Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: a fast and explosive donkey!
« on: May 14, 2019, 11:33:07 am »
- warm up x 2 km; progressive tempo x 3 km [4:39, 4:33, 4:16]; cool down x 2 km
- stretch
inspired by the vid of the wisconsin kid adarq posted. first time doing progressive tempo not on the treadmill. finally realizing what it means for me to keep the hard days hard(er) and the easy days easy(ier). need more ~12 km runs at 5:45+ and more challenging tempo. this was not too hard but it was the first time trying something like this.

- run 12.56 km in 1:10:50
nice and slow, tried to limp noodle it but i'm not advanced enough yet, lol. 5:38 pace still qualifies as very light for me. will keep working on it.

- run 8.0 km in 41:31 ; walk ~300m
it's hot now: 30/86 degrees. went out too hard, first 2 km under 5:00, but slowed it down to reasonable after that. died in last km (5:29), still averaged 5:11 pace. gonna need to be careful to keep hydrating even though it's ramadan and i can't drink publicly (including in the office) for the two weeks between now and when i head to europe. might start trying to run mornings again.
- push up x 25
- pull up x 8

800m+ Running and/or Conditioning / Re: Eliud Kipchoge will make another attempt at a sub2 marathon
« on: May 09, 2019, 11:36:36 pm »
i think if you ask ross tucker, there's no way he could do it in an actual race. he wasn't all that close when he broke the WR in berlin last year: 3% is a yawning gulf at that level. the breaking2 thing really does require perfect conditions, the pace car allowing him to draft, the track. at least for now.

« on: April 25, 2019, 01:23:43 am »i feel like im watching Allen Iverson right now.. Williams is going off.
lots of off balanced shots after creating off the dribble. looks like AI out there.
this is a take borrowed from bill simmons but i think it's true: AI was one of the most naturally gifted athletes of all time. he could just do anything he wanted with his body, it was incredible.
