When the dream started. To be successful, you must decide exactly what you want to accomplish, then resolve to pay the price to get it.

Parker Stinson is a bit of a G

this is hilarious.. c'mon lebron. lmfao.

Wanna be one of the first to Congratulate you on this accomplishment/achievement tonight that you’ll reach! Only a handful has reach/seen it too and while I know it’s never been a goal of yours from the beginning try(please try) to take a moment for yourself on how you’ve done it! The House you’re about to be apart of has only 6 seats in it(as of now) but 1 more will be added and you should be very proud and honored to be invited inside. There’s so many people to thank who has help this even become possible(so thank them all) and when u finally get your moment(alone) to yourself smile, look up to the higher skies and say THANK YOU! So with that said, Congrats again Young King 🤴🏾! 1 Love! #striveforgreatness🚀 #thekidfromakron👑

Just a small clip. I love it, especially because it's "words during a press conf" by LEBRON.

female high school national (US) record:

Katelyn Tuohy cementing herself into the record books. Solo 15:37.12 to break the HS 5K National record!!

Totally unrelated to your journal but I've been watching 'Last Chance U' on Netflix, which is a football documentary about players from East Mississippi Community College and there was a player called John Franklin III who used to play football for Florida State University (FSU) and was also part of their track team. Anyway I'm not sure if it's the same guy but there's a John Franklin on All Athletics and he ran a 5km in 15:03

that's a pretty ridiculous stat line.. just odd to see the 5000m thrown in there. maybe an error lmao? I mean you'd expect to see some 1500's, 3k, as well, etc.

if it's legit, that's a crazy range of speed .. goals++

man low-7's is a *run* for me. lot of work to do to catch up to where you're at.

hah. ya. you're taking the gradual approach, which is what I did initially as well. I think it's working good. Easing into it is important. The key, just like anything else, is consistency.

also remember, my 2nd best 5k was the first week I got my garmin watch, that was like 2 years ago. I should be able to crush that now but, just interesting.

I'm naturally better at running "slow/moderate" for a long time, I think. I mean now i'm realizing that all I have to do is be able to hit like, 6:00 for 26.2 and I could possibly win the Miami Marathon, wtf? That's now on my road map One thing I know i'm "gifted at", is doing something simple for a very long time. That's also a reason you historically told me to do ultra's etc, which i'm not sure if you noticed in a previous post, i'll be doing one next year That 6 hour race.

so ya, time to integrate all of the components: speed, distance etc.

i'm avoiding joining strava because i spend enough time on social media as it is, so i'm just chasing your training instead.

 

totally understand that. strava is really great though. IMHO, i'd join. Even if it's just following me/Joe/Coges etc. Joe/I post more workouts, Coges will eventually

it's much less of a time waster .. I rarely check it. People aren't chatting on there much etc, just workouts being synced automatically, a few "kudos" (thumbs up), and an occasional comment etc.

That's my favorite running site by far. I follow like ~50 people or so, and it doesn't distract me/take up much time at all.

my 2 cents

plus there's an adarq.org run squad (group), with no photo for the avatar!!
