Some bad news:
1) I somehow must have sprained my left ankle. Haven't run yet but i feel it when walking etc. Weird, i don't remember twisting it. It's very mild but its there.
2) Im down with the flu or some other virus, FML, again nothing too much but still can't train/run etc, dosing up drugs and multivitamins and food and rest lol.

daaamn! heal up/recover quick.

Now some good ones:
Got the electronic results from my last race, gun time was 23:04 , net time was 22:57. Sub 23 biatch!!! oh wait, it was 4,5km  Average pace was 5:01 , 
Ranking : 63/430 overall , 33/154 age group ( M 18+ , there were no other classes, duh ) , only 5 people above me were older.
Not bad! 

63/430 is solid. moving up the ladder!

Embid is so dirty.

really don't like him one bit.

sux that they destroyed BKN in the 2nd half.. was a good game until then.

22 OA

Incredible race by Degefa.. ran it pretty much by herself. Destruction.

Kiplagat shortened a 3 minute lead down to a minute, in the last few miles.

Tried it out (salbutamol) today and im not sure it was a success. Literally saw a big white puff rise out at the top so im not sure if it even ended up going in my lungs lol. Felt feelings of anxiety and dread but that might be unrelated cos i was running late and trying to plan my Final Training Session. Literally made no progress on the lebron 8 dunk challenge, i actually went backwards but that was probably because my body just wasn't up to it today. Was having trouble just dunking without even the running. In the evening i went for a run with the vest and suprisingly my HR was sub 150 .. even though im just as heavy as last time i did this, and today i was going up hill as well. Maybe the wind was cancelling that out. Idk. Don't think the inhaler had any effect at this point since i took it in the morning (around 11am) and ran around 7pm. Weather was cool though, so that might be why my HR was lower  since most of my running was done in warm/hot conditions previously.

Not sure if i'll bother my doctor about getting a test unless im sure i will get a positive test, he'll just think im a hypochondriac or something and i dont wanna have to deal with that. Tbh i suspect i def am likely to have it b/c as long as i can remember my endurance has been awful. Even when i was very lean and light i still had the same issues. Was a weak swimmer. etc. It's been a feature of my life for so long, i just dont think anyone would have noticed, not my parents who probably never even heard of asthma and who else would have noticed or cared?

fwiw. light & lean can help *but* it doesn't indicate anything about heart & lung ability. plenty of light & lean people out there with 0 cardio/fitness.

also regarding asthma, feels like you're trivializing it a bit. people who get asthma attacks and such, definitely know they have a problem. it's not only during exercise, they can be just sitting around and out of nowhere be unable to breathe. obviously there's different levels to it.

Notes:

• Right calf is bugged out. I need to figure out what's wrong with it, might be compartment syndrome b/c it seems to get worse if i pull my socks up.

damn sucks. i don't mess with pulled gastrocs. pulled soleus ya, but not gastroc. be careful w/ it.
