also my whole nutritional schedule was thrown off by the food poisoning on saturday. i don't think i was overly dehydrated last night -- i'd been drinking plenty of water, pee was normal -- but i hadn't eaten a proper lunch.
couldn't get to sleep last night, tossed and turned for 3-4 hours, wide awake. when i have caffeine too late in the day i can't go to sleep but i feel sleepy, yawning and whatnot. this was different. very unpleasant. and i have a headache this morning. i think i overexerted myself on the run, under the circumstances. need to be careful.

- run 13.01 km in 1:15:23
- stretch
fuck i'm tired. legs dead for last 4-5 km. made it to 13k about 150m from home and just called it. walked the last little bit. it's 31/87 degrees out and 44% humidity, which doesn't help. knees started feeling a bit achey 10-15 minutes after finishing. but man.

- food poisoning
UPDATE:
- walk 4.6 km
felt up to a walk but definitely not a run by early evening. one lap around the neighborhood, navigating around the madrasa boys who were out in absolute droves for some reason. ate some rice for dinner and now feel crampy again. joy.

what time you shooting for in the 1600?
also it's gonna be 102 here tomorrow. debating whether to try to run in it, maybe mid-morning.

« on: June 21, 2019, 01:56:25 am »- run 10.57 km in 56:58
not too hot but very humid, went out right after a thunderstorm. also, had to poop really bad for about 15 minutes. tried to hold it in but i was at the track so at the ~35' mark i went into the little clubhouse and took a shit. first time i've ever done paused a run to do that, i think. i don't usually have to poop at this time of day. weird.
lol damn you're lucky, this being the first time.
i've had to pause like 100+ runs.:<
whoa, seriously? the one year i did cross country in high school i remember one race where i was turtling for like half the time. it sucked so much. i'm pretty religious about going to the bathroom right before i head out the door, so generally don't even have to pee on runs.

woof, small shoulder muscles are out of shape. will keep doing these, very healthy.
- pull up myo-reps x 8+3+3+3
there we go. still need a bit of rest between sets to get there. will try to do 10 on the first set next time, then reduce rest to five breaths before adding any weight.

- treadmill tempo 1 km @ 11,11,13,14,10.5,9.9
fatigue is a hell of a thing. plan was to build up to 15kph again but that was not happening, felt dangerous to be going that fast. struggle bus.
- pull up myo reps x 8+3+3+2
need a bit longer rest on these until i get a bit stronger
- dips x 10+3+3+3
add weight next time
- hanging leg raise x 10,10
- lunge x 30
- SL RDL x 10/leg
- stretch
legs so tired! surprised at how much so, last night wasn't very intense. also it's quite hot, even in the gym.

kinda cool, almost exactly the same pace as on the treadmill, without any cue except "run relaxed."

also, i weighed myself at the gym today. first time on a scale since i don't remember when. seems i've lost ~4 kg since moving to pakistan: came in just over 74kg/163 pounds. i guess i knew i'd lost a little but that's quite a lot. wonder when it happened, i.e. right away (people who haven't seen me in a while have been telling me i look like i've lost weight for the last two years or more) or after i started running.
in any event, do not want to be any lighter than this.
