two months to prepare, after all that foundation you've been laying? run the mile, shoot for 4:30.

i think so many of those videos are from russia because dash cams are so widespread there. take this with a grain of salt because i just read it somewhere on the internet, but i think that's because insurance fraud became rampant: pedestrians diving onto the hoods of cars and then claiming they got hit, and the driver is assumed to be at fault unless there's evidence to the contrary.
i live in pakistan, fwiw.

SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: good
- yoga x 75 mins
knees a bit achey at the end but less so than previous sessions. focused on keeping soft knees throughout, even when the posture called for straight legs. did a bunch of SL balances, was fun.

got in a car crash on the way to work. the drivers in this country are truly terrible, as a rule: i ran into the guy's right tail light because he stopped suddenly, for no apparent reason, after swerving partway into my lane. luckily i slammed on the brakes and was only going a few mph when i hit him. the car will need a new headlight and maybe a new bumper but otherwise it's fine.
on the bright side, it's another confirmation of how much it takes to stress me out: my heart rate never went up, even when i was pulling away from the crash and wondering if the guy would follow me (needless to say, you don't exchange insurance information in this country). this is a trait i appreciate in myself so yay for me.

almost forgot to log last night
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none (on antibiotic break)
MENTAL STATE: good
- pull up x 6,5,5,5,5,5
- bench 80 x 3,3,3
LOL
- kroc row 32 x 20L;20R
- DB OHP 22s x 8,7
- hyper +15 x 10
- TTB x 5
right shoulder protested a little, not worth pushing
failed to bring jump rope and the treadmills and shit weren't working so i didn't warm up at all. felt fine but that's not an experiment i will repeat.
will do friend's yoga class again in a bit. i like her style, she mixes in some bw stuff that's meant to get the heart rate up and be challenging, like 40 seconds of kickbacks-to-spidermans while maintaining a plank on the planted foot.
am beginning to adjust to the fact that at the moment, i'm exercising just to exercise, and that's okay. listening to my body and not pushing through injuries, just putting my system through its paces. could stand to do more cardio. once my finger heals i'll start playing ultimate again, which will help.
EDIT: as planned, tonight
- yoga x 75 mins
knees hurt toward the end and for a little while afterwards.

i've done it a little, on college ball, and actually netted out positively (albeit for small amounts). but i've also done it enough to know that my success is luck and i'd be stupid to think otherwise.
