- run 6.15km in 32:03
after nearly two weeks of no running, right back to 5:12 pace. was down at about 5:00 relaxed before my brother arrived. meant to run less but forgot that it's MY house that's 2km from the track and my gf's place is farther. whoops. weird thing happened at the end where my right foot started to feel like it was juuust a little bit asleep. something to monitor.
- stretch
EDIT: also, several people have asked me in the last couple of weeks if i've lost weight. i believe them, i feel skinny. and i think i've been suppressing my appetite, or rather finishing meals before i'm done when the option to go for seconds is there. not sure why. a propos of the convo in adarq's journal, i do not want to lose weight. the shoulder thing is a huge pain because it prevents pretty much all compound upper work, which would at least make me feel like i'm not getting weaker. it's been three goddamn months now, time for some more serious action on the shoulder. maybe go to the doctor here. my colleague's been having shoulder issues and seeing a PT and ortho. will ask her.

word, all that makes sense.
the USATF masters all-american standard for 35-39 year olds in the 5k is 16:00. that is flying. go get it.

super interested to follow your food experimentation results. tbh it freaks me out a little for you to be (1) so lean and (2) so preoccupied with controlling your diet. the "anorexia" part of "athletic anorexia" always made me a bit nervous.
on the other hand, the only people on here with "elite" training volumes are you and kf. you're also the three most diet-controlled. perhaps not a coincidence.

thanks y'all! had a pretty great bday weekend. big party on saturday night, chill recovery/clean-up day on sunday, then a small dinner last night with a few friends and my brother on his last night before heading back to the states. plus opened a bottle of a wine that i've been lusting after for more than 10 years, found in the doha duty free earlier this year and bought on a whim. it did not disappoint.
what a week and a half it's been.
back to running tonight. it's nice and chilly now in the mornings and evenings.

brother here! spent the last several days in the mountains.
november 13
- hike x 6 hours
not sure of distance. elevation gain was at least 1100m/3600' and topped out above 3300m/11,000'. it was steep.
november 14
- hike x 6 hours
partway across a glacier and back and then back down. distance about 2km longer than day one but the glacier part was sloooow going. combo of dicey weather and difficult visibility on the glacier meant we cut the trek off a night early.
november 15
- walking up and down hills and stairs x a lot
soleus quite sore. calves and quads also.
what a rad trip. i walked on a glacier at 11,000 feet above sea level. that's a lifetime first.

1:48, 1:53, 1:57, (400m in 1:33, whoops), 1:56
- cool down x 500m
- stretch
stopped early on fourth interval by accident. less smoggy in morning, still pretty smoggy.

- run 5.37km in 27:29
lost at least 60-90s at road crossings, so running pace was more like 4:50-4:55 and relaxed, not pushing at all. improvement.
- stretch
knees feeling it a wee bit right now post-run. intention was to do intervals tomorrow morning, but may rest and do them friday instead.

can't quite picture the race. you were running up and down a hill? or some steps? in a crowd? how were you partnered with your girl? tied together?
