I hate treadmill with passion, but its freezing and windy outside so had no other option ( it doesn't help that my most convenient run time is around 9PM ).

STATIONARY BIKE : 30 minutes / 16.1K

Happy new year! 

Almost 3 weeks totally off due to 2 weeks of Xmas holidays including getting covid during the 2nd one. I passed it very light (not even fever) but let myself without training a few more days, just in case.

Plan for next year : back to the usual stuff , 2 days/week lift + some light cardio, 1 day less lifts more cardio, 3 running days ( easy / long slow / HIIT ).
Races goals : sub-22' 5K , 45' 10K / 1:45 half.

Run 6K @ 40:37 ( 6:46 pace )

Embarrassingly bad run, the worse i can remember. I actually gassed out at around 4K and grinded the next 2K in high 7s pace.
In my defense, last run before this was 7 December and legs were ultra sore from squatting. Plus it was very humid.
But still that was a way too bad run to cope with.

Edit: I looked back to see how i did his August, after returning from  4 weeks of summer holiday no running, to compare. Here is what i found:

25 August

Easy run 7K @ 47:33 ( 6:47 pace )

As if i wasn't de-trained enough from 1 month since last run, i was also extremely sore from yesterday's squats and on top of that there was 90% humidity.
Lol absolutely horrible run, I'm surprised i even finished it.

WTF , gimme the red pill, can't handle more matrix dejavus!!!!

I have watched all WC finals since 1986 ( actually i remember watching the 1982 one too, at my grandpa's cottage, on B&W tv, but i wasn't really watching, didn't understand/care for football then). This year's final can only compare to that 1986 one. No point comparing anyway, but those 2 are by far the best finals those last 36 years.
Also, interestingly (at least) enough, it was a 3-2 Argentina win back then: Argentina was leading 2-0 , they got tied in the last quarter but found a winning goal at the end!
