another beautiful evening, although post daylight savings it's now dark by 5:30. on the plus side, the sunset tonight was awesome.

yesterday

- run 51:43, 9.76 km
ran the three km of continuous uphill in the park around 4:55 pace, just for fun. obviously rest of run was more relaxed. watch says HR averaged 180 for the whole run, which seems improbable.

i mean, overall cost of living is probably much higher where i live than where you live, so i'd expect some gap in cost. but still, $200 is highway robbery.

went to charlotte last weekend to visit my grandmother, didn't end up running at all. motivation has cratered since we decided that my fiancée was set back too far by her illness to make the 50 miler possible. i'm not interested in training for it by myself, part of the point was to spend all those training hours running together and she's only barely able to do slow 5ks right now, which is barely more than a brisk walk for me. i need a new race, or maybe to switch focus for a while. wish there were a gym in my neighborhood that didn't cost $200/month.

monday

- run 37:38, 5.83 km
glacial until the final half km or so, when i kicked it up to around half marathon pace (~4:19).

felt weirdly sluggish, pace reflects that. not sure why, maybe didn't eat enough yesterday?

not long enough to be a real training run. on the bright side, it's nice that i'm in good enough shape that a ten mile run is flat-out easy for me now. it should be, i kept pace down and watch HR reading averaged 130. but it felt short and i have no fatigue.

i'm sure you would, you were always a much better leaper than i am. no idea about kcal intake, i haven't tracked it in a long time. i have no trouble maintaining a constant bodyweight and bf%. i have had to put some effort into planning for and bringing enough calories with me on long runs, which is a work in progress. i am a little lighter and less muscular than my internal idea of an "ideal" body for myself - although my soon-to-be-wife disagrees  :highfive: - so someday i'll get back on the lifting train and probably have to put some thought into diet again. for now, cruising.

- intervals
-- warm up
-- 2 x (8 x 1 min 4:00-4:10 pace, 1 min slow jog) w/ 5 min jog between sets
-- cool down
a little faster than last time, still not hard to finish. was covering about 240-250m per interval but sped up just a bit for the last one and covered 280m. will keep ratcheting down the target pace a little at a time.
