Hapkido class last night. 90 minutes of pure sweat which was cool but copped a knee right on my left VMO which is currently killing me. Massive corky. I was planning to take the weekend easy anyway so it probably won't hurt me too much. My wife is doing a 70.3 on Sunday so we're getting geared up to go away for that. Can't wait. Now that I'm more interested in triathlon it'll be a lot more interesting than the last one where I was there purely to see her run past every 1-2 hours.

bad ass.

yeah i don't know, 500s at sub-20 pace feel easy but 1000s at sub-21 feel hard. although i've only done the latter a couple of times and neither time in great physical conditions. i will go for a 5k time trial at some point in the near future, after doing a little mini-taper. original plan was to go for sub-21:00 by 21 february but i'll push it back a bit.

there are no races here, it's just not a thing. i wish.

i'm next in the states in may, might try to find a race for while i'm home.

morning

- run ~4 km in ??
struggled, mornings are hard. gotta reorient bedtime if i'm gonna start running in the morning before it gets hot out. forgot watch so not sure about time or exact distance but i did 4 km worth of laps at the track.

- stretch

will run again later.

EDIT: evening

- run 7.67 km in 36:53
4:48 pace. did not look at watch until the end. mostly kept it a shade above easy, picked it up to 4:05 or so for the last couple hundred meters just for funsies. slightly disappointed in the overall pace but that's okay.

- stretch

another note: the garmin forerunner 235 hr monitor is supposed to be unreliable, but it's interesting to look at the trendline on the run today: steadily up from 135 to 152 over the course of the run.

re: physique and muscle mass, i noticed yesterday morning that i looked bigger in the mirror than usual, after my monday night calisthenics. very low volume. that was probably purely psychological -- my weight hasn't changed significantly and i'm certainly no less lean than usual so i doubt i've lost much muscle after the switch to running -- but still nice to see/feel.

- interval workout
-- warm up run 2.00 km @ 4:53 pace
-- 500m x 7 @ [1:58, 1:56, 1:58, 1:58, 1:56, 1:58, 1:57], 1:00 walking rest
-- cool down run 1.76 km @ 5:40 pace (dead, calves especially right not into it, took a couple short walking breaks)
mental game. brain still bargaining with me to cut the number of intervals short but i did one more than last time. fuck you brain. total distance 8.09 km, total time 40:28.

- stretch

also this keeps me over 40 km for the last seven-day period.

last night

- GMB warm up

- pirouettes x some

- front levers x some

- handstands x some

- pull ups x some

- hollow body holds x some

- stretch

25-30 mins in total, just wanted to get upper body involved a little. resting legs after the 11 km on sunday, plus it was absolutely pouring rain. don't mind a little cold or a little rain, but pouring rain in 45-degree weather: hard pass. if it's raining again tonight i'll go to the gym, otherwise it's interval time.

also this puts me at 43.1 km for the week, so this marks a single-run distance PR and gives me a seven-day PR.

gz on the marathon PR of ~160 hours

lol

i've been surfing exactly once, last summer, and can confirm the "pure bliss" feeling from the one or maaaybe two times i managed to really stand up and ride a wave for a little bit. also that shit is absolutely exhausting and i was super dehydrated afterward.

w/r/t wanting to mix it up, only thing in there that suggest you might want to try something different is "elbows taking a beating." otherwise if you're making progress, keep riding it out until that slows down. if you're worried about your elbows then yeah, maybe try something else. my $0.02 on the matter.

- run 11.01 km in 55:57
did not check pace at any point, nice and relaxed. 5:05 pace on average, so slower than last week's longe run but quicker than the week before. felt very sad and enervated all of a sudden this evening and had a strong urge to be alone, which is really unusual for me. took me a while to get out the door but once i did was very glad.

also this puts me at 43.1 km for the week, so this marks a single-run distance PR and gives me a seven-day PR.

- stretch

- pull ups x 5
shoulder okay, not 100% but okay.

oh man i didn't mean you should be practicing the toe drag as correct technique. it's just a warm-up cue.
