- run 10.01 km in 46:49
apart from the last hill, pretty relaxed with easy negative split. 4:41 average pace. T+DI ~120, a little warmer than the last few days but still very nice. also there were approximately eight zillion bugs, it's like every gnat egg in the area hatched at once. arms, shirt, face, hair: all looked like a windshield circa 25 years ago.

run 10.0 km in 45:50; cool down x 1 km walking/jogging
"PR". legs felt heavy and i had a mild headache, but cooler weather is like having a superpower. i had to push a little toward the end but i only went for it because i got halfway through and realized i was cruising at ~4:35 pace.

i think i need to run more hills.

- run 10.0 km in 54:40
met up with friend, ran in park. extremely conversational pace for me, this is longer than he usually runs. i might do some speed/tempo work in the afternoon. glorious morning.
edit: no second run today. spent the afternoon painting furniture and then got really hungry before dinner. unusual for me but anyway no running right after eating.

T+DI 147, god i hope this is the last summerish day of the year. improvised a new and very hilly course. watch says 95m elevation gain but honestly that seems implausibly low. maybe it's just that the steepest and longest uphills were all on the way back. legs felt dead to start out with and stayed that way.

they always do that tho, for winning the conference finals.
yeah but, like, in the past they've been addressing a crowd. this was mimicking that but with no live audience except the media and a couple of family members. just looked weird.

you definitely have more to show for it than at the end of a run. might do some more this afternoon if it's not raining.
yesterday
- run 7.5 km in ~39 mins
my best friend is unexpectedly in town from san francisco, so i met up with him and went for a run. i'm in better shape than he is so this was shorter and slower than i'd normally do on a sunday, but who cares. we'll probably do some more runs together in the next few weeks while he's in town.

yeah the original is great, too. i'm an absolute sucker for sappy love songs. give me some whitney houston "how will i know," talking heads "naive melody," mariah carey "always be my baby," jackie wilson "higher and higher," bill withers "lovely day," etc. etc. etc. etc.
- run 10.5 km in ?
watch was out of batteries so i ran free. headache gone. it was a bit warm and humid today but nothing too bad.

i just transcribed my first song. this version of "everywhere" by fleetwood mac: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPbeGd-GszA.
a super easy song (almost 100% power chords and you can see her hands basically the whole time), but still, that's not something i could do at the beginning of the year.
now to go learn it...
