wanted to get a "high end" electric shaver .. got a braun s9. LMFAO that thing is impressive. turned out to be well worth the money (saved $103 on it luckily).

funny.. didn't expect it to work that good. I had ~4 days no shave going on .. wouldn't be able to do that with any electric razor i've ever owned. this thing mowed right thru it in a few minutes, easily.

 

Golfers elbow (pick axe elbow!)?

lol yea. fml.

pick axe elbow :<

Found stretching the wrist flexors helped when i had similar issue! Hope it heals quick!

yea that's exactly what it is. thanks for the info! been going on for 3 weeks or so i think.

been trying to stretch wrist flexors, but not helping much yet. i've done some brutal self massage on it, seems to help a bit, until i pick axe again.

had to pick axe yesterday, flared it up more. need to avoid pick axe for a while. not ez tho, farm life kinda requires it. faaawk.

pc man !

found out today that i got an A+ on my dissertation. according to the rubric they gave us at the beginning of the year, my score is just shy of proper journal publication quality. so when we get the official results i'm going to ask my adviser what i'd have to do to upgrade it into publishable shape. that put a smile on my face.

also have spent the last couple of days repainting the front hall and staircase in my parents' house. got a bit more to do tomorrow, but god what a great task. requires full focus but very little mental processing power and it's obviously screen-free. good stuff.

damn dude that's solid. great work

and these light ~hour runs are so beneficial.

beautiful vid <3

it's the shoes. like when swimmers started using those sharkfin bodysuits in the early 2000s and every swimming WR went down in short order.

yea man it's a bummer.

it's beyond a ban now, unfortunately. we're just looking at two different sets of records now. but it's all going to get blurred. really sucks.

hope they ban them from olympic marathon etc.. but it's also a tough questions because shoe tech varies so much, even without the double/triple carbon fiber spring action systems. bleh.



i tell you what tho.. get a pair of vaporfly 4%'s or any of these shoes.. and you'll def respect the performances a bit more - i don't know how they run in these new shoes. they feel like clown shoes. ran a few times in them and absolutely hated it. i'll take my minimalist af 3-4 oz shoes any day over those contraptions.

no idea how they run so fast in them.

Ohhhh don't say that to the shoe maniac, want me to spend 250 euros for shoes i dont really need?

And they are adidas too, although they don't have my beloved boost. It seems that the foam is not so important in the top series, the carbon plates(Nike)/rods(Adidas) do all the job.

Adizeros:




Vaporflys:

they've been hyping up the new adidas for a while now (first saw them on rhonex w/ smiley faces covering them - top secret area 51 technology) .. looks like they are legit lol. tons of adidas athletes now beating the nike athletes lately.

The 1K & 800M PRs were mixed uphill and downhill. The 400m PR was all downhill. about 15m descent, so was the previous PR.
Should have rested more after the 1K , 5 minutes  were not even close to full recovery, I could have done much better at the 800m. Oh well.
Delighted!!!!

great work!
