- run 1 km
- interval run 500m x 2, ~3:00/km pace
let's just say i don't think a 15:00 5k is in my future.
- walk 250m, run 250m
- pull ups x 10,4
lolllllll first set was alright though
- some other random crap, handstands and pirouettes and TTB
- stretch
not much of a plan going in except to see what it was like to run fast. didn't even have a target pace in mind. but it's good to know what 3:00/km feels like.

re adarq's last post, something my dad posted on fb recently:
If you can start the day without caffeine or pep pills,
If you can be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining
If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,
If you can overlook when people take things out on you when,
through no fault of yours, something goes wrong,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed or color, religion or politics,
If you can do all these things,
Then you are almost as good as your dog.

lol i'm not a caveman, i still take showers ocassionally and change my underwear ocassionally.
lol, it's an example from some internet fitness guru whose name i forget. he was making a point about roids: if you're not disciplined enough to floss, you're not even close to disciplined enough to take advantage of chemical enhancement. point is just that discipline and consistency are everything and forming habits is a way to make those easier.

is it just me or do vertecs often seem to be leaning a little bit? would make a big difference to measured heights if so, and be a pretty serious bug in the design.

why not rest in advance of regionals and try to get knee as near 100% as possible before you play? incremental improvement at practice between now and then likely to be minimal, not worth the risk.

- warm up
- run 4.36km in 22:04
yep, right at that 5:03/km pace. seems to be the sweet spot for now. gonna start adding a little distance at a time for a while before i begin to add speed or frequency. picked a different route this time, to the cricket ground instead of the other direction, and it's almost exactly 1.9km from my house. pretty perfect: can just add laps for distance. the route is better lit and sidewalk in better condition that way, too. picked up pace to 4:07/km right at the end and that is not sustainable right now. eeeeasy does it.
- stretch
- GMB wrist mob
knee, shoulder, and now neck are all there in the background.

yesterday
- fuck all
today
- warm up
- scales x 5,5/leg
tension headache/neckache started almost immediately on the upper right side of my neck/base of skull. would have done more of these but that was too weird. still there mildly, an hour later.
- front lever holds @3-5s x a bunch
pretty solid
- handstand wall kick ups x a bunch
pretty solid
- stretch
shoulder felt fine throughout. static holds don't seem to bother it.

- run 3.62km in 18:15
road. hot and humid and i think i was a little dehydrated to begin with. mild headache for most of this. overshot my turn and just called it. 5:02 pace felt very manageable otherwise.
- walk 0.8km in 7:00
end of run to home.
- GMB mobility

w/r/t avishek mode: cool as long as you don't suddenly start making posts where you body-shame women. checked his instagram, was super disappointed to see all that bullshit on there. it's possible to make a point about the negative effects of unrealistic body expectations in media in general and bodybuilding media in particular without putting "FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL" over a before-and-after pic of a woman you don't know, and then talking about how you're more attracted to the before version.
fuck that.
fuck that.
