major PR, actually a "milestone PR" .. sub 12 minute mile for a speed walking mile split, > 5 mph.

http://www.adarq.org/progress-journals-experimental-routines/adarq's-journal/msg137357/#msg137357

workout: recovery walk turned into progression walk & 1-mi PR attempt: MASSIVE WALKING PR: 1 mile in 11:39 (5.14 mph) - previous PR = 12:09 (4.94mph), -30s

WTF. mind blown.

everything says 11:40, but my watch at the mile split said 11:39 and strava says 11:39 .. it was 11:39, annoying.













I've tried to go sub-12 many times, sometimes during dedicated walking phases, sometimes out of nowhere.. Never been able to crack that barrier (and hence the 5 mph barrier) .. and then just smashed it with a -30s PR, +0.2 mph. crazy.

Same shoes as last time, basically the same area.

Here's the old PR:

I ended up taking 5 days off benching. Initially I was going to take a week off but my body was telling me it was good to go. Pretty sure I could bench 275lbs now.

i'll stick this in here, kinda decent, but also need to keep trying to PR my 400, 800, 1km, and mile in TRAINING.

yup, so close. every second is so valuable. last 0.16 was just way too slow.

ya that's Sonja, she's bigtime, she's still the female masters world record holder for the indoor mile. I actually saw her come up along side me towards the end, burned her, then was like where the F is the finish & slowed down in that last 0.16, and she passed me. lol, so sad.
