i really can't wait to see how fast you can run once it's a little cooler. you should seriously sign up for some races farther north in the fall. mid-atlantic in october-november, something like that.

- run 8.08 km in 40:56

- stretch

awesome, best-feeling run since i've been back in islamabad. helped that it was at night rather than early morning and a little cooler than it's been.

also this gets me over 50 km for the week, which i did not intend. them two-a-days.

what's the app?

- run ~20 mins on treadmill @5:03 pace with three interruptions for power outages

drive home

- wrist and shoulder mobility work

- handstand wall kick ups and free holds x a few

- front levers x a few

- hollow body hold 20s x 3

got my money back from the gym. most vexing.

yeah i'm going to play around with squatting a bit for a while to see if i can get back into it in full comfort. if not i'll do something else.

- run 6.09 km in 30:42

- stretch

nice run, struggled a little for the first ten minutes or so because it's early but settled in nicely. christian has a friend in sweden who's planning to organize a phased race next year: 90km cross country ski in the winter, then 3km swim, 300km bike ride, and 30km run over the course of the summer and fall. just thinking about the fitness you'd need to compete in that, even spread out, makes me want to lie down.

last night

- run 8.73 km in 49:24
first ~3 km with gf in ~5:40 and didn't come down too much from that after she peeled off to go home. trying to take a page from adarq's book and build up very light mileage (5:30-5:45/km) in the heat. 8.7 obviously isn't that far but easy does it.

- stretch

my back is wrecked it gets sore really easy and even in plank position lower back gets fatigued really easy. years ago i strained it while squatting for a couple weeks i could barely walk when trying to spar or do any workouts now even today its really tender im not sure if i need to just get it stronger if its weak or if i messed something up =[  i been wanting to get back stronger and get better posture but scared to squat from what happened years ago

damn that sounds like something is messed up. ever been to a PT about it?

@adarq, yep, just getting the bar into position. only the right shoulder, so i think it's just a perpetuation/new manifestation of the injury from last summer, which keeps almost healing and then flaring up again.

if he goes to OKC, they'd have to get rid of russ. otherwise there aren't enough possessions in a game for both of them to be on the court at the same time.
