The exercises are done one after another (with pauses to recover), then repeat the whole circuit. Very happy about the chinups as I go a very long range of motion with my long arms, felt great! Also the overhead presses with a 20 kg kettlebell are not too shabby, either.

- track
-- warm up
-- 8 x 600 @ 5k pace [2:22, then 2:16-2:18 with 2:13 on penultimate rep] w/100m walking rest
-- cool down
faster than my 5k PR pace but i feel like i should be pushing harder on these more uptempo workouts. this still wasn't that hard. knee bugged me, flared up a little on the second rep even, but i decided to give it one more rep after that and it settled down. still, not great, will take tomorrow off from running and go to the gym.

* bw now steady at 202-204lb. doing the single leg leg press on hoist machine for some leg pushing that won't my back. 475s been alright but pushing for 495 at this weight is going to get me a lot of fatigue very fast. doable but not worth it. i will increase my protein in take with shrimps. my blood cholesterol does not go bad even with 12 eggs/day. il try shirmps and get tested in a few weeks and see if i'm alright with this.
* higher protein diet and maintain total calories per day so i don't accumulate fat fast.

thanks guys! legs definitely sore yesterday and today. ankle is feeling better, though: still a bit stiff and painful but i'm not limping. good sign. and yeah adarq that's a good point, the slowdown may have been affected by the ankle even though it didn't hurt the rest of the race.

also, meant to note earlier that my balls are chafed so bad. i forgot to reapply squirrels nut butter after the first lap on saturday and i regret that very much.
