Went to a career fair at my university today. Dropped off my resume with ~15 companies. Most of them are accounting and finance companies. Never really realized how many different places I could work at with a BS in Computer Science, not even programming related. The degree requires great analytical and problem-solving skills, which many companies want in their workers.

MANY people impressed that I was mastering in cyber security (especially the accounting and finance companies). Some wanted my resume right after hearing that. Most weren't hiring for my set of skills though. The Big 4 accounting companies were there, but are not hiring for my skill set until September. Which is fine, I graduate in December so that would line up nicely.

Had a blast. I was very much myself and had many recruiters laughing a ton. They forgot they were even there to recruit! I looked like I was already friends with them. It's nice to have these people view me face to face so I can really get a chance to set myself apart from the rest since I don't have much relevant work experience.

pretty cool.

what are your set of skills briefly, if you don't mind me asking?

damn havn't heard that in a while.. love that.

I'm looking into muscle stims, looks like you might want too also haha.

nah, not for me. To avoid the soreness, I could have just done lower volume. I will also adapt, so this kind of volume/workout won't cause such incredible soreness in the future. I'm probably not going to be lifting any time soon so, once I adapt to a "bodyweight stimulus", doesn't really make me sore the following days. Feels good in fact.

so don't think I need anything like TENS/stim etc. i've seen people promote it for years, for recovery/performance etc. Never really been interested enough to try it out. I'm also not into supps. I do weird stuff but I also avoid weird stuff.

if you utilize it though, obviously will be curious to see how it affects you.

I'm curious to see if this "tart cherry juice" will help with my soreness tomorrow. Lots of people swear by it. Though, if i'm not sore tomorrow, we can't say the TCJ was the culprit. I've been drinking it since last week, but primarily because of how it tastes mixed with beet juice (which can be pretty harsh).

Nothing worse than the days where its a struggle to put shorts on.

ya, it's painful. feel like i'm 90+ years old. getting onto/off of a toilet is pretty brutal too.

6:45 AM

run:
- 12.00 mi in 1:35:52
- relaxed long run
- pace: 7:59 min/mi
- speed: 7.5 mph

splits:
- miles 1,2,3: 7:28, 7:38, 7:52
- miles 4,5,6,7,8,9: 8+
- miles 10,11: 7:49, 7:52
- miles 12: 8+

pretty consistent pacing. tbh, thought I was under 8 every mile, even running relaxed/wrecked etc. Highest was 8:22, but most were low 8's.. so I guess I wasn't that far off.

legs were so wrecked for the first 1/2 mile or so, glutes especially. was brutal. then I just kind of zoned out.

left foot (extensor tendonitis) didn't bug me.. shoes were very loose.



Food

very happy that I got up at 6 AM today (and slept so early last night).

crazy sore. left foot felt good all day. this is good news considering it hurt like crazy after my 5k on sunday. this extra rest is going to work it out.

tomorrow i'll probably only be able to do upper-calisthenics. hoping to recovery fully by Thursday... I might try and PR my total distance in one run (15+ miles, maybe 18-20 HEH!!!!). dno yet. now that i'm taking days off between my long runs, I can recover more mentally/physically and push myself harder per session.

Session: Morning

9 AM

bodyweight walking lunges:
- 6 x length of soccer field (~104 lunges per)
-- So.. 6 x ~104
-- pretty tough but.. was good.
-- legs super-swole after & all day.
- ~9:16 AM - ~9:45 AM (need to get an exact time next time, messed up)

upper body calisthenics:
- really strong.. taking last week off made me feel great
- very strong split-leg dips (BW x 9)
- very strong & fast (explosive) full range, close grip chinups: BW x 10
- bunch of other stuff, but only ~30 minutes, not an hour like usual

glute bridges:
- 1 x 20
- wanted to finish off with 5 x 50 but.. glutes were shaking so bad, so cut it.

calf raises:
- 1 x 25
- same as above (except 5 x 25)
- dead, done



Food

11 AM

- 1 x chocolate milk



Food

12 PM

- big bowl of red kidney beans and white rice, with jalapeno/serrano pepper
- a bunch of cape cod sweet red pepper chips, really good.. maybe 2 servings (~30+ chips)
- some almonds
- 1 x greek yogurt
- small bit of ice cream



Food

6 PM

- 5 eggs mixed with green pepper/mushroom
- big bowl of cheerios with honey & whole milk
- 1 x orange juice




legs are pretty dead.. hoping they aren't insanely sore tomorrow. I imagine they might be... :F I plan to run early in the morning so.. would be nice if they recovered quite a bit.

so i'm adding very high volume lunges into the mix.. also plan to add high volume glute bridges/calf raises. Also hill sprints at some point. And speed work on sat/sun.

So I might actually do this:
- M/W/F: lower + upper calisthenics/bodyweight
-- M/F are optional upper and/or lower.. ie, might want to just do upper on Fri before speed work Sat etc.
- Tu/Th: Long runs
- Sat/Sun: Running on a track and or hill sprints, more speed work oriented
