yeah that's sensible. i think i'll prioritize the 5k time trial, though, it's the one i actually care about. that's soon, though, so i'll have to lay out a little plan for the next few weeks.
also: turned in my master's thesis. pending my final grades, i'm done with grad school.
edit: and also, now that i think about it, they froze our grades when the lockdown started. so i'm pretty sure i will be graduating with distinction regardless of how i do on my thesis.
- run 21.11 km in 1:54:58
distance PR by almost a mile. it was so nice out yesterday that i thought i'd go for a half marathon today. take it nice and easy, just get the distance. but it was hotter than i thought it'd be. stubbornly persisted but i was dragging at the end: last two km were 6:17 and 5:39. overall average 5:27 is pretty slow.
- stretch
wrecked. i had to take a nap and now have a slight headache, which i'm sure is from not being able to rehydrate fast enough. if and when i ever do a half marathon time trial, i'm gonna drive to the C&O canal and just do an out and back on the flatness. same plan for 5k time trial. on that note: i'm thinking about doing a road trip next month to visit some people in massachusetts and new york. tentative idea is to start around the 10th. so might be cool to target the 9th as a day to test my 5k. then again i bet i'll have plenty of time to run on the road trip. maybe it'd be better to treat the road trip as a taper week and then test when i get back. tbd.
