yeah i heard that too about the new sauconys but i gotta take a break from them for now, too pissed at the kinvaras giving me blisters. got the adios 5s, hope they're good.

i want to be able to make nikes work but they always squeeze my arthritic big toes in a weird way.

turned off the news today. about to head down to BLM plaza to help set things up for tonight. one last run before the shit hits the fan (or, maybe, just maybe, doesn't).

- run 12.36 km in 1:00:24
just let myself go, only checked watch once, at 5 km, to see whether i'd hit 30 mins or 6 km first. beautiful day.

- stretch

god help us.

shit slowly hitting fan. the thing i helped organize this morning was a bit chaotic but ultimately a success i think. not massively, but we did what we set out to do. woke up at 4:45 and couldn't get back to sleep, was pretty wired.

- run 9.94 km in 50:35
shorter than i meant to go but man i am tired. it's okay.

- circuit x 4
-- jump rope x 100 (did 10 double-unders at the ends of rounds 2 and 3)
-- lunge +40 x 8
-- push up x 16,16,15,15
-- pull up x 6,6,5,5

- Russian twist +20 x 10

- SL RDL +20 x 10/leg

weighed the sand bags today. they're ~20 pounds each, not 25.

damn good work.

hoping somehow biden can open up these leads. worried about what 45 and his minions have in store - they've been plotting for a while now, probably anticipating this exact scenario.

bleh. nervous.

- stretch

- circuit x 2
-- push up x 20
-- pull up x 7

- run 59:12, 11.56 km
so warm. nice and easy, ran very relaxed until the big hill in the penultimate km.

- stretch

early assessment of adios 5's: they're fine. nothing special, i will look for a different pair next. maybe suck it up and try the endorphins.

- warm up, hill sprints 120m x 7 w/walk down recovery; cool down
total distance 5.45 km. glutes definitely felt this. meant to do 8 but there was such a drop-off on the seventh rep that i stopped. breathing very hard.

- stretch

not that warm but heinously humid today. weather guy on the radio said it's like being inside a dog's mouth and that sounds about right. also raining lightly the whole day. T+DI 135, humidity 95% per accuweather.

- demolish bathroom floor x 2.5 hours
guy's coming tomorrow to put new tiles down and i had to rip up the old tile before he gets here. hammer, putty knife, chisel, and a lot of elbow grease. it's funny, i went to practice guitar just now and it was like i'd regressed three months. hands are just wiped out. carpenters are strong as shit, man.

no run, just ran out of time. i need to get a head lamp.

- run 35:14, 7.03 km
beautiful evening. just wanted to get the juices flowing a bit rather than taking a nap. i was tired this afternoon, for some reason. slept well last night (although i had a very vivid dream involving a friendly acquaintance from pakistan and a woman i had a crush on from grad school and some confusion about who would be staying where in a city we were all visiting together).

- stretch

went down to BLM plaza today to gather before marching over to king and spalding, one of the big law firms that's representing the trump campaign lawsuits. MAGA assholes were out, none of them wearing masks. all breaking current DC law by refusing to mask in public, although obviously the cops did nothing about it. a lot of infowars shit (one guy was even wearing an infowars t-shirt). among the anti-trump protesters who have been holding it down there for weeks now, there was an older lady holding up a "false idol" sign with a picture of trump on it. the chuds surrounded her, yelling at her from all sides, and she just stood there with the sign overhead like a fucking champion. brave woman.

ya they are. those "manual" jobs build some serious strength. my fingers/hands/forearms been wrecked lately from this farm life. pulling roots/weeds, digging holes, cutting down trees/branches.

years down the road might have some serious hand/forearm development .. jaja.

killing me that i can't be downtown today but my parents were too worried about covid exposure because there's thousands of dipshits proudly not wearing masks, who traveled all over the place. ;aowiejf;oian;lxckvna;lkfga;oierht;aowiejfas;kxncvla;xkcn;alihg;aowie

- warm up; 800m @5k pace x 6 [3:01, 3:01, 3:01, 3:02, 3:01, 2:55] w/2 mins walking rest; cool down
still feeling my way through workouts like this and not really pushing myself. should do either more reps or faster reps. that said, it was good pace practice. just not hard enough.

- stretch

ended up doing a supply run for some folks i know who had been kettled by the cops down near the WH. still wish i could have been in the thick of it, although stuff is getting pretty wild down there tonight. fascists out in the streets, stabbed some people, and obviously being protected by the cops while cops threatened nurses with arrest earlier today, in another part of the city, for protesting about school reopening plans. cop who was guarding the intersection i met people at was not wearing a mask, not even around his neck. fuck the police.

anyway mom was firm, though: too risky to be among all that w/r/t covid. and she's right. anyway, helping a little bit is better than nothing.

- run 1:58:02, 21.03 km
ran all the way to BLM plaza. turned left just before getting into the last block because as a protester i've found people jogging through an obvious protest to be oddly disrespectful or at least off-putting. relaxed pace (5:37 average) but still probably should be running slower on sundays.

did some cursory pull ups and push ups and hollow body holds yesterday. better than nothing but strength workout motivation remains low. it's very windy today, should be interesting to run later.
