will post more later but,

official 18:05 (long by ~0.07 mi I think): http://www.splitsecondtiming.com/results/2018/mps2018.php

17:43 unofficial! new 5k PR by 7s. :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record:
- https://www.strava.com/activities/1433966749

5:37, 5:48 (hill at 1.5 which took me into the low 6's), 5:43, 0.17 @ 5:21.

Felt like I was in all splits sub-5:40 today.. crazy. The first 5:37 was very easy, relaxing/effortless easy.

ran the whole thing solo too .. that's why the 5k itself was easy .. just ran at a steady pace, no one to battle with etc.





also, while doing my middle-long run after, hundreds of people at the park running/sprinting hills etc.. like this:

Forget Diamond league. All the action is on this thread. All the competitions you take part it and posting the results on a regular basis too. Just awesome.

Maybe a televised competition of a marathon in the near future you up against some of the best, neck and neck to the finish line.

Good luck with and keep up the good work.

haha thanks man!!! :D :highfive:

ya maybe in like 3-4 years lmao!! if i stay healthy and push it for 3-4 years, i should be flying.. then maybe i can get some TV time!! :D :D  :ninja:

My waking HR was 109. It's been high since weds night. Im going to go see a doctor

Good idea mate. Best to get it checked. What's your resting HR?

it's between 50 and 70 now. but long story short i had to go to hospital (gp send me there) b/c there was a problem with my heart shown on the ECG, showed a flutter pattern. GP called me an ambulance and i spent a night at the hospital. Magically my heart went into sinus in the morning and they discharged me that day. Im on beta blockers and blood thinners now so i cant play contact sport anymore. No basketball for 5 months. Cardiologist wants to do an ablation. Im not sure i want that but he knows better i guess. so idk. never had surgery before.. bit scary.

wtf. fuck man.

as for cardiac ablation etc -> 2nd & 3rd opinions for sure.

I've had some pretty scary heart palpitations as well, but 3 years ago, before I quit that job that had me pulling all nighters & just stressful af.. I'd try going to sleep and my heart would be racing, felt like I was going to have a heart attack. Happened quite frequently towards the end, thought I was going to die. Unlike you (i'm not as smart), I didn't go to the doc or anything, instead I just quit my job ehh. I mean it helped, haven't had those symptoms since I "recovered" from that environment (I imagine some damage was done though). But I have had some weird heart stuff throughout my life. One thing I get on occasion is that massive "jolt": like out of nowhere, usually when lying down/resting, a massive jolt. I went to a few docs when I was younger to figure it out, they said I was fine but they didn't really do much investigation other than a few scans/tests. I personally don't think that's very normal, but who knows. I haven't had one of those in a while, but last week I had one. Only way I can explain it is, probably a shock from one of those AED devices. ehh. Btw, i've also had crazy high waking HR's, even when being in great condition. In fact, if i'm going to have a racing HR now, it'd most likely be in the morning after getting TOO MUCH sleep. It feels as if my body is 'forcing me to wake up'. Doesn't happen often though.

Anyway, really **hoping** you don't have to get any operations or anything like that. Who knows, the stuff you're experiencing right now could be related to other factors, and once those are addressed, might not need an op .. that's why i'd get a few opinions first. I mean, i'd personally want to figure out if it's potentially the caffeine or some other supplementation you're taking, or work/life/stress etc before getting an op, but obviously you'd want the help of some docs to figure that out -> not just do it on your own.

peace man!

ya I saw photos of that weather, damn! also nuts that you spun like that; being from south FL, i've never had my car spin.. but I guess it's more of a thing in snowy/icy areas, never experienced that. I did see a truck spin 360 once in the rain, but he was driving like a nutcase.

good session at least!

and there's no video of him squatting. so who knows what he means by squat. also who knows how often he trains it, and at what speed, what form etc.

also what are you talking about with "wtf squat is good for"? he's claiming a 2.6 BW squat.................................................................

 :uhhhfacepalm:
lol
u are right.
the 352lbs squat sound so tiny.. when being compare with dude in adarq.

but again.. that is his massive 2.6bw

352 doesnt sound tiny if you're telling me a 130 lb dude is squatting it..

Quote
btw he is tiny, relatively to other Sprinter don u feel

nope. especially not at 5'8".

Tropical 5k -> January 27, 2018

Publix A1A Half Marathon -> February 18, 2018
- 1:27:11, 25th OA

Superhero 5k -> March 3, 2018
Run for the kids 10k -> March 10,2018

Coral Springs Half Marathon -> March 24, 2018

That's what i'm focusing on!

just edited my OP, added a 5k & 10k - don't care style!

the fun thing is, i'm going to turn both of those into long runs:
1. 5k whatever + hilly long run
2. 10k hard + 10k mod (doubling back on the course lol!)
- runlikeagirl signed up and will attempt this with me. it's more of a half marathon training run -> practicing starting hard then being able to try and hold on to a solid moderate pace.

cool.
