- pull up x 13
i think that might be a PR, sad as it is. was hoping for 12+ so it's okay.

- run 10.06 km in 49:06
felt good, good pace (4:53 average and pretty steady after the first 2 km)

- stretch

1502
- run 14.17 km in 1:14:51
first ~2.5 km with gf, very slow. after that just regular slow. picked it up a little in the last 3 km.

- stretch

1503
- warm up x 1 km

- running drills and mobilizations

- interval 400m in [88,89,88,88,89,89,90,90] w/200m jogging rest
laps around a local field, much harder running into the prevailing wind than with it! pretty pleased that i managed to keep pace so consistent on the work intervals, though.

- cool down x 2.6 km

- stretch

1504

- run 10.18 km in 48:38
glorious day, straight-up san diego weather.

- stretch

i think it's a mistake to overanalyze your foot strike. it'll naturally be different at different paces and on different surfaces and may change over time as you get stronger and fitter. being too intentional about it is a recipe for injury IMHO. there's no universal "ideal" footstrike or running posture.

cool to see you adding volume steadily.

Could we say that heel first is a recipe for disaster though? I think anything other that that is where you want to be.

no, i don't even think that's necessarily true. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/the-running-blog/2014/oct/09/is-heel-striking-the-enemy-of-good-running-form

i'm ever so slightly worried that my gf is going to ask me to shave her head while we're locked down. she's been talking about it for years as something she wants to do at some point. i want to cut my hair and not sure how i'd manage anything other than a buzz cut while at home but i'm not gonna bring it up because i don't want to remind her.  :-X

- GMB warm up (full body)

- pull up x 7,6,5,4,7

- push up x 16,21,15,15
struggled on last set. no way i could hit 21+ on last set so i called it. will repeat when i do my pull up test in a couple of days.

1508
- run 9 km in 44:12
4:54 pace, perfect. felt a little stiff at the beginning but ultimately fine.

- stretch

i meant either total rest or at least a break from squatting. give your body time to supercompensate and not get injured.

- run 11.05 km in 52:57
gf bike accompaniment. first time wearing new running sunglasses, felt nice not to have to squint, lol. i feel like i look like a bit of a doofus but whatever.

couldn't be bothered to stretch right after run. may do later.

have done a muuuuuch better job than previously of gradually adding distance over the last three weeks -- 26, 30, 34 -- and foot feels good still. easy does it.

About to go out for a run. Hopefully it's impossible to catch the coronavirus passing by someone walking their dog. I think just 2-3 seconds passings by someone is okay.

same, otherwise i'm screwed.

1514
never had that before but it sounds bad. be careful.
