windy and cold, ran with lady friend again and she was feeling good so pace was quicker with her. picked it up a bit as well after she stopped at her place, ~4:30 for the final 1.3km.

i am getting sick (tested negative for covid this morning but feeling coldy), this might have been a bad idea.

weird weather, sunshowers and even a little sunthunder. humid but not too hot and a nice breeze. not quite TDI normalization season yet! running-partner-pace-normalization, though: yes.

- stretch

also, for the first time in my life i fell while running. we were going over a little wooden bridge and i just tripped. not badly hurt, just some scrapes, but it was startling. first time for everything, i guess.

also, went skydiving today for the fourth time.  ;D

holy crap it's hot all of a sudden! T+DI 136, not peak but first time it's been worth noting this year. i'm also a bit sleep-deprived at the moment. that combo = struggle bus. need to recalibrate set pace.

progress update of a different kind:

still kind of suck at that song but damned if i can't play it all the way through now. i've done it better than that plenty of times but turning the camera on makes me nervous! my heart was beating hard toward the end, lol.

27 february

- run 1:05:17, 11.52 km
bit slow cause i went with a woman i've been dating. she's pretty fit: this was a hilly route and we averaged 5:47/km (i kicked a little after she dropped off at her building). i'd wager that's faster and farther than the vast majority of women runners.

last night

- run 32:16, 6.2 km
trying not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. i'm very goal-oriented so it's hard to keep motivation once i feel like i'm falling away from the level i should be training at to reach my goal. but that's a trap that leads to "well, fuck it then." it's better to do a little bit than none at all, and when i'm in a place again where i can push toward the goal i won't be as out of shape. plus exercise makes me feel good.

- stretch

tonight

- run 39:57, 8.01 km
the best run in months. felt incredible. perfect conditions. this route is an out and back that's basically up and then down. biggest elevation gain of any route i do around here. just under 5:00 pace and i was cruising.

YAY!!!! Establish annual skwad ski meeting ASAP, it will rotate continent bi-yearly, kickstart February 2023 in Trois Valeess ,  then February 2024 in Aspen and so on (daydreaming)


not even joking, let's do it. but not aspen. i've never skied out west but if i were going to, i'd pick a place like sun valley or big sky, somewhere a little less expensive and crowded.
