I felt like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator, before the epic battle, muddy af.

the data looks pretty cool. you can see the oscillations due to the muddiest spots in the loop. can't believe i even hit 5:31 pace at the end, felt so weird, hah.







^^ great session

local runner, long history on athlinks, mostly long distance. some really nice marathon times.

he's really beast. he's like 51 now, had brain tumor/surgery last year, and is still dropping 19:XX 5k's mostly, with an occasional sub19. every time I see him on the out&back courses, man he's pushing himself so hard. he's tough as nails it seems.
