Mens 10k final is today in an hours time.

I can probably post a link to the video of the race after it has happened today.

niice!! if you find it online sure link it, thanks!  :ninja: :ninja: :ninja:

just saw some of it from Zane's IG stories (he was recording his tv)

damn Jake got 5th @ 27:31 or something, but was right there up until the last lap or so I think.

Cheptegei got it as suspected. He's that dude now.

set a national record though. wonder if he'll file the paperwork this time.  ::)

ha.

He eventually got the national record for the marathon tho. He just seemed like he didn't want to follow the process.. which is fine, he's an athlete. He shouldn't give much of a fu*k about that stuff. Nike & such (his sponsors/agents) should handle all of that for him and just send him something to sign perhaps, that's it. It seemed he was also annoyed that the previous record holder didn't reach out to him, so he probably felt NZ was trying to snub him. NZ knows better tho, can't snub this dude, he's only going to get better.

He also got that national 10k road record for NZ with his 27:26 a few weeks ago, I think.

kewl. sounds like something one would do naturally if pushing the on paces. ie, i'm sure i've done this exact fartlek before, naturally. seems very natural to me.

*The namesake: The workout was made famous by Aussie Steve Moneghetti, Bronze Medalist at the World Champs Marathon in 1997 among other hardware. Athletes around the world who race 1500 meters up to the marathon do the #Moneghetti to build endurance and develop speed at the same time. Knowing what a Moneghetti is pretty much makes you a hard core running fan, so that just happened.

Joe got me excited about this shoe yesterday. However, they don't make it anymore & can't find it on Ebay/Amazon etc in my size.

Thanks alot Joe!!

Shoe looks amazingly fast. I'd love to try that shoe.. so sick. Fu*k shoe companies that stop making awesome shoes (New Balance, Mizuno).

Tomorrow is definitely a rest day, and I might also take Sunday off depending on how this hip flexor thing recovers.

Oof, since returining from this run the right hip-flexor thing has become pretty painful, fuuucck.

Okay, weekend off then probably only easy running next week? Too much too soon, ya goof.

ah damn that sucks about the hip flexor. fu*k!!!

edit: also, try not to mess with it. stretching it too much etc might only make it worse.

http://nateruns.blogspot.co.uk/2016/12/my-current-training-plan.html

Nate Jenkins' general fitness/half-marathon plan. Must follow suit in adding more "muscle work" again. Can only help form and hopefully reduce injury proneness. Lessons to be learned even if it takes way more fitness than I have to be able to sustain this much work overall.

damn that's a serious schedule, elite volume/frequency, but ya he is a beast so..

as for the "muscle work", I love getting my bodyweight stuff in. it's definitely not as muscly as we're used to, but I do feel it helps (the single leg abductions/flexions/extensions especially). I'd like to do lunges again but i'd have to do them in a separate session I think. Doing them after I run seemed to inflame my knee & just make me too prone to soreness.

so ya just phase some of that stuff back in slowly if you do, or time it intelligently, ie when you're about to have 2 full days off from running because of schedule etc, then eventually on days where you're going to have one full day of rest before running again etc.

pc!!

worth watching for the run addicts.. beautiful footage.

Rupp is such an incredible runner .. Kemei was most surprising though, he pushed it hard, massive PR's. Basically put himself on the map with this race.

Really nice tactics to watch also, between Kemei/Rupp etc.

saw a couple of canadian buddies last night who love the raptors. they're terrified of the wiz just because the raptors are every bit as much the classic late-season/playoff heartbreakers that the wizards are. who will collapse less completely? tune in to find out.

hah. ya TOR can be a let down post-season but maybe not this year. They seem to have really come together. I think this is the year they win the East, then lose to the West in the finals.
