- run 1:00:33, 11.91 km
nice and easy pace, although pretty variable because of the hills.
- stretch
- circuit x 2
-- push up x 20
-- pull up x 7

shit slowly hitting fan. the thing i helped organize this morning was a bit chaotic but ultimately a success i think. not massively, but we did what we set out to do. woke up at 4:45 and couldn't get back to sleep, was pretty wired.
- run 9.94 km in 50:35
shorter than i meant to go but man i am tired. it's okay.

turned off the news today. about to head down to BLM plaza to help set things up for tonight. one last run before the shit hits the fan (or, maybe, just maybe, doesn't).
- run 12.36 km in 1:00:24
just let myself go, only checked watch once, at 5 km, to see whether i'd hit 30 mins or 6 km first. beautiful day.
- stretch
god help us.

yeah i heard that too about the new sauconys but i gotta take a break from them for now, too pissed at the kinvaras giving me blisters. got the adios 5s, hope they're good.
i want to be able to make nikes work but they always squeeze my arthritic big toes in a weird way.

just realized i didn't order my new shoes the other day because the adidas website is busted. 
had to order just now, confirmed it went through. old shoes are stinky, time for another wash. wonder how many miles i've put on them.
- run 50:56
just over 10 km, nice and relaxed. glutes sore from the lunges! good stuff, should keep those lunges in.
as i alluded to above, this week is going to be hectic. won't hold myself to any plan, just run if it looks like i have a window to do so.

michigan whipped minnesota last week, fans were riding high on our shiny new QB. then minnesota looked absolutely terrible against maryland, and fans were like, oh crap. then today we lost to an awful michigan state team. fuck it, i'm almost glad there's a coup attempt going on because it means i genuinely don't give a shit what happens in any given football game.
well, almost.
god damn it.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Broad jump single vs double
« on: October 29, 2020, 05:37:26 pm »
i don't think you should worry about technique. you're trying to get faster and you want to get more powerful as a means to that end. what's the point of getting better at broad jumps if the improvement is all from learning how to do broad jumps better? just try to jump farther every single time you jump. if you want to mix things up, you could add in loaded jumps and DL bounds. if you can get your hands on a sturdy medicine ball (they're not that expensive) do medicine ball throws.

hurricane zeta is coming through today, may not run depending on how much the rain lets up in the afternoon. it is coming down pretty hard right now. should be clear by tomorrow. i'm down to one pair of shoes so i don't want to get them soaked.

« on: October 29, 2020, 01:13:59 pm »
yes that's what i meant, sorry to be unclear. there's a skill component involved, so it may be just that you had more to learn on the SL jump than DL jump and so progressed more quickly for that reason. in any event explosiveness/power seems (has always seemed) like something you ought to work on, and if you're going to use broad jumps as a tool then DL > SL.

oy, good luck with the lockdown. we're about a month behind europe over here, although cases are already spiking. just in time to have a crazy surge right after the election when shit is likely to get...unsettled.
