btw, 2nd place went under 2:03.

pretty crazy.

it's kind of odd but then, not so much. women haven't been smashing records, but dudes have been. you'd think if it was the shoes helping this much, that it'd benefit the women as well.

1st through 3rd ran crazy times. then 4th is 2:06:45.

Bekele wasn't even in the lead the whole race.. he had to catch Lemma & Legese (who was running out of his mind, on WR pace). Then Bekele eventually drops Legese at ~35 KM and maintains WR pace, Legese drops off a bit but still goes under 2:03 (which is a very big deal).

The fact that 3 guys were on WR pace @ ~35 km is nuts tho.. When Kipchoge got his WR last year, he dropped everyone at like 20km or something.

marathon is changing.

Man those badgers are clever lol. But these goats are so agile and so light on their feet.

been busy af.

been jacknobbering the last 3 days. really tearing apart my adductors/hamstrings, in a good way potentially.

felt those spots in my muscles as i was running today. but instead of feeling worse after, i felt great. good sign.

- decent for not having run in like over 7 days
- as mentioned above, felt spots in my muscles that ive been hitting hard with the jacknobber .. trying to break up whatever is going on in there, that's causing them to be tight. this has been going on for years i imagine. but got worse with injury. so, main mission right now is to somehow restore function there. i have some excruciating spots in my adductors.. i can hit most areas and everything is fine, then bam, too much pain. good that im identifying more spots now.

This might might be my next thing - if I can stomach the cost, but there are some cheap Chinese knock offs...

i know someone who really likes the hyperice (or hypervolt) not sure if they are the same. gives it some decent praise.

100m:

Coleman, insane performance. 9.76



W 10000m:

Hassan is basically Mo Farah, but potentially better.. dominant at 1500m, 5000m, 10000m, 13.1.

W Marathon:

women's marathon was nuts. i think 28 women quit? the heat was insane, i think it's 110F+ heat index?

the outdoor stadium has "AC" (huge fans blowing). so apparently it's not as bad on the track. but lots of people saying the fluctuations in temperatures (warmup areas <-> track) is really rough.

On vertec
36.5 standing
47.5 off a run

love the vertec jumps. he maxes out that vertec. wonder if he could get a bit more.

I have the same reach as him. my max RVJ on a vertec was 133" touch IIRC. he hits it standing. lool.
