Those are sick. This reminds me that i need to pickup a new pair of sprint spikes for summer plans.

ooooh???

hard speed day. shit warmup, rained out basically. still got some work done.

got my proj oregon hoodie. feels great. quality.

hamstring insertion felt fine during the hard speed .. felt it a bit prior during the warmup. felt it a little later tonight when flexing my knee deliberately, fucking with it. lame. iced it hard.

if i could get that to disappear by thursday, i'll be very happy.

absolutely shit warmup. rushed.

should rebound nicely for thursday .. pretty wrecked today and still fast.

they "tried" to kick me off during my 1km .. but i just kept running. so they locked me in (I could have just hopped a fence). funny. all good.





no stretching, running, or anything in the lead up to thursday. just going to eat good, do nothing, and recover.

should be flying on thursday.. couldn't hit a high gear today during this hard speed workout, but still ran pretty fast.

what i'm realizing with accumulated fatigue running is, once i accumulate, i lack the extra gears. It happened in my last mile race. Didn't take any days off prior, couldn't kick at all. Had no speed. Felt like I could keep that 5:06 going for longer.

I think that's why my two day rest protocol works so well. I just force myself to recover/rebound from all of that fatigue I create, because i'm "over zealous". So it ends up working out, similar to dunking.

We'll see Thursday though... If my 2-day rest protocol works like it should, I should drop a mile PR out of nowhere.

2 day rest races, big PR's:
#1 coral springs mile: 4:58
#2 boca 5k: 17:55
#3 vista view relay?
#4 boca 10k: 37:14
#5 coral springs half: 1:21:40
#6 ficpa 5k: 17:35
#7 duval street mile: ???

i'm def curious. I haven't dropped PR level 1 mile workouts.. but, if my 2 day rest works + my rebound effect works, should be able to PR it since i'm still fairly close to sub5 in general (5:06 road, 5:05 grass).

gn!

brooks hyperion is a racing flat, no? you know you love lightweight shoes when 6.4 ounces is "heavier" than what you're used to! 

ya lol. hyperion is one of the lightest long distance racing flats around, and it feels heavy af to me. no idea how people run fast in these kinds of shoes. truly boggles my mind.

Ordered a pair of those last week, expecting them by Friday:

Pretty fast and light for a boost shoe. Was tempted about racing flats / minimal shoes but I want my cushion, running when you are above 40yo and 190lbs demands that lol.

This is the specific color i chose, well to be accurate this specific color was off 50% so it was easy to choose them :

nice!!

you love that boost.

get some minimalist shoes if you have an area of nice hard packed grass/dirt around good way to go minimalist but have more protection due to the softer surface.
