16:00 is elite. there's no way on god's green earth that 16:00 is the 90th percentile for all ages, let alone masters.

just checked actually and 16:00 would have placed 12th at the 2015 world masters athletics outdoor championships in the M35 category (i.e. 35-39 year-olds). that's pretty good.

I thought that was the case. The only reason I asked was because my perception got skewed from a huge outlier- Kim Collins.

The All American standard for the 100m in 40-44 year old class is 11.5. Kim Collins ran a 9.93 at the age of 41 :o

I'd be All American standard for the 55m, 60m, 100m & 200m for the 35-39 class...if I was 12 years older :trolldance:

lol ^^ just maintain that 100m you got... good motivation to do so :D

those sprint times are mind blowing to me.. I can't imagine achieving those times as I continue aging, but I can imagine hitting the middle distance times.. again might be naive, but it's just interesting how that works: like I would LOVE to be able to run as fast as Kim Collins at 40+, or any age, but that's more of a DREAM than something based in reality. Contrast that to seeing Kevin Castille run sub 15 5k's and sub 30 10k's at 45, and I can envision it like it's a true reality. So there's dream goals, which you can still work towards obviously, but then there's also goals that, though they seem so "lofty", seem entirely possible. It's just interesting when you can really feel you can achieve something, versus feeling it somewhat but maybe wanting it more than you can feel it.. just some rambling but, the psychology of this stuff is important. :ninja:

peace!!

Celtics @ Miami tonight :D  :headbang: :ninja:

Going to catch a little more than half of it. MIA has a strong squad, hoping they stop the Kyrie show.. But if they don't, going to be fun watching the Kyrie show.

So I got a Bench PR that I'm stoked about but it was a true 1RM. I'm going to deload from the bench and give myself 1-2 weeks off benching. Now what I'm craving is a Squat PR!

Interesting move on the bench deload .. I like it. Though, I personally would probably include some light assistance style work, such as some lighter DB bench - 3x10 type of stuff.

With motivation like this it's only a matter of time:
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOXJM8tJZb0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOXJM8tJZb0</a>

you post lots of American style football related beast/motivation videos lately, which obviously makes sense, these dudes are monsters. But wondering, is it just not the same kind of atmosphere in the rugby style football team environment? like at the pro/semi-pro/developmental level?

The most intense "weight rooms" i've been in are HIGH SCHOOL American football training sessions.. College too, never been to any pro ones. But even at the h.s. level these kids are so dedicated, so much team work in the weight room to push each other, reminds me off that video.

Squat PR comin` :ibsquatting: :ibsquatting: :ibsquatting:

I emailed the director of that 10k race I went too.. I asked her to post the video from the pace car, raw.. no editing, no music, nothing. Usually they post some clips of the race in a highlight video. I requested the raw video as well, so that everyone can watch it.

Many hours later..... She responds, saying that's a GREAT IDEA.

epic.

hope they post it.

hahahahahaha!!

look what I did on the 11/22/2016, yet the turkey trot 5k was on 11/24/2017:

speed 1: 6 x 800m (or 810m, lane2) @ 5:55 min/mi pace

speed 2: 11 x 400m @ first two sub 5's, last 9 low 5's

A hard af track workout with only 1 day rest, then the 5k race.. haha. Such a noob.

 :uhhhfacepalm: :uhhhfacepalm: :uhhhfacepalm: :uhhhfacepalm:

Also, my diet was absolute sh*t compared to what it is now.

RACE STRATEGY FOR 11/23/2017 Tamarac Turkey Trot 5k!!!!

Strategy: go hard as possible for 2 miles. done.

:ninja: :ibrunning: :ninja:

2016's results:

https://www.strava.com/activities/784300760/overview
http://www.adarq.org/progress-journals-experimental-routines/adarq's-journal/msg127150/#msg127150
- 18:29
- splits: 5:21, 6:04, 6:21, no sprint finish

2017 goal:
- splits: mile 1 = HARD, mile 2 = HARD, mile 3 = sub 6 if possible, sprint finish.

So, if it's anything like last year, that's going to be:
- splits: 5:1X, 5:2X, 5:5X, sprint finish

Again this is a winning strategy. If I achieve #1 (hard 2 miles, staying with leaders), then i'm basically in #3 contention even if I run a crappy 3rd mile. Top 3 would be amazing, but not even considering it.

2016 top 3:
- #1 = 16:25 / 5:17 per mile
- #2 = 16:38 / 5:22 per mile
- #3 = 17:16 / 5:35 per mile

Here's the #3 guy's splits from last year:

17:16 / 5:34 per mile @ 5:28, 5:39, 5:34, sprint finish (4:49 pace).

I remember him passing me a little after the first mile :D



Here's 2015, as you can see it was even faster, 16:00 5k winner, right at that master's cut off :D

whatever.. 2017.. bring it. :ibrunning: :ibsquatting: :ibjumping: :ibrunning:
