what is this 60 hour/week job? are you making overtime for 20 hours? that seems unsustainable and also what business would do that?

- run 6.94 km in 37:17
- stretch
so begins the journey of (mostly) letting go of workout to workout pace targets. i'll still probably throw in a few progression runs or fartleks 1-2 times per week but for the most part, it's ~40 minutes per run, working up to 60.
FUCK it's humid. 74%.

Tennis / Re: Wimbledon
« on: July 16, 2018, 04:27:34 am »Wimbledon has reached semi finals and yesterday semi final between anderson and isrin or something like that. was an epic match. back and forth.
Longest match in history ever breaks the longest match record to 6hrs 35mins, both have 2 game points last round went to 26 - 24 to anderson. one point anderson fell down and got up and continued the rally with a left hand response and won that rally.
his serve has 80% ace rate.
just epic and nadal and djokovic had to wait lol.
That was a great match but it wasn't even close to the longest ever. No coincidence that it occurred between two monster servebots at Wimbledon.
one of whom also played in the actual longest-ever match!

a quetta-born boxer lost a world title bid. pakistan doesn't produce many elite athletes, other than cricket players, so this was news here today.

amended: 70% you're under 15% but question the dexa's accuracy, 30% you're over 15%.
I got 14.2% lol. suprising. Means i have 65.8kg lean mass and 10.9kg fat mass. well .. there we go.
no questioning the dexa? crap, i should have stuck with my original prediction.
what does this knowledge change for you?

-explosive through the roof. Focus pretty off. It's weird, days when Im an athletic freak my conditioning sucks and days when I can run forever my speed is usually average. It might be correlated with diet.
that is an interesting observation. might be worth logging diet for a little while to see if you can find a clear correlation?
big ups on the squat PR, btw.

- run 7.4 km in 40:00, walk 0.7km
- stretch
have decided that 30 mins at a stretch and going for two a days doesn't work. it's too hard with work to plan for that. gonna switch to duration based running with less focus on pace. 40 mins per day for the first week, then adding minutes slowly over the next few weeks. consistency > *.

motivation has taken a nosedive. not sure why. the heat is part of it, maybe. i'm taking a few days off to regroup and figure out what to mix up, if anything, to get the drive back.

england got outplayed and deserved to lose. they just didn't seem to have the skill to keep the ball up high, passing the ball to pickford so much that it got ridiculous. when they did get the ball toward the box they just couldn't seem to make any kind of meaningful connections. bad movement or something, i don't know. it wasn't very fun to watch.
i was watching in the british high commission bar with a bunch of english diplomats, a few pakistanis, and few scots and welsh who were quietly rooting for england to lose. place got real quiet as the second half and extra time wore on.
