so apparently Mo hammered the pace early.. 4:22 opening mile.

only one that ended up sticking with him by the end was Jake, but Mo blew the lead open with 2 miles to go.

59:26 for Mo....... massive run, 3s shy of his pb. He's fit as fu*k going into Chicago (October).

Jake joined the sub60 club (59:57).

khan vs samuel vargas

Disappointed that khan got chin checked again, the glass jaw, he still has not learned his lesson from the previous knockouts. But still won a fight by UD. samuel vargas was not really that good but he is a brawler who can take a lot of shots to the face. like a proper mexican brawler. But lacked the boxing skills and defence.

damn! can't learn chin.

will watch the garcia vs porter fight

You can check out the twitter page for @DAZN_USA they have the entire event uploaded on twitter.

garcia/porter should be good!

tbh i'd like garcia to win. don't enjoy watching porter, he makes fights so messy/mauling/holding style.

garcia has some solid power, hope he catches porter :D

Definitely agree with you there. porter is definitely a messy fighter and he brawls and hopes on his messy style to bring him out on top. If garcia can be composed and smart and just pick his shots he can get porter out of there, but you have to becareful of headbutts with porter's style. like his fight with brook, bone (or something like that don't remember the name) but he never wins convincingly he gets into a brawl and hopes to come out on top.

hope garcia wins.

fight about to start!

garcia leggo

2017 CS 5k:

^^ tons of PR's at the time.. hah.



pretty similar:

2018 (top) vs 2017






2018 (top) vs 2017







crazy.. :D

actually ran better (way easier) today. 2017 was a battle, pushed myself to the limit. today i ran "comfortable" because of the ear b.s.

kinda cool.

sad that it had to end like that.. what a mess :/

to me, the 2nd/3rd violations were justified.. but, it's all based on that first violation (coaching instructions), which was absolute bullshit.

first, the chair should have simply warned both sides (& perhaps coaches as well). To give Serena a violation like that at such a critical time, without warning, is absolute garbage. That caused Serena to "lose it". ie, "here we go again".

very unfortunate, especially for Osaka.. she played incredible. She looked really distraught over how it turned out :/

never saw anything like that in tennis.. other than maybe serena being ejected after the "threat".. but this was pretty unique, especially because of the fan/crowd reactions.

was painful to watch.

JAKE vs Mo

the rematch, tomorrow!

Great North Run!

going to be sick. I predict Jake will drop the hammer early, try to hurt everyone early, no comfort, all pain. If he executes that, he'll get his sub60 half & beat Mo. Should be a great race.

serena gets some "coaching violation" .. then breaks her racquet, gets another violation, automatic point deduction, then goes off on the chair.

lots of stuff happens to serena in tennis.

no idea if she received instructions or not from her coach, but i'd take her word for it that she didn't. she was adamant that she didn't receive any instructions. she demanded an apology from the chair. kinda crazy.

she just got broken afterwards, hope she can get back in this :/

just feeling around in my calves lightly .. I already knew this but, left medial gastroc is basically a problem, it's way tighter than my right medial gastroc.

But, digging into it lightly, it's crazy painful compared to my right .. my calves in general feel fine, except for my left medial gastroc. painful as fu*k.

gn!

just found this while searching back in my journal... crazy how that flipped to my right soleus/gastroc. lmao.

the extra rest lately is doing me some good. right calf/soleus feels alot better. left gastroc tweak this week disappeared completely after 2 days rest.

good sign. going to keep resting more. though I love running 2x/day 7d/wk, I also love getting faster/running healthy, need to make sure the latter has priority over the former, which seems to require more rest for me, i mean i'm 36 not 20, could have something to do with it who knows. old injuries *never* disappear. they just go hidden for a while and then come back when you over-work/do something stupid. so have to be careful.

- 2nd OA @ 18:04 official / 17:50 estimated (this course is long)
- actually felt pretty good
- couldn't hear myself breathe, which was good & bad
- didn't go with 1OA, wanted too but, just had no idea how i'd run so, didn't battle.. :/
- should have kicked harder at the end.
- ran in a jersey .. wanted to stay cooler
- ran pretty decent -> haven't done any 5k-ish training for like 2 weeks.. just speed this week, and still dropped this at a lighter effort than usual. strength is key for me. makes everything easier. must continue to focus on bumping my 1RM up (1km/1mile), that's what makes me strong.

basically the same time/splits as last year, also the same overall placing. last year's race was November 18th tho.

funny, it's pretty much an identical performance.

hope my ear unclogs soon, driving me nuts. barely being able to hear myself breathe was kinda interesting though.












TODO: post comparison from last year (i remember it's so similar)





08:00 PM: workout: light + speed + strength (road, deaf ear): 1h:27m @ {speed: 0.31mi/515m, 1:27 / 4:31 min/mi / 13-14 mph} + {strength: lunges, 400 yd in 15:36} :: legs completely toast after those lunges

- speed: 0.31 mi / 515m @ 1:27 / 4:31 min/mi / 13-14 mph
- strength: lunges, 400 yd in 15:36

legs spazzing out as i walked home.. heh.

have to be careful with lunges obviously .. bringing them back because i'm resting more. the 1 thing that scares me when i do them is, sometimes i feel it in that left knee patella area that i injured last year. need that to not flare up.

yikes man, that is gross and a little frightening. i do think a walk-in clinic is probably worth checking out, but if your experiences have been so shitty i don't blame you for not wanting to go.

ya. thanks man. im going to "tough it out" a bit, as long as there's no pain. upon waking up today, improved from say 95% deaf to 92% deaf, so some improvement.

id like to see if i can fix this myself.

i dont see how it can be anything other than wax issues.

only time i can remember going into one was to get some stitches out a few years ago and the doctor was unbelievably hot, lol. if i'd been single i would have asked her out.

hah. damn.

unbelievably hot doctor =  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

i could never imagine asking out a doctor while in a doctor/patient setting like that. i mean i know you could pull it off, but for me, seems so awkward. lmao.
