the last 0.1 said 0.17 for me. felt like it too based on the mile markers.

good stuff. great event with a great cause.

the guy on a bike who was leading me through the course stopped midway up the hill, he was like F that. lol.

also since this was the first ever MPS Superhero 5k, I have the course record! *trollface*

some little kid lead us out at the start .. he was running pretty fast I was impressed. He was moving for ~300m.

I thought this was going to be a completely flat 5k.. lol'd up the hill.

eventually started pushing the pace up the hills. fun stuff.

will post more later but,

official 18:05 (long by ~0.7 mi I think): http://www.splitsecondtiming.com/results/2018/mps2018.php

17:43 unofficial! new 5k PR by 7s.
- https://www.strava.com/activities/1433966749

5:37, 5:48 (hill at 1.5 which took me into the low 6's), 5:43, 0.17 @ 5:21.

Felt like I was in all splits sub-5:40 today.. crazy. The first 5:37 was very easy, relaxing/effortless easy.

ran the whole thing solo too .. that's why the 5k itself was easy .. just ran at a steady pace, no one to battle with etc.

also, while doing my middle-long run after, hundreds of people at the park running/sprinting hills etc.. like this:

btw:

Bingtian just PB'd & hit 6.42 for 60m, second to Coleman:

just going to try and get top 3 in this 5k, then do a long run on the hills at the same park. 5k course is flat I think.

went to a tableau "mini convention" / meetup today .. turned out to be pretty fun. volunteered to be a judge for some data visualization contest.

got a nice coffee mug out of the deal:



here's a photo of me w/ the mic - laughing, lol:



also.. surprised how many beautiful af women were at this thing. interesting. smart as hell too, talked to a few. ehehe.

My waking HR was 109. It's been high since weds night. Im going to go see a doctor

Good idea mate. Best to get it checked. What's your resting HR?

it's between 50 and 70 now. but long story short i had to go to hospital (gp send me there) b/c there was a problem with my heart shown on the ECG, showed a flutter pattern. GP called me an ambulance and i spent a night at the hospital. Magically my heart went into sinus in the morning and they discharged me that day. Im on beta blockers and blood thinners now so i cant play contact sport anymore. No basketball for 5 months. Cardiologist wants to do an ablation. Im not sure i want that but he knows better i guess. so idk. never had surgery before.. bit scary.

wtf. fuck man.

as for cardiac ablation etc -> 2nd & 3rd opinions for sure.

I've had some pretty scary heart palpitations as well, but 3 years ago, before I quit that job that had me pulling all nighters & just stressful af.. I'd try going to sleep and my heart would be racing, felt like I was going to have a heart attack. Happened quite frequently towards the end, thought I was going to die. Unlike you (i'm not as smart), I didn't go to the doc or anything, instead I just quit my job ehh. I mean it helped, haven't had those symptoms since I "recovered" from that environment (I imagine some damage was done though). But I have had some weird heart stuff throughout my life. One thing I get on occasion is that massive "jolt": like out of nowhere, usually when lying down/resting, a massive jolt. I went to a few docs when I was younger to figure it out, they said I was fine but they didn't really do much investigation other than a few scans/tests. I personally don't think that's very normal, but who knows. I haven't had one of those in a while, but last week I had one. Only way I can explain it is, probably a shock from one of those AED devices. ehh. Btw, i've also had crazy high waking HR's, even when being in great condition. In fact, if i'm going to have a racing HR now, it'd most likely be in the morning after getting TOO MUCH sleep. It feels as if my body is 'forcing me to wake up'. Doesn't happen often though.

Anyway, really **hoping** you don't have to get any operations or anything like that. Who knows, the stuff you're experiencing right now could be related to other factors, and once those are addressed, might not need an op .. that's why i'd get a few opinions first. I mean, i'd personally want to figure out if it's potentially the caffeine or some other supplementation you're taking, or work/life/stress etc before getting an op, but obviously you'd want the help of some docs to figure that out -> not just do it on your own.

peace man!
