- run 4.29 km in 19:55
too fast (4:38 average including a sub-race-pace kick over the last 3-400m), almost like extensive tempo except it didn't feel hard. arch of right foot present at beginning of run but just that, and it went away.

- stretch

why not start with something like couch to 5k, where you intersperse walking with jogging at first?

also, dry needling is wild. my n=1 is that it is extremely effective at resolving referred pain. wish i'd thought of it last fall when i was getting those posture headaches (like i did the other day). something to seek out whenever the lockdown is over. no idea how it'd work for something as severe as what you have, or why the PT thinks it'd help fix your achilles, but i guess he's prescribing it for a reason.

i may be catastrophizing because of the stress caused by isolation. but we are on the ropes.

windy but not unpleasant.

compounding covid-19 isolation and stress, my relationship appears to be in the process of ending.

had a headache all day yesterday that became severe in the mid-afternoon. spent a while lying down, took some ibuprofen, just kept getting worse. finally i got up and shaved and it went away just like that. note to self: next time you get a bad headache, try hot water on your face.

i feel great today, will run and do push ups (and maybe pull-ups, depending on if i can get the bar set up).

- GMB warm up

- GMB foot routine

- push ups x 10,12,7,7,21
trying 100 pushup challenge on for size. let's see if i actually stick with it this time. meant to start 20 pull up challenge too but my pull up bar turns out to be broken. i think i fixed it but i'll wait for the glue to set before i put it up.

yesterday

- GMB floor 1.1
eh, i don't think i want to start this all over again, either.

today

- run 6.1 km in 28:48
tried to keep it relaxed, still ended up at 4:43 pace. that is a few hairs fast but i hadn't run in two weeks (!!!) so it makes sense that my legs were ready to go. right foot felt a little weird at the beginning but not the arch really so that's a good sign. still, no run tomorrow and i'll keep the distances very modest for a while.

- stretch

is australia a month behind the rest of the world? or are you for some reason logging with a month-long lag?  :trollface:

(you're writing dates with "2" in the months position)

blister on left heel, what the hell? been running in these shoes for two months but apparently walking in them is so different it gave me a blister. didn't go for a long walk today. instead

- yoga x 35 mins
did a lesson from alo moves, which my gf subscribes to, focused on leg activation. pretty tough. yoga is really not the best route for me because of my toes. i'm gonna start back in with GMB instead, from tomorrow.

i had what i think was a posture-related (certainly shoulder/back/neck-related) headache on wednesday. heat patches and the electric self-massager are great IME.

a bit overcast but bright. breezy. walked through the olympic park, was nice to see people out and about even if not interacting with them. joggers, bikers, parents pushing strollers, a pair of older men pruning branches along a path, a pair of teenagers making out on a park bench.

- GMB warm up (partial)

- scales x 5,5,5/leg

- stretch
whatever's wrong with my foot is definitely still there, i can feel it dully during deep calf stretches or when i pull the skin up around my arch.
