- run 24:36, 4.80 km
just to get the blood flowing a little. pretty cold and a bit windy.

did not run the rest of the week, work and life blew up. but i did get up and run the 5k that i'd signed up for this morning.

- 5k race, 20:46 (watch), 20:44 (chip)
pretty happy with that, goal was to run under 21 and i did. chip time pending but it'll also be under, i saw the clock ticking as i crossed the finish line. even better, my final km was the fastest (4:06), so i managed not to go out too hard. good stuff.

EDIT: added chip time. kind of unusual for it to be shorter than the watch time but i guess the course measurement was really accurate.

i was gonna say, what about swimming? too soon for freestyle or even using a kickboard to keep it really steady?

- tempo
-- warm up x 2 km
-- 5 km @ 4:31 [4:33, 4:30, 4:30, 4:31, 4:30]
-- cool down

hell yeah. this is 1:35 half marathon pace. i couldn't do that for 21.1 km, at least on a route with climbs like this one has. but if i stay healthy and consistent, i'll definitely be able to by march.

EDIT: i just looked at the results from last year's rock and roll half marathon. noticed that a friend finished in 1:24, just outside the top 100 overall, 19th in our age group (out of about 7,500). that's pretty impressive. 1:35 would put me around 350th overall, or around 65th in the age group. 1:30 would put me closer to 40th in the age group and top-200 overall.

even 1:35 is 95th percentile, that's cool.

- run 35:38, 7.01 km
left achilles a little stiff now a couple of hours later. going to take tomorrow off.

46 km over the last seven days is a big jump, need to be careful.

652
- run 24:39, 4.67 km
left it a little short today because i overshot both of the last two days. just good to get out the door and stay on schedule.

653
- run 1:32:27, 15.80 km
short sleeve plus long sleeve is better than a sweatshirt temperature-wise when it's mid-40s, but irritated my nipples :'(

longer than i meant to run but i got lost in rich people land, so many fucking cul-de-sacs and no signage.

654
I use a buff for winter runs, preferably the 'light' ones ( not half fleece ), wrapped around neck, whenever ears freeze i pull it up to cover mouth, nose, ears. Then i get too hot, i lower it again.
Congrats!  :highfive:

it's really only my ears that get uncomfortably cold on a run, unless it's well below freezing, so i feel like i'd cycle through the too hot phase too much to make a buff work.

yesterday

- run 57:27, 11.01 km
route planning fail, this wasn't supposed to be quite so long. oops.

656
thanks loopie!

- run 38:42, 7.54 km
adjusting to cold. long sleeve shirt plus sweatshirt is too warm at 42/6 degrees but gloves were great. would have been nice to have ear muffs, too.
