freelanced a new route today and once again it was exactly 11 km. about half as much climbing as the other day, consequently about 12s/km faster and lower HR.

you're built for bouldering/climbing: long and lean. wouldn't surprise me in the least if it becomes your next training obsession. unless you're genuinely afraid of heights.

morning
- push up x 20
- pull up x 7,6,7
gonna see if i can make myself stick to this for a while. every other day, do a set of push ups and then pull ups to match the reps. try to add a bit each time but not be mad if i can't.
evening
- run 58:55, 11.00 km
gorgeous evening post-ida. lots of climbing on the route today because i figured it'd be better to go up than down after all the rain.

yyyyyyyyikes. time to start doing these again.
also, apropos of seifullaah's skinnyfat thread, i feel like i've got a little more adipose in the love handle area than i used to. not sure, it's the only place i've ever had enough to pinch and there's always been a little there. so i might just be hyperaware. or i might suddenly be in my mid-30s and working out less than i used to. gonna operate on the assumption that the latter is the case and watch my diet and drinking a bit in the next few weeks. see how i feel.
and apropos of the push ups and pull ups, i'm starting to miss lifting weights. again.

emotional roller coaster of a week. my ex wrote to me completely out of the blue to see if i have any interest in starting a conversation that might lead to us getting back together. my brother came across the body of a young man who'd hung himself on the playground next to my brother's house. my friend sent a shit-ton of pictures from the kabul airport, where he spent the last week helping evacuate 1,000 people and leaving many more behind. i spent some time trying to help former colleagues find a us government employee to sponsor their P2 visas, and failing.
going to NYC this weekend to meet some friends who are visiting from pakistan. will bring my running stuff, it'd be nice to run in central park and the weather looks cool.

got back last night from a week at the beach. played tennis for an hour every day but one (when i slept for 9.5 hours -- unheard of for me -- and missed the court time), lots of swimming, and one ~7 km run that felt incredibly hot.
it was a great week.

just to do it. it's been thunderstormy and extremely hot this week so i've been inactive. today no storm but T+DI 170 with temp in the mid-90s/35 degrees. definitely the most sauna-like day of the year so far, at least on days i've gone for a run. sweated so much that my fingertips were wrinkled at the end. the trail was much emptier than usual.

Start waist across love handles and belly was 90.5cm, around 35.6 inches.
Workout which they suggested do couple weeks I might do every morning. It's a 10 min workout but calves burning and while mid section is hot and a little sweaty. But with the fasting maybe not a good idea.
who is "they"? why would a ten minute workout not be a good idea while fasting? why is your midsection especially hot and a little sweaty?
