- but.. only got 5 hours sleep, and I could really feel it all day .. I think I was tighter all day because of it .. I never got that restorative REM cycle.
- dog woke me up, basically dry heaving onto me. thought he was going to puke on me so I had a little adrenaline rush and got him off the bed .. amp'd me up so decided to stay up and help reset sleep sched
^^ only good news of today
diet:
- water w/ lemon
- fasted walk
- protein+water, water w/ lemon, coconut water drink
- 4 x sweet corn + tons of brussels sprouts + serrano + avocado, 3 x banana, half of starbucks premade coffee drink
- whole foods: berry smoothie with whey protein, cookie
- dog walk
- milk+protein, 3 x san francisco sourdough bread (this is so damn good, from whole foods .. try it if you have access)
- water w/ lemon
stretch:
- random calf/quad/soleus/hamstring throughout the day .. just can't help it when i'm this tight
- DONT DO THIS

- it just doesn't do anything
fasted walk:
- 7 AM
- 9.2 mi in 2h:20m
- dead beyond belief .. legs toast
-
scary: tib ants actually cramped up .. in mile 8 .. never had that happen to me before. VERY SCARY. That shit felt nuts.. felt like I wasn't going to be able to make it home.. but it'd come and go very briefly. Hopefully there's no side effects from my tibs/peroneals being wrecked towards the end of the walk, like some kind of splints forming etc.
- so jump rope destroyed me yesterday.. calves are completely dead, hamstrings are "re-jacked" up.
- it's crazy, I used to jump rope like that basically every day when I boxed.. I was fine.. damn I was in good shape.
decent times for how bad I felt early on, but last 2 miles I fell off bad.. couldn't walk any faster.. everything short circuited.

dog walk:
- 3.5 mi
- felt much better, but legs still dead
- hamstrings more dead than anything
- felt my tibs slightly at times, but good sign that they didn't freak out .. though, I didn't walk nearly as long in distance. The walk itself was nearly 2 hours because of how many stops the dogs make.
Going to try a new style of progress tracker: monthly, embedded into my journal posts. Obviously this should be something fancy/amazing by now but, will make do with this. Also, going to go "across" rather than down, so it all fits into one small block.
TBH, I really like this so far.. even though I only have a few data points thus far.
