tbh i'm surprised the iten fitness tourism industry isn't more built out than it seems to be, given how many rich fitness hobbyists there are. at a glance this place looks like a foreign guy profiting off of indigenous culture, which sets off alarm bells. happens all over the world in the tourism industry, including here in pakistan. not impugning this dude in particular, maybe he's doing things right. easy to do things wrong, though.

it's great that you're staying so motivated even after the disappointment of not making one of the bigger clubs. IME dominating on a crappy team is a good way to get noticed by the bigger teams. if you stay healthy and keep showing out at tournaments where truck stop, mad men, whoever the good mixed teams are now, etc. are playing they do notice. "team X sucks but so-and-so gets D's and has a huge backhand," or whatever.

Lol i appreciate it but I actually like and get along with the team I am playing on now and thinking about playing here next year unless I make Truck. Coach is an excellent analyst and it would be good to try to build inatead of starting from scratch every new team I make. Besides, the W/L doesn't tell the whole story and this was a pretty high level tournament.

even better.

went to karachi for the weekend, just for a mini getaway while gf is down there for work. she'd left her running shoes behind so i brought them down to her and we went to the hotel gym yesterday for a good sweat.

yesterday

- run 7.2 km in 40:00
nice and easy

- some random upper push/pull and BSS

- stretch

back too late tonight to run, there was a huge traffic jam on the highway getting home. back to normal tomorrow.

- run 5.8 km in 32:07

- stretch

left hamstring a bit stiff so took it easy again pace-wise. meant to do 40 mins but it started lightning in the distance and then a family of boars crossed the road in front of me and it was dark. woods on one side of the road, high grass on the other. not tryna get in the middle of a family of wild boars at night when i can't see any of them. so i turned around and called it an evening.

meant to run for an hour but got home just short. oh well. felt great, nice and slow. keep the hard days hard and the easy days easy. starting to learn what that means, i think.

- run 7.84 km in 41:39

- stretch

slightly cooler this evening, only high 80s/low 30s, but 75-80% humidity. right forearm, shins, quads and abs all a little sore but nothing serious. right shoulder unhurt, which is the first time i've been able to say that after ultimate in just about a year.

Interesting how the field rectangle seems to narrow in the center. Running in vert?

haha not really "vert". we try sometimes to organize a bit but it's pickup where i'm by far the most skilled and experienced player. you've played with me, that should give you a sense of how high the quality is.  ::)

what do you think is your biggest area for improvement right now? if your VO2 max really is up in that range, then why aren't you running faster?

actually come to think of it the conditions probably don't help. 80s and humid ain't optimal.

- ultimate: 4.2 km in 49:48 (stopped watch during breaks but not between points)
finally wore watch during ultimate. only takes readings every 10s so the margin of error is pretty big, but still glad to have a ballpark. interesting.

- stretch

top "non-elite" (i.e. normal bib number) finisher was matthew herbert in 31:41, 18th overall. that's damn fast.
