picked up my new kinvara 9s today. excited to take them for a spin tonight. the kinvara 8s have just about 1200km/750 miles on them, which is good service.

awesome.

those 8's looked pretty beat up. got some good miles out of them.

i hate situps so much. i used to do tons of them. fu*k, they suck.

come to think of it, i haven't done one in like 12 years, lol.

oregon project, massive PR...drugs. gotta at least suspect given how much smoke there is.

i dno.. has there been recent smoke though? alot of the smoke is pretty old AFAIK.

i mean these two athletes are world class. hassan is a 4:15 miler, 14:23 5k etc - both a month or so ago.. kejelcha is ridiculous too (12:5X 5k? last month and sub8 2 mile a few months ago). just didn't know they had half marathon endurance.

both times are astonishing to me though.. half marathon specialist times. but then I guess Mo can go from 5k/10k shape and drop 59:23 so, no idea. maybe half marathon specialist is sub59 for men. but for women, 1:05 is definitely among the best, that's upper echelon.

i'm naive to drugs. don't see how hassan/kejelcha would be cheating, especially being under project oregon: rupp is one of the most tested athletes in the world etc. tons of scrutiny of project oregon comes with more testing.

i personally don't like making drug allegations, especially for athletes like this who have never had problems. takes away from their accomplishments.

pc!

bruh. she PR'd her half by 12 minutes...........

?hl=en&taken-by=sifanhassan

?!?!?! insane. She also set several more records. lmfao!!

Here is when I realized I ran an European record on the half marathon! 😁
And on 15k and 20k. And a Dutch record on 10k. And I also improved my PB with 12 minutes 🤣

truly crazy.

17 September 2018

Went for a run.
Plan was a fast 5K , to see where i am. Goal (estimation) was 30m(+-1).
Result was..... 27'54'' , HUGE MF  LIFETIME BY 36 SECONDS, FIRST TIME EVER UNDER 28'' , BLLAAAARRRGGHHHHH 

Did the first 3km at around 90%buffer. When i saw i was at 5'35'' average at 3km, I knew i had to chase the PR and so i did. At the same time fatigue kicked in so the last 1,5km was @ 100%. However i found this new trick, like phasing out of the struggle, detaching from the body. Knowing and feeling the pain/fatigue , but somehow like watching it from above. Find the pace, follow it, ignore the pain. I have no idea if that make any sense and if i am describing it well, but it worked damn well.

great job man!!! huge PR.

when's your 5k race again? sounds like you should put it in the upcoming competitions thread............

also, not entirely sure what the detaching feeling is. when i'm in pain/struggling, man is it brutal hah. even in races, i don't think i've ever been able to detach from it. What works best for me is going into it head on, accepting it, and accepting that it'll get worse, so more of just an acknowledgement while i'm running that this will feel horrible & won't get any better. lol. Sometimes when I mention that I "had no fight", that's basically what i'm referring to. When I don't have any fight, I just back off and don't battle it.

great that it worked so well, keep perfecting it on important runs!

pc!

speed!

NW/NLAD.

word.

if i can feel like i did tonight, every time i run, i'd be more happy running. i mean i love running but, i love it way more when I feel like I did tonight. felt good. fast/snappy/powerful/loose/bouncy/strong etc. compare that to this morning........... where I felt like absolute garbage.

gn!

once again i tip my hat to the awesome consistency of your training.

x2.

I didn't want to post this because I am just very sceptical as I am used to hearing BS from floyd maywether but seeing it all over the news as they are looking for a story.

I thought i will post here even though I don't believe it until they sign a contract but mayweather has said that he is fighting pacquiao on december.

lol that's weird. haven't heard anything about that yet. floyd better have been training if he's going to step in there with pac, better not take him lightly.

I also wanted to post something here about the ggg vs canelo fight. when they first fought canelo was not aggressive enough and didn't do alot of combos until the last few rounds but this he was better and just aggressive throughout. But GGG should have won imo.

from everything i've heard, looks like GGG should have won the fight. Sounds close tho from the stuff i've read, and the punch stats. If GGG got robbed again, that is absolutely brutal. He should have ended Canelo though :/ I heard he had Canelo hurt badly in the 9th or so. Apparently GGG started slow again.. man if that's the case, should have brought it earlier. Bad move, again.
