signed up for mapmyrun. first run today:

good baseline! didn't go too hard, but any harder and i would have been hurting a little. easy does it.

- stretch

Did you lose some motivation to be "a fast and explosive donkey"? Your training has been more geared towards general health/fitness ever since i came back to site.

yeah. couple reasons: first, i moved to pakistan, where facilities for training to be fast and explosive are nonexistent or very difficult to access. also, body was kind of beat up after years of trying, not always intelligently or carefully, to dunk. and tbh i was sick of it. spent a few months this summer starting to learn calisthenic basics and now i'm just kind of letting myself do what feels nice as long as it breaks a sweat and/or challenges me to learn and get better at some skill. it feels nice. i'll settle back into working toward something at some point. not fussed about it for now. well, a little fussed about it but not too much.

- warm up

- handstand work x 10 mins
not bad. shoulder still bugging but tolerate these with no issue.

- circuit x 4
-- running in place jump rope x 60s
-- front to back scale x 60s
-- hollow body x 60s
no rest between exercises, 60s between rounds. hollow body holds tough, had to modify for third and fourth sets.

- stretch

life PR: my net worth is now over $100,000 for the first time.

On your way to becoming a millionaire 8)

at this rate i'll get there by age 102!

Compounding interest will get you there much quicker than that!

how do you know i haven't been saving $12,500 a year for the last eight years in stacks of bills underneath my bed? what's this compounding interest you speak of?

where did you move to?

back to lndn! gonna be here working part time at a few things while i sort shit out / apply to grad school for the 2018-19 cycle.

word. my gf is trying intermittently to persuade me to move there after my contract here finishes. maybe for grad school (for her, probably for grad school). was looking at LSE the other day. london's never been at the top of my list for places to live (even more expensive than DC, with worse weather and crap salaries, plus the pound is still pricier than the dollar) but who knows? she might wear me down. it is a cool city.

what are you planning to study?

 :highfive: I like the way you roll.

Its ok if it was a cumulation of quality life choices, effective savings and prudent investing.

But I do hope a little it is your bank roll from a string of late night high $ gambling sessions with a guy named Teddy KGB.

true story: a little (very little, like a couple hundred bucks) is from a gambling session with a guy named bail breaker G.

ah, you've done more homework than i'd assumed. only other solution i can think of is to practice throwing with slippery hands/disc. or start wearing a towel in your waistband, football style.

those are some fun-looking workouts.
