get them sunrise pics

never even saw the sun unfortunately.. really wanted to get a nice one. ended up just getting a storm photo, which is still cool. lol.

been raining so much around here lately.

pc!

morning

- warm up

- HIIT x 20 mins

- stretch

feels so good to work out in morning, especially as it gets cooler.

can't wait until it gets cooler here too.. still no sign yet lmao.

love the morning workouts as well .. bout to hit up a track before the sun is out, never did that before.. hopefully it's open.

damn dude. my right hip is red/itchy from those shorts. and after taking them off, i felt like i had "prickly" things all over my waist/groin.

had a bad reaction to the fabric maybe.. so weird.

beyond the fabric potentially F'n me up, they feel so awful.

truly shocked.

returning them tomorrow, might just try to get them to give me the same 30% discount i got on them, with a pair of shoes (endorphin racer 2). who knows.

mind blown.

RIP!!! red saucony shay xc4's = toast.. heel cushion broke after 1392 miles.

it's definitely more of a "half RDL", similar to how we have half squats. It could have it's place, and people are going to respond to lifts like this differently, so if it helps/feels like it's working, by all means I say go for it.

JUST MAKE SURE you take all of the ego out of it.. don't get caught up in the weight numbers for partial rom lifts like that, especially if the bar can get away from your body. If you feel anything weird in your historically "tweakable" back, kill the ego with fire and lower the weight. AELS. So all i'm saying here is, just pay more attention to safety with a lift like this, just like you would with a quarter squat for example.

you have been riding a beast mode wave for quite a while now, great stuff.

peace!!

some really good teams not making it .. netherlands (maybe?), chile definitely, argentina (maybe?).

TBH, i don't think the US not making it is some catastrophic thing.. man futbol is competitive. The US lost some close games. The US thinks we can dominate everything, expected to even be competitive at futbol, meanwhile US basketball lost in the olympics to Argentina several years ago. To me that is absolutely astonishing compared to US missing out on world cup.

The thing that needs to change I guess, is that our players need to play in europe/south america more, I think. MLS is cool but, home grown futbol success isn't going to happen on the level US fans/analysts expect, need to send players elsewhere. I wonder if the US could every create a team for one of these leagues overseas, and just have it operate like normal. I mean the schedules aren't as intense as say, NBA etc.. more like NFL football type of schedules. Could send teams back and forth. That'd be cool. That real madrid/manchester united game in MIAMI was awesome.

But ya, sucks that I won't be able to root on the US in world cup .. The US had some awesome matches last world cup.

i'm testing out "not eating" in the morning & trying to hit good times.. maybe i've previously been eating too much before races, making me more susceptible to cramps? I felt really good during the 2 mile run, but prior I did feel some hunger pains in my stomach, but I felt fast. I keep reading about so many elite runners also having to be very careful with what they eat the day before, and the morning before races, such as Kipchoge for example. So just trying to figure out what works best for me.. by doing these fasted runs in the morning, i've kind of uncovered that maybe I don't need "any" food in the morning. Not sure yet.

was going to do 2 x 1.5 mi but, just pouring etc, so during my 1.5 I just extended it to 2 mi and called it a day.

absolutely soaked, took my socks off, hope I won't regret it. bottom of big toe feels a little "rubbed down" but it's kind of already been like that, other foot feels fine. Actually felt great though during the run, without socks.







workout: evening light run: 1.4 mile walk, 4.65 miles light @ ~7:54 min/mi, no looking at watch

surprisingly consistent, felt good.

cut it short, wanted to take dogs out before the rain came

initially was getting ready to run in my new saucony endorphin compression shorts, but while walking in them, I literally went home and changed back into Nike.. The Saucony compression shorts feel really awful, returning them :/

Going to try and hit up the university track very early tomorrow morning, it re-opened recently!





saturday:
- afternoon = very light recovery
sunday:
- morning: race
- evening: light recovery
monday:
