bw = 151 lb.
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = hamstrings slightly, quads slightly
aches = right tennis elbow slightly
injuries = toenails wrekt

Food

Session: Afternoon

11 AM

run:
- slow
- 11.28 mi in 1h:33m:14s
- ran better & longer today though than previous days
- left hamstring felt wrecked after i stopped.. but felt fine while running.
- left calf tightened up a little.

- wanted to go another ~3mi but just trying to stay somewhat safe.
- pace: 8:16 min/mi
- hit 7.6 mi in 1 hour
- had a few times throughout where i tested out a bit of speed @ over 9 mph
- lots of wind



Food

~12:30 PM

- 1 x orange juice
- 1 x greek yogurt



Food

3 PM

- 4 ribs
- some chips and pretzels



Food

8 PM

- this pizza place sucked
- 3 slices of pizza
- 1 crappy meatball
- 1 pint of haagen dazs rocky road ice cream



some stretching, icing, and heat applied directly to hamstring (via shower) throughout the days.

left hamstring in one specific spot (bicep femoris tendon/muscle) feels soooo tight AFTER I run.. I didn't feel any of that until after I stopped running.. that's been the case for the last few weeks. Also it pretty much disappears about 30-60 minutes after i stop running.

going to keep alternating light days (walking) with slow running days and see if I can get it to disappear.. so far it hasn't disappeared but I have been able to run faster & farther.



also, new house of cards season is pretty good.

Olympic race-walking anyone? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racewalking#Top_performers

Women WR is 1h 24mins for 20km, that is 14kmh / 8.7mph.

2 times faster than adarq's PR pace , for ~6 times longer distance and/or ~3 times longer duration.

Once again, comparing Olympic athletes to our every-day achievements makes my jaw drop realizing the magnitude of their greatness, that is the reason of my post too, not to play smart-ass.

ya

i think the WR is 9.3 mph.. how insane is that.

i can barely run 9.3 mph sustained..... HEH.

who would have ever thought.......... walking PR's:

http://www.adarq.org/progress-journals-experimental-routines/adarq's-journal/msg116406/#msg116406

4.3 mph sustained over 2.14 miles.

two bouts of ~30 min icing on my hamstring.. hopefully tomorrow I can magically run uninjured. I'm going to hold back regardless, but i'd love to run without worrying about my hamstring/calf tightening up. I'm optimistic given how today went.

Since I might be running every other day, i'd love to get some serious volume in on my run days.. even if it's just slow and relaxed.

Prior to being injured, I wanted to run this local half marathon which is I think on the 27th @ 6 AM ...... so if I can get in ~10 decent sessions, I might do it. I won't do it if i'm at all injured though.

pC!

ya vargas seems to really be improving.. his power is becoming more impressive. I mean he almost ko'd Bradley two fights ago too. We're definitely seeing him grow a ton as a fighter, fun to watch.

no hill sprints, no 400m sprints, no super high volume calisthenics, no changing my running form, no changing my walking form, no crazy stretching, no stupid shit.

just run without thinking about it, walk, simple calisthenics, simple stretching, and code.

aels.. but replace lifting with life.

there were some other sick fights too..

sadam ali vs jessie vargas was really good on hbo.. then douglas vs some psycho on showtime was an amazing fight. absolute war. finally luis ortiz beat tony thompson as expected, ortiz is so impressive.

didn't see the conor fight but did see the choke out. the diaz brothers don't come to lose so, better not play games with them in the ring.. and they are very tough on the ground, very sneaky with black belt jiujitsu. Surprised diaz wobbled conor.


ps: I fucking hate margarito for what he did to cotto. Should be a lifetime ban..

uhhh.. on a good note.. fastest walking since measuring with my watch.

 :wowthatwasnutswtf:

2.14 mi in 29:35

avg speed: 4.3 mph

avg pace: 13:51 min/mi

mile 1: 13:54
mile 2: 13:58
mile rest: ~12:31 wtf?

I even hit 4.8 mph a few times according to my watch. legs felt so good.

this is definitely :personal-record: status.

it's funny mentioning PR's for walking.. but I do think it's a good measure when it comes to running.

damn.. we need a "walking icon".. lmfao.

 :ibrunning:


(edit: this was the walk back after calisthenics)

Session: Afternoon

1 PM

run:
- 8.22 mi in ~1h:11m:50s
- slow
- pace: 8:44 min/mi
- speed: 6.9 mph
-- lool
- calf didn't worry me much, so that's definitely getting better.
- hamstring had me worrying, so, went slow and made sure not to tweak it.
- quads were feeling it, weak.
- shut it down at 8:22 due to an abdominal cramp

walk:
- 3.79 mi in 1h:03m:53s
- pace: 16:51 min/mi
- speed: 3.6 mph
- max speed: 4.2 mph
-- cool!

walk started out slow, but after the first mile hit 16:39 min/mi and 15:57 min/mi, and on pace for 15:38 min/mi .. that's good actually. pretty fast walking.. Felt hamstring through all of it but it got better as I kept going.


not much stretching today... only a little bit. instead, lots of icing of my left hamstring. mainly focused on bicep femoris.



Food

~3 PM

left leg actually feels pretty decent considering the run + walk... perhaps a good sign.

can't wait to heal from this.. if (and when?) i do, i'm going to keep things super simple, not get greedy, and not do anything stupid. don't want to have another month like Feb/Mar. I'll run slow for quite some time if I have too & enjoy it.. nothing worse than being injured.
