in the bay area for the week. took a long walk on saturday, went to the beach yesterday and swam in the pacific for the first time ever, at least in the US. it is bracing. i'm used to that gulf stream water.
today
- run 1:00:47, 11.74 km
my buddy accompanied on a bike. nice run, 5:11 average pace is right in the sweet spot. kicked a little bit in the last ~3/4 km, at sub-20 pace (3:50-3:55).

did the 11.00 km loop but from the front door of my building rather than the back door. just about a half-km shorter, interesting.

i woke up this morning with this song in my head and it is making me weirdly emotional. no idea where it came from, obviously i've heard the song a million times, it's just one of those songs. but i never felt any kind of way about it, certainly never voluntarily listened to it, and suddenly this morning it's giving me chills. when i went to find it, i discovered that the version i know best is from the "cars" soundtrack. lol. what a great freaking song.

- run 58:27, 11.00 km
words cannot describe how satisfying it is to hit 11.00 km exactly on the final step of the run. i didn't have to go a few houses up the block or run around in circles for a few seconds to get it to turn over this time. without looking, the watch buzzed the very instant my foot hit the driveway. i crossed the street once at a slightly different point this time, maybe that's what added the extra 30m.

- run 1:30:00 plus walk/run 11:07, 16.78 km
T+DI 160, highest in a long time. felt it. kept pace very relaxed but probably shouldn't have gone so far today, had to stop and walk at the 90-min mark.
