2016 did feel different somehow. i'm not sure i've fully come to terms with how, exactly. the despair is higher this time, for sure. i don't know, it feels like it'd be a miracle if there's a fair and open election in 2028. fuck.

but yeah, my body is still healthy, so there's that!

yesterday

- track intervals
-- warm up
-- 2 x [1000m, 600m, 200m w/200m slow jog rest; 600m between sets]
-- cool down
did the intervals progressively faster by distance, so the 1km in ~4:15, 600m at 4:00 pace, 200m at 3:15 pace (near sprint).

today

- warm up
-- run x 10 mins
-- hips, spine, shoulders, wrists/hands

- climb x 75 mins
felt uncoordinated and not that strong today for some reason. skin felt raw, too. still an okay session.

catch-can't so far in indonesia, lol. i managed to get a short run in the afternoon i got to jakarta, but i immediately took off for central java and have been too busy and too jet-lagged to do anything but work and eat. back in jakarta now, have some time to rest today and tomorrow, so should be able to get *some* kind of exercise in, even if it's just dreadmill and stretching.

there were a surprising number of people jogging in solo, where i was for the last couple of days, and riding bikes in lycra-clad packs. in jakarta that is an obvious non-starter: the air and traffic are both appalling.

- dreadmill intervals
-- warm up
-- 5 x (1 min @ 3:52, 1 min @ 5:56)
-- cool down

yesterday

- dreadmill intervals
-- warm up
-- 3 x (3 min @ 4:13, 1 min @ 5:52)
-- cool down

- pull ups x 10+3+3
inner left elbow announcing itself a little

- push up + paused push up x i forget

kind of thought i'd try to run today but i am wrecked after the flight. pretty burly crick in my neck, too. it's nice to be home.
