some additional info I put in there:

Might do some training recap posts occasionally. Here's one for the last month. Spent the last month getting back to my bread & butter: "speed" work. it's a quick recap of this small "speed block" i've been on. I'm back in sub3 1km / sub5 mile shape, so that's good. I'd like to crush my PR's within the next 2 months: current PRs = 200 (28), 400 (61), 800 (2:17), 1km (2:53), 1 mile (4:49), and 2 mile (11:03 hah). For this block of training, I removed the pacing/distance/etc data screens on my watch. I only have the "clock" on there. So every session i did, had zero pace feedback, which was intentional: trying to get all of that "garbage" out of my head. I very much enjoy running by feel. I also enjoy running hard, frequently: 12 speed days @ 24 total, 2x/day on speed days.

Saul canelo alvarez has announced he will be moving up a weight to fight rocky fieldings for the 168lb title.

 

I am starting to dislike canelo more and more. He is a 154lb fighter, made excuses to go up to fight ggg and now is jumping straight up to 168 to fight rocky fielding thinking it will be an easy fight and wants to win a title at a weight.

I don't mind it. Sure, go up and grab titles. But damn, feel bad for GGG.

Want to see errol spence face canelo and want spence to destroy him.

yea i'd like to see that also. not sure Spence could do it (especially not "destroy" Canelo), Canelo is a beast at 147.. but i'd like to see it. I liked Canelo alot more before the "draw robbery" and the "win robbery" against GGG, oh and before the "tainted meat". But I guess I should give him a pass on the tainted meat stuff, could be a legit possibility in Mexico, who knows.

oh sh*t. forgot about Yuki.
