Just a small clip. I love it, especially because it's "words during a press conf" by LEBRON.

Totally unrelated to your journal but I've been watching 'Last Chance U' on Netflix, which is a football documentary about players from East Mississippi Community College and there was a player called John Franklin III who used to play football for Florida State University (FSU) and was also part of their track team. Anyway I'm not sure if it's the same guy but there's a John Franklin on All Athletics and he ran a 5km in 15:03  :o

that's a pretty ridiculous stat line.. just odd to see the 5000m thrown in there. maybe an error lmao? I mean you'd expect to see some 1500's, 3k, as well, etc.

if it's legit, that's a crazy range of speed .. goals++

man low-7's is a *run* for me. lot of work to do to catch up to where you're at. i'm avoiding joining strava because i spend enough time on social media as it is, so i'm just chasing your training instead.

 :ibrunning:

yeah, adarq just dropped pretty much a casual 1:40 half on a "light" run, that's good shit for anyone.

hah! thanks man!

ya I wanted to keep it going, but lights out + grass = have to slow way down or stop.. too risky. There's lots of little ditches etc, which I actually like, but not if I can't see them.

also I was holding my phone the entire time (bad decision to bring it), and wore my big knife instead of little one, dug into my hip so bad, was annoying. I brought the phone to prevent me from hitting too fast of paces, but, just felt good so kept the pace reasonable.

I need to get to ~6:0X for 13.1 by March 24th............... :D :ibrunning: :ibrunning: :ibrunning:

lots of work to do.

man low-7's is a *run* for me. lot of work to do to catch up to where you're at.

hah. ya. you're taking the gradual approach, which is what I did initially as well. I think it's working good. Easing into it is important. The key, just like anything else, is consistency.

also remember, my 2nd best 5k was the first week I got my garmin watch, that was like 2 years ago. I should be able to crush that now but, just interesting.

I'm naturally better at running "slow/moderate" for a long time, I think. I mean now i'm realizing that all I have to do is be able to hit like, 6:00 for 26.2 and I could possibly win the Miami Marathon, wtf? That's now on my road map :D One thing I know i'm "gifted at", is doing something simple for a very long time. That's also a reason you historically told me to do ultra's etc, which i'm not sure if you noticed in a previous post, i'll be doing one next year :D That 6 hour race.

so ya, time to integrate all of the components: speed, distance etc.

 :ibrunning:

totally understand that. strava is really great though. IMHO, i'd join. Even if it's just following me/Joe/Coges etc. Joe/I post more workouts, Coges will eventually :D

it's much less of a time waster .. I rarely check it. People aren't chatting on there much etc, just workouts being synced automatically, a few "kudos" (thumbs up), and an occasional comment etc.

That's my favorite running site by far. I follow like ~50 people or so, and it doesn't distract me/take up much time at all.

my 2 cents :D

plus there's an adarq.org run squad (group), with no photo for the avatar!! :trollface: :trolldance:

Watching the highlights, my first ever nfl game when I am rooting for a team.

I like how they run and manouvre and touch down so exciting. The eagles when it's their turn to throw they hold the ball for long time and the team sometimes do good job in stopping people getting to him especially that 21 point touch down. one guy was arms reach away but could not reach lol.

Eagles ftw

Need to learn the rules

EDIT: Found this nice tutorial. Funny to see the number of yellow flags being thrown in.

Superbowl is already almost here Eagles vs Patriots. Comeon Eagles

it's cool that you enjoy it.

Eagles/Pats should be solid .. hope Brady & the Pats heal up a bit more, going to be tough for them if they are still really banged up. Eagles are no joke this year.

the athleticism on the field can be absolutely mindblowing. It's a very brutal game, glad they are cleaning it up a bit.

vikings/saints game was one of the best i've ever watched.

the play to end the game is up there with the greatest moments in sports i've ever seen. jaw. dropped. incredible.

NFL playoffs = mind blowing as always.

my family and i were driving home from new hampshire during most of this game. by pure coincidence, we stopped to get dinner with 3:00 to go and it was on a little tv in the corner of the rest stop. we got our sandwiches and watched through the end. great timing. what a finish.

damn. and ya man, i'm glad I saw that. will never forget that, just like i'll never forget the "music city miracle".

NFL playoffs/superbowl has some of the most insane finishes.

FWIW, Lebron's "BLOCK" and Kyrie's 3 to beat GSW ranks up there with some of the NFL finishes i've seen.
