lol coges that is NOT winter. i live in what's technically "the south" in the US* and i'd call 12-14 just about ideal for picking apples on a pleasantly crisp fall day, or a fast marathon. no wonder australia doesn't produce long-distance runners, it's way too hot!

i think eric lives in upstate new york -- he gets probably the realest winter of anyone on here. two meters of snow kind of winter.

*i.e. below the mason-dixon line.

Haha.  Yeah I know. We rarely even have winter down there though. Normally we just have revolving seasons within the day with the occasional cold or hot day thrown in for good measure.  If the sun is out then I'm all good. When it's overcast and raining non stop that's when I'm hanging for warmer weather.

My sister actually just moved from Thailand to Michigan so I'm sure she'll be telling me about a real winter soon.

yep, it gets so bad in Oswego ny they line rope along the sidewalks around the college so when it snows people can find their way around and not walk into the road.  Looking at the numbers from this/last year, from december to february we already had anywhere from 109-150" of snow which is on the low side.

Haha. Nice. We don't really get snow here unless you specifically go looking for it (2-4 hour drive) so I'm sure they'll love that.

Sorry for the late reply, but wow what a fantastic achievement man.

keep up the good work man.
40" NEXT GO GET IT.
 :lololol:
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up
-------------------------------------------------------------
Measuring reminder:
5 toe to heel steps = 148cm

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings a tiny bit
ACHES/INJURIES: none, then, well, see below
MENTAL STATE: good, then all over the damn place

- warm up

- DB jump squat 30s x 4,3
threw the everloving shit out of SI joint on the fourth rep of the second set. took me at least five minutes to be able to stand up. new experience for me; i had that prolonged back pain last year in the same place but it was dull and persistent, not breathtakingly sharp like this. i just put down 800mg of ibuprofen and will ice. the gym is closed the next two days anyway, so i guess it's rest time. fuck, i must be getting old.
