- warm up 2 km, 500m on/off [1:59,1:50,1:34,1:52], cool down 1.4 km
all on road so the first intervals was entirely uphill, third entirely downhill. ran with gf so warm up and cool down were slower than usual, but that's okay. felt good, no issue with posterior left knee.

- stretch

Do you see the problem with that though? In a clinical setting i'm not going to exhibit any symptoms. You telling me if James Harden walked into his primary care physician office and said yo i need treatment he'd get it? Doc will take one look at you and say you're in good shape and healthy and you should get going.

you serious? how do you think doctors diagnose asthma? guessing?

also, the eye doctor example some anti-vaxxer logic. went to eye doctor, eyes changed from time to time per administered tests, stopped going to doctor, eyes stabilized per your own perception, ergo not going to doctor stabilizes eyes. of course! it makes perfect sense. or perhaps your eyes stabilized because that's what happens when people get older. or perhaps they have gotten worse but because it's happened gradually and only slightly over time you don't perceive it.

just gonna add my $0.02 to adarq about not using an inhaler for short-term athletic performance. the comparison with contact lenses is spurious.

[A] Moroccan runner ... completed the grueling Marathon des Sables through the Sahara Desert earlier this week. He is talented and he is also a dog.

Cactus linked up with the race after Sunday’s opening 20-mile stage, sticking around for the next four stages and 120 miles of running. The Marathon des Sables is a famously difficult race, where competitors have to run an average of 23.5 miles per day for five days straight through the sand, sun, and wind of the unforgiving Sahara of southern Morocco. It’s not the sort of thing anyone does primarily for fun, excepting of course Cactus, who seemed to enjoy his time with the race.

haha fair enough. although my own relatively limited experience with getting people to throw me lobs is that it's harder than it looks. maybe all your boy needs is a bit of a talking-to about the zip he puts on them.

This is a thing. Throwing an oop is a skill .. ive had one PG i met for the first time who nailed it and it was refreshing. They make it seem so effortless in the NBA, makes me wonder what normal players are missing about throwing them.

you mean other than 99.99999th percentile kinesthetic sense and countless hours of practice?

- run 8.78 km in 44:50

- stretch

the skin right next to the inside of my left big toe nail has been giving me trouble, rubbing against my sneakers and, i noticed today, my desert boots. irritation may have started with the latter, actually. when running it's only annoying for the first km or so, after that it's fine.

i can't watch the game over here but even just watching the score progress is tense. it's 66-65 TT with 0:35 to go. i'm missing a classic, damn it!   :'(

OVERTIME! someone on UVA hit a huge three. fuck this is an excruciating way to follow a basketball game.

mileage was down substantially last week because i took a couple of nights off. one for work, and one because of the dead legs. i'm just going to write it off as a recovery week and bump up over 42km for the coming week. legs felt great tonight, fwiw.
