Imperial Hwy and Back - 48:06

Very slow run to up my weekly mile average and see how my left knee and right foot were feeling. They're no better, and it probably would have been better to let them rest but I probably won't be running for the next few days.

Will be ramping up mileage as my body lets me to prepare for the Long Beach (Half) Marathon I plan to run with my sister. Looking forward to a slow 8 miler at the beginning of next week.

Hermosa Pier and Back - 1:07:37 (PR)

Took one 2 minute walking break with 1.5 miles to go. Left knee is angry at me.

10.2/67.62 = 10/t
t = 1:06:17 (equivalent 10k time)


10k goal: < 50 minutes

Hermosa Pier and Back - 1:17:24 (PR - 1st at distance)

This run is 6.34 miles, or a few steps beyond 10k. Felt awful during the start, good for the second half. Ran two sets of 20 minute intervals with 5 minute walking breaks and then the remainder nonstop. This run burned approximately 1,250 kcals - I need to look into proper nutrition to run this long safely.

Manhattan Pier and Back - 25:36 (PR)

First sub 12 minute 1.5 miles. Wish I could better predict my performance while I'm running so I can more purposefully drive my times down. The first half felt much faster than the second but they ended up being very close. I am finding I need most of my focus on breathing since I have the unfortunate habit of forgetting to breathe during exercise.

I didn't feel that slow...

WC: 21-19-15 thrusters w/ 2x40# DBs, 11-9-7 DH chinups - 11:13

DUR: 100 anchored situps

Can't do kipping pullups on a door bar, and DH pullups are out of the question for now. Will be interesting to see how I do when I try this with a BB and kippable bar.
