took a screenshot of KENYA vs USA (marathon 2018) a few days ago:

I imagine half marathon would be even more nuts.

Been seeing my fellow #teamusa athletes posting pictures with them in their 🇺🇸 uniforms so I’m joining in 😛. Seriously though, this country is not perfect, I am not so proud of some actions. I’ve gotten to see the world and it made me think more of where I live. There are places in this world where people feel like they don’t exist. There are no opportunities, no hope. As racist and unfair this country could seem to be and I have shared these very thoughts, these photos i am positing remind me that it’s not just that. I came from the bottom, grew up my whole childhood life 0-17 years old on welfare as my mother was a single parent “no education” and father in prison. My whole family roots are from Mexico. I certainly didn’t have positive role models growing up to make me wanna be successful, it was actually the opposite. I come from a certain area where the a good majority of Hispanic males will be gang bangers...in prison, dead, or end up homeless on the streets from drug addiction. Now where I am getting at is, this country still gave me....ME....opportunities to be somebody, to travel the world, to follow my dreams. I am still following my dreams at 36 years old. This country has not stopped me because of my background, or stopped me because I have had family members in trouble with the law. There are opportunities for all of us, I am proof. Today, of all days made it more clear. I am proud to be an American! I will continue to be positive and keep working hard, showing that hard work does pay off. Doesn’t matter where you come from, what you look like...it might not be easy, but you can achieve anything. Happy 4th of July. #contodo #cabadats #hardworkpaysoff

dude needs his own thread eventually...

missed a great race this morning, bummer. :/ knew it was going to be fast. saturday's morning race could have been nearly as fast, historically it's very fast.

look at all of these young dudes... stacked.

also, top female is no joke. that young girl is going to make these road races around here very competitive again. she's girls athlete of the year down here or something too.

I also def fit in that category of being a ghost, I would have to go out of my own way to socialize and that itself is difficult for me.

as ever, i draw the training-conditions line at "active thunderstorm." it's been going on for 90 minutes, i'm wiped out, calling it.

fawk.

this book im reading says Zatopek (olympian) once ran in his tub for 2 hours, because he couldn't get a workout in (due to weather). not saying you should do that at all, just figured i'd mention it because some people are absolute psychos. I wouldn't do that... lol.

found somewhat of the story online:

Quote

Encouraged, he redoubled his efforts over the following winter. He would run at night, carrying a torch. He would strap weights to his feet and then go cycling. He would make a cut-price treadmill by putting a layer of wet clothes at the bottom of his bath and running on them, one part athlete, one part washing machine. He ran in heavy army boots and embraced rain, ice and snow. “There is a great advantage in training under unfavourable conditions,” he said. “It is better to train under bad conditions, for the difference is then a tremendous relief in a race.”

Due to irritating low back pains even though I don't have anterior pelvic tilt I have decided to do a lower back strengthening workout everyday, just the regular stretch and exercises.

I was playing tennis yesterday and it was difficult because of low back pain, not debilitating sore but irritating pain.

i.e.
cobra prone stretch
sole to sole of feet glute bridges
single leg glute bridge variant
superman/snow angel variant movement
superman arms at side variant

all 10 reps of 10 sec each movement.

prone alternating superman & high rep "safe" 45-deg back extensions (not "HYPER") were my goto's for back pain.

i've been contemplating getting a 45deg hyper again, in my mind, for like 6 months now..... ;/ really miss it.

You work extremely hard and have a lot of dedication. You are more of a loner type: you are clearly not doing this as a social thing. I think most people can't connect or understand that and they incorrectly deduce that you are doing it for recognition so they intentionally withold it from you.

that's an interesting perspective.

i mean if I perceived someone as doing something solely for recognition, i'd probably be careful not to over-supply it. I'd def give credit where credit is due though. So I guess if someone had that perception of me, could make sense. I'd be surprised if *alot* of people had that perception of me though.. i'm pretty much a ghost who shows up to races and tries to beat everyone - LMAO.

Quote

And people also dislike what is outside their understanding, making them less likely to try to connect with or reward you for your efforts.

That's been a somewhat common theme. I mean, throughout my life, people always think i'm "mysterious" (irl, work, school etc). I'm really not, i'm very open/transparent about things hah. I mean this forum as an example, some of my social media accounts. I don't go do "social things" though, for the most part. If I do, it's me dragging myself to do it, almost like a be-normal exercise.

def a loner type. I usually get "derailed" a bit when I stop embracing it.

Quote

Just keep doing you man.

of course. hah!

ya i'm good. love being a ghost. just need to win more, because winning is fun! hah.

pc!
