back still stiff but not crippling this morning, could stand up straight right out of bed. went and got a 90-minute massage from a woman i heard about through word of mouth. she's a pro, felt amazing/painful/amazing, signed up for ten sessions. back not healed but feels better. drinking plenty water.

back was feeling better for a couple days but started to hurt again this morning and appears to be fuxored for now. i went for a walk tonight and tried to jog lightly, without success. fml.

somehow managed to strain my back, right at the base of the spine/SI joint. was stiff all day yesterday. gf massaged a bit with some warming balm last night and i took an ibuprofen. it feels better today but still stiff. wack.

i will run tonight, gently, and then i've got to head up to the mountains tomorrow for work. may be able to run on thursday night when i'm back in gilgit and will do something very light on friday, maybe with low-volume speed mixed in. not an ideal taper for the fun run on saturday, to have training drop off a cliff for two weeks. but what can i do.

EDIT: biblical thunderstorm, no leaving house.

how is there a 15-minute differential between going to and from the gym?

sick the last two days, no running. i felt good this morning but my head starting hurting again at lunch. fml.

EDIT: taking tonight off as well. headache has gone down but i can feel it lurking. would be dumb to push it.

on the plus side i signed up for a 5k fun run next weekend. not chip timed but there will be other people in it.

- run 8.22 km in 40:01

- stretch

tried to keep it relaxed and chill but couldn't slow down past 5:00 pace, ended up at 4:52 average. also there's a guy i've seen once before who runs super hard in a shalwar kameez, kind of interval style. he showed up about 6 km in and would pass me and then slow down and then speed up again when i passed him. i just kept running along steadily until the last lap, when he went to pass me and i took off just to keep pace with him. he smiled and sped up, and i sped up, and we sprinted for a bit, and then i went too fast for too long and he got tired. i gave him a thumbs-up over the shoulder as he slowed to a walk and i kept going. it was fun.

Great 3km time. Where does that put you for a predicted 5km?

it's 19:40 pace. running calculators predict 20:16-20:20 but i was alone and not actually racing, meaning no competitors. i think i could hang on to <4:10 pace for another 2 km with enough motivation to do so, which would put me under 20:00.

^^^no doubt. the mental aspect of it is really key, easy to see that in retrospect as it was with the races. how does my brain handle discomfort? how can i help it handle discomfort better?

had a persistent headache yesterday starting in early afternoon that is still with me this morning. didn't run as a consequence. hoping it'll dissipate over the course of the day today.
