as a baby/toddler. also, i was today years old when i learned that you're half algerian/pied noir.

- warm up; run @~3:43 pace x 2000m; 400m; 800m w/100m walking rest; cool down
set out to try to run two miles under 12:00. tropical storm delta is upon us and so T+DI was back over 150 (dew point 84!). won't completely blame the humidity for my bailing after 2k but it did NOT help. managed to accumulate two miles' worth of distance in under 12:00 total but as uneven intervals.

running, hiking, and biking, are all very knee-intensive exercises! especially if you're not used to doing them, it makes sense that your knees would be protesting after doing each one three days in a row.

- run 10.02 km in 44:26
nearly 90-second "PR" over what i did a week ago, haha. beautiful day. i kicked in the last 2 km, could have gone under 45 even without running as hard as i did (4:14, 4:07). but getting 10k in 44:21 is good. first time running 10k under 4:30 pace. breathing was even and easy until the final mile.

goal is sub-19 now, so pace target is ~3:47. but also a fail just because the intervals all felt like shit. if a single 3:47 km is a struggle then sub-19 is not yet in the cards. then again maybe this shouldn't be surprising considering i'd run the previous day. and, as you said, the humidity.
also PR is 19:42 TYVM.

- warm up; 1 km race pace x 3 in [3:49, 3:47, 3:54] w/3 mins walking rest; cool down
total distance 8.15 km. this was a fail. could tell it was gonna be from the moment i took off for the first interval. legs heavy, breathing hard. struggle bus. proud of myself for not bailing altogether, i guess, and at least i got one in at target. humidity back up, maybe that had something to do with it.

- run 10.01 km in 46:49
apart from the last hill, pretty relaxed with easy negative split. 4:41 average pace. T+DI ~120, a little warmer than the last few days but still very nice. also there were approximately eight zillion bugs, it's like every gnat egg in the area hatched at once. arms, shirt, face, hair: all looked like a windshield circa 25 years ago.

Hiked on Friday for 3hrs
Ran 10km on Saturday 1.25 hrs
And Sunday did some house work... and for some reason my left knee got from sore to really sore....
