+1 for orthotics being bullshit. i got some 10 years ago, when my toes were first starting to become really problematic and i had all kinds of feet and leg pain. they did...nothing.

i googled jay schroeder just now, finally, and one of the first hits is for a thread on charlie francis's forums from 2003. who should be there on page 1 but our very own coolcolj, with the following observation:

- run 10.10 km in 47:01
gf accompanied on bike. body felt great and it was cooler today so i let myself go fast, 4:39 pace including a 4:03 over the last km. i was conversational, four breaths in-four out, until the last few hundred m when i got under 4:00 pace. 10k "PR" of 46:38.

gf said afterward that she understood i run a lot (comparatively) but that she was impressed going along with me today by what that means in practice. felt nice to hear that. having her ride along is nice actually. might open up some fartlek possibilities down the line, always struggled doing fartleks alone.

were they good doughnuts? because i still haven't had a truly good one outside the US. or even really seen/smelled one that looked promising.

if so, i demand details.

run 11.1 km in 1:01
another run/bike combo thing except i ran the whole time. middle 3.3 km gf locked up her bike and ran with me, so much slower. also ran into some snags on the way back because of one way streets that i never have to think about when running but obviously matter on the bike.

reminds me of an old lyle mcdonald piece about the weird non-linearity of weight loss: "of whooshes and squishy fat."

- run ~10.2 km

- bike ~3.4 km

- stretch

went out for a combo run/bike with gf. gorgeous day, was really fun. pace on the quick side, hard to tell average from watch data because we kept stopping after about 6 km so i could navigate and we could discuss route options. but if i had to guess i'd say ~4:50 moving average, not accounting for breaks. which is fine, i felt good, and with the breaks it wasn't challenging. first time riding a bike other than a beach cruiser in like 10 years, lol. i can still do it -- it is, after all, actually riding a bike -- but not terribly gracefully. gotta get one once this craziness settles down.

yeah as i've transitioned into being mostly vegetarian i'm starting to wonder about my protein intake. should probably journal it out for a while to make sure i'm not shortchanging myself. was never an issue when i was eating meat or fish every day.

- run 8.01 km in 39:21
4:55 average although pace is good although pace was again pretty variable. slowed in the middle, legs just felt kind of weak, but went out a little quick and came back a little quicker so it evened out. and at least no negative first km/last km split.

- stretch

skipped pull ups and push ups, will do them tomorrow. undecided whether to keep them on running days or offset. once i'm running multiple days in a row again i guess it won't matter.
