easy day.
post-run: my left medial hamstring insertion/tendon-whatever acting kind of jacked up .. that old injury, felt sharp a few times. lame. lame. lame. it has been "clicking" since I wrecked my adductors last week. so magically today, on an easy run, it decides to become sharp? the saga continues.
edit: ^^ My posture today was really tall when I was trotting. Felt GREAT. Could have slowly pulled that tight area apart a bit.
I love how my dog is like, "sup bro?"

I passed the mile 1 marker at 4.58 lmfao, but it was short (or my watch was wrong, i'll go with it being short). I was like holy shit. i didnt know it was short, wasnt looking at my watch during the race. figured id finally transformed into a Kenyan... lol. not yet.
Saw someone I knew who was pretty fast, but I had beaten fairly easy a year ago. He went out really fast, so I was wondering if he was going out way too hard, or if he was in better shape. After 400m or so, I correctly analyzed that he was in better shape! haha. He ran a really good race. He pushed it hard. I separated a little by mile 2, and then started to push it harder by 2.5, which got me some space. He finished with 17:55. It was fun, he's a really great dude.
As for the confusion: there was a huge bus blocking our view up ahead for the rest of the course, and a car erroneously coming down our way with cops trying to stop it etc, and our "pacer/leader" on the bike disappeared. So we were like wtf? discussing if either knew if we had to keep going or turn etc. seems like this kind of stuff happens alot hehe. Stuff like that does suck though, definitely ruins your rhythm. Need to get better at handling stuff like that, without breaking my stride. Seems almost impossible though. Confusion makes you slow.
On to mile race prep!
I have a big mile race on April 26!!! Going to try and be as fresh/fast as possible for it. It's 4 hours away sooooo... Can't go out there wasting my time. Need to bring it.

Workout
Run -- 4.05mi in 35:15
Notes
Started out real easy and warmed up very thoroughly beforehand. Hip flexor feels totally fine, which is great.
damn that's good news.
Quote
Legs felt quite tired, I guess really they're just now slightly un-used to running, I'm sure by the end of this week I'll be back in the flow.
Might go check out a yoga class later today. Edit: gonna hold off for a week on this actually, let body get used to running again before adding an extra stimulus
yogiJoe. nice.

Ran in high 60s weather and am dripping with sweat, haha, gonna get into the 70s this week.
so crazy, i wouldn't sweat at all in 60's. lmao!!

« on: April 17, 2018, 03:52:25 pm »Man Jean pascal is tough. I watched this after watching his fight with hopkins part 2. He did well in this fight against kovalev, mabe ref jumped in too early as he didn't give him a chance to try defend himself but he probably would have lost any way later on in the fight.<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dalmo1T5__A" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dalmo1T5__A</a>
ya that was an exciting fight. Pascal always does better when he gets hurt, he's a warrior. I think it was a good stop though, he looked lifeless.

The poet Auden narrated this documentary about the runner Bruce Kidd. It's a pretty gorgeous film.
how did you find this gem? that was excellent.
reading old posts on a lit website, haha! was shocked to see it there
