- run 8.0 km in 41:31 ; walk ~300m
it's hot now: 30/86 degrees. went out too hard, first 2 km under 5:00, but slowed it down to reasonable after that. died in last km (5:29), still averaged 5:11 pace. gonna need to be careful to keep hydrating even though it's ramadan and i can't drink publicly (including in the office) for the two weeks between now and when i head to europe. might start trying to run mornings again.
- push up x 25
- pull up x 8
- stretch

800m+ Running and/or Conditioning / Re: Eliud Kipchoge will make another attempt at a sub2 marathon

i think if you ask ross tucker, there's no way he could do it in an actual race. he wasn't all that close when he broke the WR in berlin last year: 3% is a yawning gulf at that level. the breaking2 thing really does require perfect conditions, the pace car allowing him to draft, the track. at least for now.

weak, stiff, and slow. but finished antibiotics last night and appetite is back to normal so that's good. one foot in front of the other.

Basketball / Re: NBA 2018 - 2019 Season
« on: April 25, 2019, 01:23:43 am »i feel like im watching Allen Iverson right now.. Williams is going off.
lots of off balanced shots after creating off the dribble. looks like AI out there.
this is a take borrowed from bill simmons but i think it's true: AI was one of the most naturally gifted athletes of all time. he could just do anything he wanted with his body, it was incredible.

« on: April 24, 2019, 03:50:45 am »stubbed my toe so badly last night that it bled. no run. still hurts this morning but not as badly, will do a light run tonight.
yeah and i slipped and stubbed it because a friend who was over spilled water on the kitchen floor and then just left it there. tbh i'm glad i didn't eat it and bang my head on the counter or something.
