« on: July 22, 2019, 09:54:58 am »
Half marathon today, my first proper race other than the 5k Park runs. Came 2nd!!! My friend actually won and his girlfriend came 3rd in the ladies too so pretty good day out!!
The route was on the canal between Leeds and Liverpool (which is apparently a word heritage site haha) pretty flat apart from one really steep short section.
Chip time 1hr43m34s!
Fully loving the running life, so glad I got into it.
that's so sick man. ya man it seems to fit perfectly with you. i mean, you've always loved hiking/etc, now you can go on scenic runs etc lmao. long runs in nature are incredible. i've yet to do a long race in nature, ie a big trail race etc.. would love to do some of those eventually. off-road half/full/ultra's. the ultra I did was just 1.25 mile loops at an old landfill turned into a park, not exactly nature.. ehhh! it's nice tho, especially when it's dark: race starts at 6 AM, so for 2 hours it feels like you're running in a straight line.
your half was off road? ("on the canal ..") or a road right along side the canal?
anyway, congrats to you and your friends! great work!

feeling pretty good. that trigger point i crushed last night, really helped.
got a bad blister on my left heel tho from today's workout.
07/21/2019:
- morning bw: 150
dinner:
- sauteed broccoli + green bell pepper + red chili pepper in olive oil, basmati rice, avocado, salt, roasted almonds
10:00 AM: bw
- weak but ok
- 3sec paused dead hang ng pullups: BW x 8
- full dips: BW x 9
01:00 PM: light walk + light hill sprints: 2h30m /// very hot - nice /// fasted
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2552053935
- bad blister on my left heel formed, actually what made me stop the workout. hehe.
- 145 after workout. hotter today. heat didn't affect me at all - had long sleeve + pants on etc. nice.
next two days = rest. just some bw exercises (including hypers) and that's it. i'd like to do a long light grass run on wed.
if i can go: wed/sat/sun in terms of run workouts, that'd be good. would keep me at 4d rest, 3d work, which is a good ratio when rehabbing.

It's becoming Norway vs ETH/KEN... Two guys under 3:50 for this mile, damn! Mile/1500m is heating up lately with this rivalry.

07/20/2019:
- morning bw: 151
dinner:
- sauteed broccoli + green bell pepper + jalapeno in olive oil, basmati rice, avocado, salt
11:00 AM: light walk w/ mod hill sprints: 3h20m /// fasted
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2548737377
- some solid gap times up the hills. hit 4:0X min/mi gap etc. 5:3X actual pace up the hill. surprisingly decent.
- 145 lb. after
06:00 PM: bw
- very strong
- 5+sec paused dead hang ng pullups: BW x 7
- full dips: BW x 10
- 45 deg hypers (fast+full): BW x 50
very surprised about the hypers.. BW x 50 is usually after i do a few sessions. felt very ez. probably due to leaning out my upper (easier to perform reps).
might go to a diff hill park tmw. dno yet.
then probably not run for 5 days.
hit a really interesting spot in my glute tonight, with manual pressure. haven't found that spot until now, 3+ months after the injury.
when i hit it, areas in my spine, hip, an glute lit up.
going to try and find it again tmw and really crush it.
injury areas/legs feel decent after that moderate workout today. injury areas didn't bug during the hill sprints.

damn nice!
OAC by end of year would be sick.
i def feel like one arm hanging would be very effective. those are pretty tough. i imagine u could make good strength gains on that quick, it seems like one of those untapepd natural movements.
i never do single arm hangs, my handles are metal and thin, even with two hands my hands get wrecked before my lats. i need some rubber covers or something. if my metal handles were thicker, i think it'd be more bearable. like those pullup bars at parks, usually feel petty good. i might look into a dip/pullup station eventually (in case i land in a new spot - don't want to take my rack there).

damn, weird.
i remember them being crazy painful.

fwiw it's not even close to a migraine, at least the ones i get. migraines are crippling, i sometimes vomit from the pain and i can't function at all.
my co-workers vision gets wrecked when he gets his migraines.
i can't recall ever having one, luckily. i got bad headaches at some point towards the tail end of when i was boxing.. just way too much sparring. freaked me out when i started getting them. probably did some damage. dumb.

Boxing / Re: Pacquiao vs Thurman
« on: July 21, 2019, 02:06:46 am »not a lot crediting mannys chin. one KO from those hard solid punches that he took would have totally changed the decision. read somewhere that mannys bone structure is a one godly genetic gift. same wrist size as a heavyweight.
well after u get ko'd as bad as he did, usually more susceptible to being ko'd. thurman has some brutal power. pac took some clean hard shots, didn't seem unphased by them, but def hung in there and recovered, then put it back on thurman.
plus he's 40. he's taken lots of shots. chins usually get worse after this long in the game.
but he looked like a young 30 year old out there lol.
