Tried it out (salbutamol) today and im not sure it was a success. Literally saw a big white puff rise out at the top so im not sure if it even ended up going in my lungs lol. Felt feelings of anxiety and dread but that might be unrelated cos i was running late and trying to plan my Final Training Session. Literally made no progress on the lebron 8 dunk challenge, i actually went backwards but that was probably because my body just wasn't up to it today. Was having trouble just dunking without even the running. In the evening i went for a run with the vest and suprisingly my HR was sub 150 .. even though im just as heavy as last time i did this, and today i was going up hill as well. Maybe the wind was cancelling that out. Idk. Don't think the inhaler had any effect at this point since i took it in the morning (around 11am) and ran around 7pm. Weather was cool though, so that might be why my HR was lower  since most of my running was done in warm/hot conditions previously.

Not sure if i'll bother my doctor about getting a test unless im sure i will get a positive test, he'll just think im a hypochondriac or something and i dont wanna have to deal with that. Tbh i suspect i def am likely to have it b/c as long as i can remember my endurance has been awful. Even when i was very lean and light i still had the same issues. Was a weak swimmer. etc. It's been a feature of my life for so long, i just dont think anyone would have noticed, not my parents who probably never even heard of asthma and who else would have noticed or cared?

fwiw. light & lean can help *but* it doesn't indicate anything about heart & lung ability. plenty of light & lean people out there with 0 cardio/fitness.

also regarding asthma, feels like you're trivializing it a bit. people who get asthma attacks and such, definitely know they have a problem. it's not only during exercise, they can be just sitting around and out of nowhere be unable to breathe. obviously there's different levels to it.



Notes:
  • Right calf is bugged out. I need to figure out what's wrong with it, might be compartment syndrome b/c it seems to get worse if i pull my socks up.

damn sucks. i don't mess with pulled gastrocs. pulled soleus ya, but not gastroc. be careful w/ it.

Monday morning!

https://www.boston.com/sports/boston-marathon/2019/01/10/elite-field-set-for-2019-boston-marathon

Cherono is competing this year, he's been red hot. Desisa is coming off of his NY win.

Interested to see how Enoch (Floridian) does. He's not in the official elite list soo.. hope he's able to start w/ the elites so he can drop a better time. I imagine he will be. He's gone 2:18. He should be able to go < 2:15 in this field, which would be huge. FLORIDA!

Long run day

21.47 km 5:46 pace 2hr 03m moving time

Very hilly, mostly trail, windy and cold. Though but fun and my first half marathon distance.

Omg since I finished this run I've had horrendous abdominal cramps and chills, what is going on. I was probably mega dehydrated but the heck, feel like I have flu. Mixed with all the endorphins, feels weird. Also got a nasty blister.

hah. awesome. :headbang: :ibrunning:

"running yourself into the ground" is an interesting feeling for sure. i've done it a few times hah. mostly happens when you make big jumps in intensity/mileage/frequency etc, like LBSS mentioned.

Ran in calf compression sleeves today, felt really gooood. Didn't notice any calf/shin pain the whole time. I'm still on the heavier side at around 85kg so these are a big help. Dunno how much is placebo.. They do feel nice lol.

some people i know swear by them, say they help with their calves/shins etc. i personally never felt any benefit. but if they seemed to work that good, that's pretty cool. would be nice if you don't need them eventually tho.

damn @ that hill (mountain!).

- run 12.38 km in 1:08:36
nice and easy, 5:32 average pace

- stretch

looking ahead i've got a bunch of travel next month, which will disrupt training. might try to take one more heavy week, a taper/rest week, and then do a 5k time trial in two weeks. i'm not as fit as i'd like to be, training has been inconsistent and not as high-volume as it should over the last few months. but i'm likely to lose fitness in may anyway, so might as well see where i'm at.

sounds like a good idea. go4it.

It is so stressful to live in a family where you are the eldest and because of my dad's situation I am in charge and I have a younger sibling in his teens 15, who likes to annoy me and do what he likes and when you have to discipline him, it makes him angry and he starts threatening you with a knife. And the whole family trying to calm him down and he just comes towards me with the knife but I controlled it away from him and he just angry and thinks he is the victim. So much stress and I avoid saying I am not stressed unless it get's this bad. But my sister pacifies him with reward in return.
Too much stress for me to handle. How do you handle with such problematic siblings.

damn that's rough man. :/

reward doesn't sound like a good idea either. but ya, rough.

slept in. heat run. brutal but great.

04/13/2019

12:15 PM: very light: 1h50m ::: (grass/hills, -10 lb water) /// overheat + scorching hot = brutal fun
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2287372141





crazy losing ~10 lb water in 1h50m.. my big (sun-protective) hat was dripping, felt like it was raining.

had on my parachute wind breaker pants (which really insulate the heat) and a non-breathable long sleeve. was toast. hah.

felt great all day after.
