- run 9.62 km in 46:47
very warm outside, not quite hot. went out a little too fast (4:45, 4:40) but the first 2 km are all downhill and with the wind. came in at about the same pace for the last 1.62 km, but had to work for it just a little. never let breath get harder than four steps in, four steps out.

- warm up x 2 km; tempo x 3 km [4:13, 4:10, 4:09]; cool down x 2.21 km
right at average pace target and negative splits. found a great route for tempo, doing laps around the olympic/west ham stadium.

word, glad to hear you're doing well. +1 on the dramatic life changes, although in my case it wasn't me doing the deciding...
also the armstrong program looks interesting. i lost steam with 20 push up/100 pull up challenge, need to get back on that horse. might be worth trying something different.

i've found the kinvara soles to be plenty durable, FWIW.
also saucony marks previous models down as soon as the new model debuts. worth checking to see if there are kinvara 10s out there, since apparently it's basically the same shoe.

i'm a saucony kinvara fan, fwiw. cushioned enough to run 15-16 km without a problem and light enough to do intervals. and much cheaper than nike.

thanks acole, i appreciate it.
studies disrupted in that i was supposed to be in indonesia this month to do some action research about housing rights, and that's obviously been cancelled and replaced by a jerry-rigged substitute activity. but otherwise class was pretty much over before the lockdown started, i only had to do a little over a week of classes remotely. all that's left are a couple of short assignments due in early june and then my dissertation due in september, which is obviously a solo effort. would have been nice to be able to get around for changes of scenery while i work on it but functionally it doesn't matter much to be doing it from home.
tbh the main thing this changes for me work-wise is that i'll be looking for jobs in DC rather than london, and won't have to worry about getting my work approval status changed.
