24 hours here now in #Warsaw. Reflecting how fortunate I am to be in my position. I was born into a situation that many do not succeed from, born and raised my first part of my childhood in southeast #Fresno, CA. Raised off the government, section 8 housing, welfare, wic the whole 9 yards. Father a heroin addict in and out of prison for over 20 years and continuing on this minute. The people I admired and looked up to where not the typical productive citizens of society....I was heading down the wrong path. Even though my mother had a 9th grade education, she still did what she could and moved me to a better part of our city (Clovis, CA), a place where I can grow up in peace. Nothing was handed to me and I still struggled growing up, but I worked really hard in my running and never gave up. I would not be the fastest at all in my school until 16 years old. By the time I was 24 years old I started to be noticed by the running world. 12 years later I am still traveling the world and doing what I love, racing. I have ran for 26 years and even though I am not rich monetary wise, I have fulfilled my dream by traveling the world and racing for a living. Making life long friends everywhere I go ❤️❤️❤️. Whatever is in your heart, it can come true. Keep grinding. Get what you know you are worth. Don’t ever let anyone label you. You can do it. With ❤️from 🇵🇱. .

he's interesting.. it's like he went straight from H.S. into the pros, skipping college etc, to try and make it/make money etc. I mean his stats are insane and he didn't run in college (i don't think).

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: Age vs Vertical

Sooo, my dad had some heart issues and i had to be at my hometown all week. Thankfully everything went fine. Back on track today.

damn man :/ scary stuff. so glad to hear everything is fine though.

^ Thanks! Very much agree, their aging and the closing gap of the inevitable is something we need to work well in our minds, makes us use our time together better.

yup. I think about "time" alot more now.

i've thought about those things since I was a kid, too often IMHO .. for some reason I feel it could be somewhat related to growing up in an elderly community.

Workout

Run -- 4.75mi in 46:54

Threw in like 5 strides.

Notes

Worst run ever! Felt totally dead, called it short because of this. Clearly am not at all recovered from Sunday yet. Focus now is making sure I am by Friday. Blarg.

~50% of this run was done on grass, at least, which was nice.

Don't know why this should be so much worse than Monday's run. Eep.

Edit: as day goes on upper and and more sore. This probably contributed to crappy run, but my legs also felt wrecked so it's not just that

sux but, don't worry about it. just a sign you need more recovery. it's probably a good thing that your body shut you down & you ended the run early .. another day of rest, then boom Friday crush it. sometimes sh*t run days really help hah.

Yup, trying to stay optimistic! Not like any running I could do this week would result in fitness gains by Friday anyway. Best thing is big rest.  :headbang:

yup. you'll crush it on friday. that bad run was still a recovery day, rebounding out hard for Friday!
