so wet, T+DI 144, evenly split between temp and dew point. legs felt really good, though. had to hold back to make sure i kept it easy. HR went up a little into the 130s toward the end when there a couple steepish hills, but overall averaged 126, nice and chill.

it's great that, even having skipped thursday, i still ran >69 km with nearly 6.5 hours time on feet. feels like progress.

Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

HR higher than last week (average 144, 148, 155) because it's somehow even more humid. literally misty when i left the house. but pace felt good, breathing was smooth and even at four steps in, four steps out.

T+DI 141. ran into a friend from the running group who was also out for an easy one and we ran together for a couple miles, was nice.

at the halfway point of the year, i've run 1801 km. well on track to cross the 2000 mile mark for the year, good stuff.

mild headache since last night, resulting from drinking a second tallboy at an event i went to and not eating enough food. very stupid, i knew even as i was letting my friend buy me the beer that i shouldn't be drinking it. but there you have it. apart from a strip running from behind my right temple down to my right trap, i feel fine and this was not challenging despite T+DI 145. pleased with myself for getting out the door despite the headache.

the event was cool, celebrating the anniversary of two local independent, worker-owned media sites. one covers local news and culture, founded by reporters from a beloved but defunct website that was shut down twice by previous owners. the other is a black leftist magazine. one of the co-founders of the latter is a philosopher whose work i like a lot. i met him, turns out he's a neighbor and, funnily enough, he was on the track this morning walking laps. i said hello.
