Superb acting from the whole cast. The story is taking all kinds of interesting turns, great writing. Damian Lewis & Paul Giamatti are especially tearing it up.

Crazy that that is considered a pedestrian standard for some... sub 5 minutes miles for 13 in a row... im not even confident I can break 6 for a mile.
yet another illustration of just how far out there world-class athletes are. 500-600 men and women qualify for the olympic marathon trials in the US but only like 10 have any chance of actually qualifying. the rest are extremely good runners who are nevertheless totally uncompetitive with the top people.
Bro, Rich Froning could beat them all cuz #fittestever #Glassmanisfatanddoespaleo
what are some beast runner (or sprinter) crossfitters? know of any?

But seriously I've ran High 5s for just 1 mile before and I wanted to lay down and call the medics, just dig my grave right next to me I was done, so that's just insane to keep up sub 5 for 13.
ha.. when i worked at msc as s&c coach, some kid took a shit in a garbage can after an intense sled push workout.

well this sucks..
wanted to PR my 5k tonight.. so, everything starts out great, really breathing hard but also running fast.
around mile 2, I start feeling a cramp. boom hunched over dead @ 2.5 mi .. look at my watch, 15min.
first mile was 5:55 min/mi
, second was 6:24, third was 6:25 (couldn't push the second half mile) .. PR'd 5k (19:18) but, after that 2.5 I stopped/paused watch 3 times while I stopped, trying to get the cramp to subside.. so doesn't really count.
bleh!

nice :F
I have to shave 30 minutes off of my hard-training run pace in order to qualify, sounds hard.
That means i'd have to bring my 7:15 min/mi pace for 13 miles down to 4:57 min/mi. 
http://www.walkjogrun.net/training/marathon-pace-calculator.cfm?distance=13.1&distanceunit=m&duration=1%3A05%3A00
I could go transgender and try to qualify for the women's with sub 1:15.
My big goal for half-marathon distance is sub 1:20:00 .. 1:19:59.
I'm definitely excited to see where I am ~6 months from now.. my weekly mileage is finally going up to something reasonable.. getting close to ~70 mi/wk.
January basically looks like this:
- wk1: 36 mi
- wk2: 48 mi
- wk3: 54 mi
- wk4: 65 mi
^^ also not measured, progressively getting my guts back. Each week i've had more guts than the previous, good sign.
I definitely need to keep the mileage up near 70. Also need to make sure I push myself somewhat on all of those runs, even if it's a short sprint mixed in. My power sucks right now.
pc man!

Boxing / Re: 01/30/2016: Kovalev vs Pascal II
« on: January 31, 2016, 06:44:14 pm »kovalev has a very effective jab he is able to get through his guard just good and they are powerful as well, jean tried to time it and sometimes he was in countering good but kovalev changed his gameplan and avoided the counter's and just too much damage for pascal to take.
ya, kovalev even knocked him down with a jab.
Quote
i don't know why they did rematch
because pascal won that BAD DECISION over Yunieski Gonzalez. It was a robbery. If Gonzalez had won that fight, he would have been the one fighting Kovalev. He needs a shot at Kovalev regardless, he's a decent LHW. I remember someone on his team put their life savings on the line for that fight (for Gonzalez) vs Pascal... so when the robbery happened, Gonzalez was so shocked and crying (I think). There was so much more on the line for him than just the win or loss. A few people who had been backing him put their life savings behind him.

hbo, 9:45 PM ET!
first fight was very good.. don't see how it'll be any different. hope pascal can make it just as entertaining, if not more. pascal is kind of pissed, he's playing a racism angle.. calls kovalev a racist etc.. don't see how that is going to help pascal though, if anything it'll make him too emotional and he'll get caught easier.. he doesn't have the chin to take kovalev's shots. he needs to not get hit, hehe.

- pretty consistent.. felt like I held the same exact pace for the majority of the run, that's why it's interesting how my 6+'s feel the same (or slower) than some of my 7+'s.
- at least I didn't have an 8 min/mi split.. was aiming for that.
felt some pain on occasion in that 1st metatarsal area on my left foot.
picked two areas out of the ~3 mi laps, ~200m and ~400m to run fast.. so 4 laps, with 2 sections per.. so 8 bits of speed work mixed in.
felt good, pushed it but could have pushed more.. actually wanted to PR might half marathon running at this pace but turned out I was 1 minute too slow. I didn't look at my watch any, which felt good.
