happened to michigan's left tackle, grant newsome, early last year. doctors saved his leg and he may yet play again, but he's still recovering now more than a year later and won't be ready to play until next year at the earliest.

terrifying.

intended to run this morning but woke up with the same headache i had basically all day yesterday. it's still with me. if i feel better this evening i'll do 6+km.

- run 1km

- run intervals 0.5km x 4, 60s rest
2:00, 1:54, 1:57, 1:57 -- all still faster than i meant, was targeting 2:15/lap. but felt manageable, so i think i'll probably keep 500s at this pace and build up to 6 and then 8. it's at my eventual target pace in any case: 1:57/km extrapolates to a 19:30 5k.

- cool down run/walk x 0.9km

also, i've been struggling to figure out what gejuflo means lmao. brain isn't filling in the blank, and the term isn't on google. help!

edit: GET JUICES FLOWING.

 

lol, +1 correct. comes from a guy i knew in HS who played baseball and was famously intense (he once broke another friend of ours's nose over a game of four square at lunch) and socially awkward. he named his bat gejuflo and the word has stuck with me ever since.

- run 6.53km in 34:36
niiice and easy. ~5:15-5:20 is a good long-run pace. feel great now. 

- stretch

acole & LBSS i chose this specific video between the many existing, exactly because it shows it is NOT fast forward. The first takes are missing frames indeed that's obvious.
But go to 0:24 and re-watch/time it. Shit is real...

okay, in fairness i hadn't bothered to watch past the first take because the editing is so obvious that i didn't get why people were impressed. but still, the 0:24 one doesn't look extraordinary. it's just a really fast dude running fast against slow players.

weight control? you still seem pretty lean to me.

- yoga x ~60 mins
gf took us through some basics and then into a more challenging pose that she's working on. try to do this right now. you cannot.



i'm not even sure i could get as high as this guy:



anyway feel great, challenged legs, core, shoulders, and breath in a way i haven't been doing enough.

-------------------------
cheers acole. i don't know if i'd count 2:00 500s as "speed" but i would definitely consider adding shorter sprints in somewhere down the line. for the time being i'm happy to build the base of aerobic and running strength at paces that don't take too much out of me or feel like i'm taking an injury risk.
