-Believe it or not I tweaked my shoulder sleeping.  It is fine now after 2 days of NSAID but didn't feel pushing it. Being old sucks, lol.

Bodyweight@session : n/a
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches : none

T0DDDAY-BASED ALTERNATING GYM-TRACK SPLIT

Week #12
Park day #1


15 minutes Dynamic warmup ( including 4x100m strides ).

1*100m@100% : low 16s
-Pretty good. Only rested 3 minutes from the strides which were ~75% ( ~20s ).

10' RIM JUMPS:
SVJ : max ~25''
Dropstep : max ~29''
1-step DLRVJ : max ~28'
2-3 steps DLRVJ : max ~29''
-Nice. Everything felt better and was higher. Got a sick dropstep at 29'' but was not repeatable.  1-step was uncoordinated. 2-3 steps 29s were repeatable.Couldn't get to 30'' though.

TEMPOS:
5*150m @ 70% , starting every 2 minutes.
-Great finisher! Although i was already 1 hour in, legs felt very light. Kept going faster than planned ( 32s vs 35s ).
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

---

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

ooo nice. drop-step 29", sounds like you'll be back to hitting 30's on your 2-3 steps DLRVJ's fairly soon.

Thanks! No time though, leaving for summer vacation next week, haha.

I am enjoying running pretty much indeed. Not distance running, i hate it, a mile is the most i can run getting some enjoyment out of. But the sprints, i love them.

ya distance running can suck. if you're not there mentally it's torture. i'm not having as much fun with it lately, thus why it's not in my journal much.. i think i'm just too drained mentally to have fun with it right now.. and like you, enjoying the fast short sprints :F

I'll be gone for ~20 days. I could do some stuff to 'keep in touch' ( e.g. BW circuits, more aggressive swimming etc ) but i always end up not doing them, my mentality changes to DGAF when im off. So no training plans, we'll see.

In other news, morning BW is just over 83kg ( 183.5lbs ) and biggest waist circumference in ~87cm ( 34.25'' ). Both my BI scale and http://clymer.altervista.org/bmi/ agree i am ~15.5% fat. Not bad at all. Last time i measured was early May, ~84kg/16.5%, numbers say i managed to drop ~1kg of fat while losing only ~0.1kg LBM. Neat.

-Awesome, got the 30'' milestone at the last park session before holidays. Twice!. lots of 29s too. 30 is not just a round number, it is 10'5'', that sweet spot that you touch rim with palm and can wrap entire fingers around it. Feels good!!! Great to know there is still some juice left in there.

TEMPOS:
5*150m @ 70% , starting every 2 minutes.
-Legs were toasted from jumping, this time i was getting 2 seconds more than target.

Sorry for belayed reply. I was all around Greece, couple of seaside mainland places and couple of islands. It is too easy for us in the summer here and it is too good to consider going somewhere else, everything is reachable with a very cheap 30 minutes flight and even if you are not up to that there is always an awesome beach withing 1-2 hours drive, wherever you live.

Aaaaand, i'm back. No training at all those days, except from an extreme ( for my standards ) amount of walking the last 10 days at the islands ( mobile says 4-5 km per day ).

As we say here when coming back from holidays 'may we have a good winter'.
