just to get the blood flowing a little. pretty cold and a bit windy.

Saw a chiropractor today

Basically I'm all fucked up

I got weighed and I am 19lbs heavier on my right side lol

Gonna start that on Monday

Skipped the gym today cuz I thought I was going to get adjusted.

Tomorrow I'll do back and bis

whoa i missed this earlier. wtf 19 pounds heavier on your right side?

- tempo
-- warm up x 2 km
-- 5 km @ 4:31 [4:33, 4:30, 4:30, 4:31, 4:30]
-- cool down

hell yeah. this is 1:35 half marathon pace. i couldn't do that for 21.1 km, at least on a route with climbs like this one has. but if i stay healthy and consistent, i'll definitely be able to by march.

EDIT: i just looked at the results from last year's rock and roll half marathon. noticed that a friend finished in 1:24, just outside the top 100 overall, 19th in our age group (out of about 7,500). that's pretty impressive. 1:35 would put me around 350th overall, or around 65th in the age group. 1:30 would put me closer to 40th in the age group and top-200 overall.

even 1:35 is 95th percentile, that's cool.

left it a little short today because i overshot both of the last two days. just good to get out the door and stay on schedule.

I use a buff for winter runs, preferably the 'light' ones ( not half fleece ), wrapped around neck, whenever ears freeze i pull it up to cover mouth, nose, ears. Then i get too hot, i lower it again.
Congrats! 

it's really only my ears that get uncomfortably cold on a run, unless it's well below freezing, so i feel like i'd cycle through the too hot phase too much to make a buff work.

thanks loopie!

adjusting to cold. long sleeve shirt plus sweatshirt is too warm at 42/6 degrees but gloves were great. would have been nice to have ear muffs, too.

legs felt a little heavy, not surprising.
