on the jump rope are you just doing simple turns or are you doing any tricks or side-to-sides?

DOMS does not equal injury. if you feel truly injured that's one thing but if it's just soreness, suck it up and try again.

OTOH, be careful as you transition to barefoot-ish running. it really does completely change your gait, and therefore the way that you use your muscles and joints. you're better off starting with really low volume, doing start-stop runs (i.e. jog a bit, walk a bit), and building up very gradually.

good question, and you know, not really. i've read lots of different kinds of books and haven't really been looking for differences. some of the best books i've read in the past year have been by women, though, in different genres:

- ghettoside, by jill leovy (reportage about the neglect by police and the courts of violent crime in black communities in LA)
- gilead, by marilynne robinson (Serious Novel)
- the talented mr. ripley, by patricia highsmith (fun thriller)
- the warmth of other suns, by isabel wilkerson (history of the great migration)
- wolf hall, by hilary mantel (read for the second time, one of the best novels i've ever read)

internet died a couple of days ago, hence the journaling gap. was out too late last night at a halloween party but i didn't drink much (4 beers over the course of 5 hours) so on balance not too much harm done. will go out again tonight but probably not stay out so late and continue to keep the booze moderate.

in non-fitness news: i read a lot -- at least 20 books a year since college and usually more than 25 -- but i counted up last august and realized that only 25% or so of the books i'd read over the previous 4+ years were by women. no good excuse for that, so i decided to read nothing but women for the rest of the year and afterward try to keep the balance 50/50. i've read 47 books since then (35 in 2015 so far) and 28.5 of them are by women. just picked up 48 and 49, both by women. good job, me.

countermovement jump is just a full-speed SVJ. as opposed to a paused jump or a squat jump (with your hands on your head or otherwise not moving).

not adarq, but science-based medicine is the first place i look when i have questions like that. https://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/evaluating-milk-and-its-substitutes/

Quote
Soy milk was one of the earliest milk substitutes. Soy comes closest to real milk from a nutritional perspective, and some are fortified with vitamins to closely mimic real milk. Soy contains alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid too, but if you’re not a vegan, you’d be better off eating other omega-3 sources. The relationship between soy and cancer is unclear.

...

If you enjoy drinking milk, there’s no convincing evidence to suggest you’re doing your body badly. If you’re consuming milk strictly for the perceived health benefits, then it’s fine to omit it from your diet. Milk isn’t magical and it isn’t poison. The same applies to the milk substitutes. If you want a milk-like beverage to drink, then there are lots of choices, and you can probably find one that you find palatable and is also fortified to deliver many of the nutritional benefits of regular milk.

i used to rock vivobarefoot leather shoes, like as work shoes, until i realized that i was an adult and should dress like one at work.

the sneaks always looked cool, though, how are they on concrete?

SLEEP
6 hours, stayed up too late finishing a book that i couldn't put down (room, by emma donoghue). on the plus side i finally slept to my alarm at 7:30. jet lag has been way worse this week than any previous time i can remember coming east-to-west.
