- run 30:48, 6.05 km
bit quicker, achilles felt great.

- bench 115 x 5,5

- BB row 115 x 5
whooooa buddy my lats felt that one. did not do a second set.

- deep squat hold 45 x ?
shoulder very tight, also i have nothing weighing down the supports so i decided to just let getting under the bar be enough.

- curls 25s x 5/arm
plates, not DBs

- hollow body hold x 30s

just keeping it loose and improvising for now.

yesterday

- run 33:13, 6.28 km
started slow, 5:54 for the first km, and then kicked it up to good target easy run pace (~5:10). achilles felt okay.

- RDL 115 x 10,10
felt a little pump in forearms. not much but lmao grip weak.

- OHP 45 x 10,10

first time using the weights etc. that i bought from my neighbor last weekend.

yesterday

- run 24:59, 4.3 km
very slow, very short, trying to take it easy on achilles. felt good.

also, have started biking around using DC's bike sharing infrastructure. i hadn't really ridden a bike apart from beach cruisers in 20 years, so i'm not a very confident rider, but it's coming and it's been fun so far. and good exercise, a new way to use my legs. rode about 7-8 miles yesterday, including one climb that was pretty gnarly on the super heavy shared bike.

i just picked up a used bench today that has one of those attachments on the end, had not occurred to me to do calf raises with it. will have to give that a try.

not too bad out. gf was lagging a bit so not quick.

427
- run 32:21, 5.99 km
verrrry humid. took this nice and easy and obviously short. no achilles discomfort,  :highfive:

428
tried to run a couple mornings ago but achilles said hello from the jump so i stopped after a half-block. resting and mobility the last few days (foam roller, active stretching, eccentrics) but no running. will try again this afternoon and keep it short even if i feel 100%.

also gf said she's supportive of getting a squat rack and weights for the garage so gonna start looking into that.

how much do you care about the h/m? because if it's more than a date on the calendar then i'd say that's not enough running. maybe replace one of the cardio cross-training things with another easy run.

i'd also say, don't jump right back into 10k's. ease back into it.

and i'd also say, go get it.

cooler today but pretty humid. left achilles bothering me just a little, won't run tomorrow.

431
- run 51:43, 9.88 km
super nice morning, gf took the day off because of period pain so i ran a bit faster (5:14 pace) and in a tighter window (5:03-5:26, depending mainly on prevailing slope)

yesterday

- run 53:52, 9.20 km
light rain for most of the run, was really nice.

today

- run 39:44, 6.95 km
humid but not at all hot, and overcast. watch says my max HR on the run was 68 which is...improbable. maybe i was wearing it too loose.

all runs now with gf unless otherwise noted. she keeps me relaxed and slow and most of all consistent and accountable. good stuff.

433
- run 54:14, 9.26 km
again w/gf. she has had a really tough month, is even more out of shape than i am. really nice evening.

i've run four days this week, which is my first time doing that since the end of june/beginning of july. at least i don't gain weight easily, otherwise god knows how out of shape i'd be. just hanging in there.

434
- run 44:47, 7.26 km
gf back from her trip so we ran together. hot today but sooo much less humid. still she wasn't feeling well so we went slow and called early. walked the last ~2.5-3 km home.

435
- run 42:57, 8.01 km
fuck i'm out of shape. really have not been consistent enough this summer to adapt to the heat. T+DI over 160 again, but still. anyway it's fun to explore the new neighborhood, i ran on some streets i've never been on before despite living within a four-mile radius of my new house for something like 28 of my nearly 36 years. running north is good, although somehow managed to run uphill the last mile home. maybe i'm just on a little hillock or something.
