Ummm Were gonna have to re-think this training. Crash n burn

So my legs are completely fried from training wt the Kenyan group last month uggg. Was debating about dropping out at mile 5. Ran my best races in my workouts last month and my legs haven't been the same after. Some 10-12 mile runs were faster than this. Just gonna run easy mileage for a while to reset my body now.

Nicolo Filippazzo I've run 65:00 pb. Was expecting to go sub 1:03:00 but I fried my self last month in Santa FE and ran my peak way to soon in my workouts. I literally jogged in last few miles uggg until next time though.

That's what happened in the gold coast marathon I think where one of the persons in third place looked at his watch and bailed. Don't know if kenyan.

damn!

yeah it's probably happened to everyone who uses a GPS watch, more so in training. In racing it's harder to quit, but in training, if you are expecting to have X session and you just aren't feeling it, your watch can provide you a way out.

i've learned about soo many people who were insanely fast in this area, it's crazy.

i mean this one old schooler even wrote this:

Quote
In 1996 I ran 16;44 and didn't even finish in the top 3 in my age group even after they took out the top 3 overall and top 3 masters. There wasn't as many races back then, so the quality showed up at the fast races. The heart run 10 k from holiday park was another super fast race from 1977 - mid 1985 there would be 5 guys sub 30.

5 guys sub30 for 10k.. wtf?

he's disgraced already. then again there are apparently two public schools named after nixon (!!!!!). obama's got 13 already.

http://time.com/4226561/president-richard-nixon-public-schools/

according to that article, nixon visited one of the schools in 1989 and the kids sang him "this land is your land," a left-wing protest song written in 1940, when nixon was a lawyer for petroleum companies in california.

Nah he's not disgraced, that's the problem. He's a disgrace, but he's not officially disgraced. Unless he is officially disgraced, his supporters & colleagues will re-write history & make it seem like he had the best presidency of all time. They'll erect monuments of him, name ships & schools after him, just make it seem like his presidency was a utopia. Meanwhile it's an absolute train wreck & the guy is batshit clueless watching fox news all day, shitting on our institutions and constitution.

The only thing that will somewhat fix this mess, at this point, is seeing him impeached. But Trump's done a good job at creating this whole deep state conspiracy and denigrating the FBI, war heroes, free press, career civil servants etc. Yea, a disgrace.

Other than Trump, it's hard for me to think of someone I actually hate. I legitimately hate him.

And fuck his mile race.

Donald J. Trump Fifth Avenue Mile. wonder if anyone will name anything after him ever again.

ya lol. i joked with the guy who sent me the photo, who is probably a repub but not much of a trump fan. i said it was probably 200m short to inflate times, or a russian money laundering operation. whatever, i lol'd.

and i doubt it & hope not. his photo will be in schools/all over though, and shit will be named in his honor, unless he's "brought down" & disgraced. hoping for the latter.

They didn't run with GPS watches..

I've been wondering how it's possible, that everyone has gotten so much slower in our area, across the board. I'm really starting to think it has to do with technology.

They could train with stop watches etc, but when it came to racing -> they had to just race. They had to go by feel. The only feedback they'd get would be from possible mile markers with the time on it etc. Other than that, no instant feedback. Nothing to tell them they were going "too fast", or "too slow" etc.

It just doesn't make sense how this same area, could be considerably faster in the 80's, 90's, and early 2000's, and then just (generally) become so much slower 2010+. The same "old people" are still beating all of the young people.

I was told there's also many more races, which dilutes the overall race pool. So that's definitely a factor as well.

But, this idea about tech interests me because, even today, I felt like crap, looked at my watch midway through my mile, was doing ok but just felt like crap, and bailed. Had I just kept running by feel, I might have finished it off. The watch basically was my "out", for whatever reason. And at times, in races, you see your pace and you think, "damn this is too fast". Some of my better races have come without look at my watch at until much later in the race, or not at all.

Elites aren't constantly checking their watches in races either. Most Kenyans still refuse to look at their watch or even wear one. Some are "required" to wear one for the coaches/team to gather data, but they themselves aren't even looking at it during a session. Tech can be amazing, it can help push you forward, but it can also hold you back.

dno just interesting.

really dead today .. decent speed but absolutely dead.

says I hit 19.8 mph on my last interval, doesn't look too "off" but I doubt it. maybe I hit 18.x mph, really doubt I hit 19.8 mph. 19.8 mph would be a *massive* PR.
