Sudden hectic work load attack, 2 days of no training, FML its too early for that shit!

20 September 2018

Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches : none

1½ hours full court basketball.
No subs. Much improved endurance/speed etc. Was able to keep it uptempo for about a whole hour. Then i gassed out and i had to masively skip plays.
Was strong , was much faster than other times. But as it always happens, better endurance means more effort so i got wrecked lol.
Also, I finally got a badass jump after i cant even remember how long. Was an offensive rebound tip in, what i didn't realize on time was that i had the ball above the rim when i tipped it in. Teammates said it looked like a dunk, lol. But it wan't. It was just a perfectly timed tip-in that my hand met the ball at the peak of the jump. Still happy, felt younger haha.

that's all that matters.....  :ninja: 8) :derp: :ibjumping: :wowthatwasnutswtf:

lance armstrong was the most tested athlete in the world at one time. maybe i'm just being cynical, but the smoke ain't that old: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/19/sports/nike-oregon-project-alberto-salazar-dathan-ritzenhein.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share&_r=0

ya that's bad stuff.

i guess the definition of "old" is the question. alot of that happened 4+ years ago etc. Hassan/Kejelcha have only been training with him and the project for a few years, iirc.

but ya, it'd be great if they just ditched Salazar and picked up a clean coach to run it.

that testimony from Datahn is very damning.

Salazar is a piece of shit.

damn that diss was dirty. went pretty hard.

eminem is a bully. i remember losing pretty much all respect for him after what he did with Moby. and this kelly dude dropped some facts about how awful eminem's gotten.

picked up my new kinvara 9s today. excited to take them for a spin tonight. the kinvara 8s have just about 1200km/750 miles on them, which is good service.

awesome.

those 8's looked pretty beat up. got some good miles out of them.

oregon project, massive PR...drugs. gotta at least suspect given how much smoke there is.

i dno.. has there been recent smoke though? alot of the smoke is pretty old AFAIK.

i mean these two athletes are world class. hassan is a 4:15 miler, 14:23 5k etc - both a month or so ago.. kejelcha is ridiculous too (12:5X 5k? last month and sub8 2 mile a few months ago). just didn't know they had half marathon endurance.

both times are astonishing to me though.. half marathon specialist times. but then I guess Mo can go from 5k/10k shape and drop 59:23 so, no idea. maybe half marathon specialist is sub59 for men. but for women, 1:05 is definitely among the best, that's upper echelon.

i'm naive to drugs. don't see how hassan/kejelcha would be cheating, especially being under project oregon: rupp is one of the most tested athletes in the world etc. tons of scrutiny of project oregon comes with more testing.

i personally don't like making drug allegations, especially for athletes like this who have never had problems. takes away from their accomplishments.

And on 15k and 20k. And a Dutch record on 10k. And I also improved my PB with 12 minutes 🤣

mindblown how fast Hassan ran a half marathon.. she's basically in peak mile shape, almost peak 5k shape.. and she drops a 1:05:15. Not too far off the women's WR.. WTF?

her male (project oregon) teammate (Kejelcha) also ran an insane half time, 59:17.. and he's in peak 3k/5k shape.

pretty crazy.

I didn't even know those two ran halfs...

Hassan got the women's EU record.

they have a great site! seems like a great half.

17 September 2018

Went for a run.
Plan was a fast 5K , to see where i am. Goal (estimation) was 30m(+-1).
Result was..... 27'54'' , HUGE MF  LIFETIME :personal-record: BY 36 SECONDS, FIRST TIME EVER UNDER 28'' , BLLAAAARRRGGHHHHH  :ibrunning: :ibrunning: :ibrunning: :ibsquatting: :ibjumping: :wowthatwasnutswtf: :headbang: :highfive:

Did the first 3km at around 90%buffer. When i saw i was at 5'35'' average at 3km, I knew i had to chase the PR and so i did. At the same time fatigue kicked in so the last 1,5km was @ 100%. However i found this new trick, like phasing out of the struggle, detaching from the body. Knowing and feeling the pain/fatigue , but somehow like watching it from above. Find the pace, follow it, ignore the pain. I have no idea if that make any sense and if i am describing it well, but it worked damn well.



great job man!!! huge PR. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

when's your 5k race again? sounds like you should put it in the upcoming competitions thread............ :ninja:

also, not entirely sure what the detaching feeling is. when i'm in pain/struggling, man is it brutal hah. even in races, i don't think i've ever been able to detach from it. What works best for me is going into it head on, accepting it, and accepting that it'll get worse, so more of just an acknowledgement while i'm running that this will feel horrible & won't get any better. lol. Sometimes when I mention that I "had no fight", that's basically what i'm referring to. When I don't have any fight, I just back off and don't battle it.

great that it worked so well, keep perfecting it on important runs!
