run day!!! yezzzz!!!!!

run went good .. left ankle bugged out a little bit when going slow. right knee bugged out for the first ~1 minute then disappeared. bugged out a bit later on in the day. right bottom footpad of bigtoe felt good/never bugged out. feels a little worked but no pain.

did lots of stretching today which I probably shouldn't have .. also dug into my it-band VERY HARD manually (with hands/fingers). loosened it up a bit (temporarily at least).

- VO2 MAX: 65!!

left ankle is so odd .. seems i'm overpronating now when I go slow. When I go fast, it disappears. I think clipping it so much with my right foot really jacked it up lmfao. Consciously changed my form to make sure I hit the outside edge of my left foot in the second hour, and it felt alot better. I think somehow I altered a motor pattern by contacting it so hard & cutting it up. Very weird stuff. (I still have a ton of bruising on my left ankle from clipping it the last 3 weeks, and clipping it hard (bloody) in that half marathon).

Anyway, happy with the session. Only reason I stopped running is that I have to go get some work done EEH!!

ALSO: won't be running back2back days until i'm 100% .. so no running tmw! :( basketball dribbling tho ... which is some solid cardio/strength work.

^^^ MY HEART RATE MONITOR (watch based) IS ACCURATE!! lol. Best HR/effort data i've seen so far. That looks pretty perfect. Nice!

rest life. decided not to do any bball dribbling etc. just complete rest with some easy bodyweight work at some point.

also, lots of icing, and some deep lacrosse-ball release.

needed more ice packs so, went to look for some. they all sucked. so I just bought two bags of ice and filled up ziplock bags, wrapped em` in a paper towel, and ace bandaged them onto me. this allowed me to ice ALOT today and like usual, I respond very well to icing. It made my achy left ankle stop aching which is incredible.

...

ice fest.

tru. good point. i'll get a few bags this weekend.

fwiw, the real-ice packs I make seem much more effective than this gel pack I have. The gel pack gets really cold, it's not one of those sucky ones. But I like how the ice "shards/edges" dig in.

absolutely incredible how much it helps my left ankle. can't wait to get home and ice ice ice. already iced this morning but need to ice alot more.

also, right knee felt great all day and during the run (plus intense portion of it) .. yesterday it had some tweaks until I iced the F out of it.

ice fest in full effect.

run day!

man i just want to keep running. I don't want to stop. 2 hours in and I just thought, why did I tell my boss i'd come in at 10, why not say 11 .. would have given me another hour to run. but I guess it's for the best considering i'm not 100%. lol. Can't wait to be 100% though because honestly, relaxed running is feeling incredible.

ice fest continues tonight.

race day! or .. something like that :D :ninja: :ibrunning:

Long story short, hit a top speed PR of 18.3 mph. Never hit 18 mph with running form before. Think i've only gotten into the 17's a few times. Also did it at the end of the "race/workout".

Got to the event, warming up, wasn't too amp'd to run 10k - which continues the theme from this week. Hung with #2 & #3 for 1 mile while constantly thinking, bleh I just want to go crazy fast. So, shut it down and turned it into an interval workout. Still got 2nd for my age group somehow, LMAO!!

top speed PR. I hit 18.1 or 18.3 mph about 2+ years ago or so, but that's when I was focusing on sprinting exclusively. I also pulled my hamstring in that effort. LMAO. So that was massively forefoot, max effort top speed sprint. This was at the end of intervals with considerable fatigue. Pretty cool.

Wasn't really focused on this 10k, as indicated by my "meh!!" titles. So I went out with the 2nd/3rd place guys, 1st took off. Stuck around for a mile (5:44), then shut it down and started trying to convince myself to do some intervals. Once I did the first one, I was good to go. It was really odd doing that in a race setting but it was also pretty fun.

basically did: 5:44 mile, recover, then 13 x sub5 pace (random durations, longest was 47s) with jog recovery.

excited about Tuesday's mile race. want to really push that mile HARD.






movin! 18.3 mph! 3:17 min/mi! need to get that sub3 top speed!

put this clip on my IG since I love it so much & somewhat frequently refer back to it.

this is pretty much the gold standard of inspirational sports psychology.

Anthony's gave me another shout. Think they realized they have a niche in the workout/race world because of me. lulz.

my photo from the other day, that they reposted:
