bitter was almost exactly at 7'/mile pace. that means the 100-mile world record was run at sub-7' pace. that is bonkers.

back from holidays in connecticut. lovely times, tons of great food (and a bit of great drink, too -- my aunt and uncle who we were staying with are serious gourmets, both the best cooks i know and the only people i know with a purpose-built wine cellar in their house). worked out with my cousin last thursday and took a couple of medium-length but pretty hilly walks. otherwise it was mostly just good family time. will weigh myself post-workout later but i'd guess i gained 3-4 pounds.
starting today, i'm going to work out based off a template t0ddday sent me. not gonna copy-paste the whole thing here, but in essence it's a three-week block including jump training 3-4x/week, heavy weights 2-3x/week, and light weights up to every day, followed by a one-to-two-week block where the heavy weights are dropped and PRs are attempted. will also be at a modest weekly caloric deficit but keeping protein high, aiming to be very lean and in the low-to-mid 160s during the second block.
also, i bought a weight vest and am going to wear it most waking moments for the next three weeks, including during workouts.
ETA: just read t0ddday's last journal post. suffice it to say i will never be attempting 300 ME jumps in a five-day period. also i'll keep close tabs on my knees.

Nature, Wilderness, Hiking, Travel, and Misc Outdoorsy stuff / Re: Random landscape of the day
« on: December 22, 2015, 01:25:30 pm »Makes me think of Minecraft for whatever reason, lol
I wonder what's up with the human fascination with landscapes?
I heard someone claim that men like unconquered (virgin) land for the same reason they like single women. The original is a bit more sexist but I modified it...
Maybe we see land that hasn't been claimed by any man and imagine coming up on that beauty for ourselves. For me a landscape or beach at night or any of these things just remind me of the size of things and how small I am in the world which is comforting...
i don't buy the first at all. i do buy the second, that is huge for me.
