Gardiner looked good.. he went out FAST for 300m.

Gardiner vs WVN, the big show?

Still don't see anyone beating WVN though  :ninja:

WVN looked ridiculous @ 400m.. so easy for him. Bolt-level easiness.

got hurt this week :/

100m bolt may have had a bad start, but he seems to have a habit of doing this and I think it's just a strategy on his part to psyche the opponents.

It's going good so far.

tbh I think he just has shit starts, compared to shorter 100m runners .. which are still amazing starts for someone of his build. I mean, I don't think he necessarily is going 100% on those starts yet, doesn't need too.. but still, he's had tons of bad starts. When he has a perfect start, he's in the ~9.5X-9.6X's lmao!

Bios / "Duncan Lou Who" might be RIP
« on: August 05, 2017, 08:57:59 am »
damn..... some crappy "news" this morning. Duncan has a bunch of videos/photos in the animals thread, he's become an icon of perseverance, even if he's just a dog.

Anyway, according to the official IG page, his owners hit a Bison in Yellowstone Park, flipped several times, and all of their dogs were missing. They recovered 2 of the 3. Duncan is still missing. With wolves & such out there, it probably won't have a good ending :/

This is the first of 3 (so far) IG posts describing the accident/search:



The only sliver of hope, is finding out there IG page was "hacked".. other than that... :/

Last video of him, during the road trip:

reminds me of that anecdote about milton berle, who had a legendarily huge cock. some guy challenged him to see whose was bigger, so they went in the bathroom and came out again a few seconds later. the guy looked disappointed. someone asked berle what happened and he said, "i just pulled out enough to win."

wtf... lmao

bw = 159
soreness = calves lightly
aches = left bottom of foot, left achilles slightly, left knee slightly (after run, for ~1 hour) .. right hip flexor slightly, feel alot better after eating
- edit: it's weird, if mosquitos jack me up near my achilles, it can make it feel like I have an achilles injury .. and i've been bitten around there a ton lately.. so I just have to be careful, because i'm unsure whether it's muscle/tendon aches, or weird pain/referred pain from mosquito bites.. eh!!
last night's sleep: very bad .. odd thing .. i keep getting lit up by mosquitos, and last night b4 sleep, let the dog's out to pee .. and got bit a bunch .. anyway my right index finger, on the side, has these bubbly lumps, almost feels like I got burned.. feels really weird.. so anyway that bugged me all night.

morning speed:
- 9 AM
- very hot
- no socks
- goal was to do an 800m under 2:30 ... data from garmin connect says 2:30, but, my watch said 2:29, so goto hell garmin connect. edit: actually, garmin says 2:29.6 :D  :ibrunning:
- i think my 800m PR is 2:21? so 2:29 in my first 800m in several months has me optimistic. I do feel pretty good.. I feel fast and i've got extra fat on me (and extra muscle), which is great once that fat comes off i'll have alot of extra pop.
-- edit: 800m PR is 2:23 ... +6s difference at this stage, i'll take it.
-- 800m PR of 2:23 came in December 2016 when I was in pretty much peak form.
- going out too fast definitely wrecks me, but, i need to be able to handle those paces better sooo..
- ooh I chased down a guy on a bike, was funny.
- also hit a ~100m (0.96m) in 13.8 seconds with running form / foot strike (not sprinting form), which is good at this stage .. means i'm producing some decent power again - already.
- max speed happened during one of the 0.06 mi runs @ ~16 mph



short session .. testing speed is always draining.

anyway, happy about it.



bw strength:
- ng pullups: BW x 9
- full dips: BW x 9 (right shoulder lame)
- standing single straight leg lifts: x 20
- standing single leg abduction: x 35
- close grip pushups: BW x 30
- pmghr quarters: BW x 7
-- nice
- torso rotations: x 20
- forward arm circles x 20
- leg swings: x 50 in a row each leg
- backward arm circles x 20
- other stuff
- hip rotation: x 20
- lateral leg swings: x 20



tomorrow: complete rest

wow what a finish .. Mo got tripped up twice on the last lap, almost fell .. also stepped on the inside line, but I imagine it won't be a problem because he got roughed up twice.

then he just turned on the burners and toasted everyone.

Cheptegei got 2nd.

Sir Mo Farah

this race is AMAZING so far.. also i've never seen showmanship like this in a 5k/10k race, like m0 is doing..

i've said it a ton of times, people need to try and run FAST to DEATH (push him way under 27m for 10k) in order to try and beat him .. looks like they are testing out all kinds of strategies in this race .. it also seems like several racers from different countries are working together to beat him.

man if he ends up winning this with a PB .. will be unreal.

I'm on this new thing (for the last 4 weeks or so), where I buy pretty much all of my food on saturday or so, and try to make it last for a week. Been doing really well on it. Main concern is not wasting food - got really annoyed with that. Second goal is to save money.

Nice! Having kids I definitely notice the food wastage

hah ya i bet.

but it's amazing what you can save when you actually focus on it.

yup.

i'm spending like ~$400 a month (~100 a week) on food right now.. which is way better than before I became more "efficient". 400 still seems like alot though.  :uhhhfacepalm:
