on a good note.. been coding ALOT. I've definitely been out of my "burnout stage" the last 2 months or so. Feels good..

one of my projects has been re-designing this forum in my own code.. actually making lots of progress with that. I've been ingesting all of the data from this forum into the new forum. I've got pretty much everything ingested. I also have it so that I can ingest multiple times per day, to get the new threads/posts etc. The stuff that's going to take more time is the web-app ui components. My goal right now is to make it a bare minimal, completely usable version of the existing forum. Then, I can start building out more cool stuff, like tools to get us data/analytics on our workouts, calculators, templates, different types of editors (raw, markdown, bbcode, ..), different types of posts, different styles of logging workouts (so that they are easier to sift through, track, analyze) etc.

Once I get the bare minimum forum completed, i'll open it up for people to test it out.. and if everything seems good, we could switch over.

No timeline yet but, been working on this every day for a few weeks now.. and things are coming along.

Finally, i'm also coupling it with some other ideas I have.. I always wanted this site to have some "educational features" (fitness + education/science + blog stuff). So i've been working on that also.. it's basically a separate app but i've just merged them together.

so needless to say, happy about that.

pc!!

rested today.. lots of programming/reading. got some stuff working nice on my kindle paperwhite, so i can study while I walk, in the day light, if I want.. few hours of studying while walking = win.

a couple of my wrecked toenails look alien-like. I don't even know how to clip them. The snd toe especially.. it's like a normal toenail with a big mass of toenail on top of it. wtf. might need to see a pro eventually about it.

tmw i'll probably run in the evening.

hey adarq long time no see.  i read the last 2 pages of this journal and didn't see any weight lifting.  i could be mistaken but didn't you weight more 3-4 years ago?

ya i weightlifted basically every day when I dunked.

don't feel like lifting right now tbh.. just going the bodyweight + conditioning route for now. Seems like i'm trying to learn how to train without being psycho obsessed about it...  :ninja:

i guess i could back track on your journal but i thought it wouldn't hurt to ask why for a short answer.  :)  seems like you've been running a lot. 

ya that's basically my main goal right now. i've accumulated some injuries from doing stupid shit recently, so, my training frequency is alot lower than it was prior to Feb/March.

my goal is to improve my various running distances: 5k, 10k, half marathon.

personally i hate running (i'm mentally weak about it, could play ball for hours, but not run).

 :trollface:

ya running is tough. it's great for people who are able to repeat monotonous "things" for a long time.. that's me.. :F

pc man

fwiw, my self-assessment is that i'm a level 3.0 tennis player.

nice. was wondering when u initially posted, but didn't ask.. since it's so cliche to ask that. ha.

i'd say i'm 3.0-3.5 also. def not 4.0

Bio: Morning

sleep = no idea, was tossing and turning alot.. tried to sleep at 1 AM
wakeup = 8 AM
bw = 154 lb.
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = none
aches = right tennis elbow slightly
injuries = toenails wrekt, right big toe blister slightly
feel = good



Food

8 AM

- 2 x wheat toast with peanut butter
- greek yogurt
- pure sugarless green tea



Session: Morning

11 AM

run:
- slow
- 4.72 mi in 35:33
- pace: 7:32 min/mi
- left calf got tight out of nowhere at 4.72 miles, so i stopped and walked for a bit.. resumed running a bit later, but just to get home. Felt fine then..
- actually worked on my stride a little bit as i ran home.. felt good

splits:
- first 3 miles low 7's, 4th & rest 8+,



Food

1 PM

- greek yogurt
- grape fruit juice



Food

5:30 PM

- got some dope smoothie at some vegan juice place.. some "cookies & cream" smoothie. was pretty good.



Session: Evening

7:30 PM
- decided to run again

run:
- 6.34 mi in 52:46
- mix of fast and slow
- calf felt good but i could feel some "thickness".
- worked on stride again on the 1st and 3rd mile

splits:
- mile 1: 6:39 min/mi (best pace: 5:41 min/mi)
- mile 2: 8+
- mile 3: 6:18 min/mi (best pace: 5:39 min/mi)
- mile 4: 8+
- mile 5: 9+
- mile 6: 9+
- mile rest: 9+

so I pushed it on mile 1 & 3. My wrecked-leg feels better running fast than when I do slow, go figure. When I run slow, eventually i can feel it get tighter (if it flares up). weird. could be me thinking about it or something too.

i think the fastest i hit was ~10.6 mph.. so that's the fastest i've gone since coming back from this injury.



Food

8:30 PM

- grilled chicken sandwich from boston market
- some zuccunni casserole ?
- a few chips



Food

from 8:30 on.. lots of water with lemon.. just can't stop drinking it.



Food

10 PM

- biscotti



Session: Recovery

12:20 AM - 12:45 AM

- iced my left calf/hamstring



probably just going to walk tomorrow.. might do a few sets of bodyweight stuff, but still trying to get my right elbow to improve more. It's not "that bad", just tired of feeling it nag me.
