Ran 6 miles yesterday in 1:15 with the dog so that included the stops and short walk to through his poop in the trash can.  I'm not jogging with sh$t in my hand.  Stretched before and after.  I'm getting some achelles tendinitous I think.  Both are sore and ache a little.  Kind of sucks but being so heavy right now can't be good for them.

But anyway, going to sign up in a marathon in May to do something different so going to quit lifting heavy and drinking.  Hopefully my tendons feel better.  I'm stretching like crazy but just going to work through it until it becomes painful.  I wouldn't descibe it as pain, just annoying.

Went for my first run in 2 months, finally I think my knee is healed (after multiple physio sessions). Ran 3.5km at 6 min/km. Not too bad although I have been keeping my fitness up with plenty of mountain biking. Doing a 15km run end of next month (with an 700m vertical climb) so got my work cut out for that.

Couch to 5K, repeating Week 5, Day 1. It's changed since 10 days ago when I last ran, and the app is now named "Run 5K" or something. I don't know why, or why the program changed (last time it was three 5:00 runs with 3:00 between. This time it was 5:00, 7:00, 5:00 with 2:00 between).
Anyway, my calf feels okay. I ran the out part in slush and then turned around because right around the yellow bike rental the path became snowy and slushy. A good chunk of my run was through that. I've estimated the distance as well (hence the snap to roads) because the RunKeeper app had me running 27 miles all around Erie. I estimate that my pace was in the low to mid-9:00.
I have a 610 with the HRM. I'm going to wait to use that until I'm not doing so many weird intervals. I'll use that when I'm just out running for x minutes at a time, or something.
Wore the Kinvara 2s today. Felt great. Toes got a bit cold when I was squishing slush (mostly onto my left foot - which indicates I run slightly differently). They're stuffed with newspaper currently.

Week 5 Day 2 of the new (revised) Run 5K (formerly C25K) app.
I started the timer when I had a little walking (warmup) left and stopped it as I walked home. The runs were 5:00, 8:00, and 2:00 with 2:00 between them, so that's 15:00 running and 5:40 walking.
I'm still cautious about my left calf. So I thought I ran a bit more slowly - honestly I thought I was shooting for 10:00 run segments - then I check the RunKeeper app on my phone and it shows that I'd gone 2.03 miles in less than 21 minutes, so that's barely 10:00 including the 5:40 walking!
I felt fine the whole time, too. Calf was noticeably "not 100%" but it's mild discomfort at best. I'm icing it as a preventative measure more than anything else.
Was 60 degrees outside! Blue skies, windy as heck (it felt into the wind most of the time too)! I've checked the RunKeeper mapping a few times, it's accurate. I averaged running speeds of about 8:30, 9:15, and 8:00. The 9:15 includes running in place waiting for traffic, too.

Lifted last night.  Did chest and Tris.  Then tons of streches and ab stuff.  I've got some shoulder problems so I can't do much with my chest.  I do flat bench with my elbows really close to my body, close grip DB flat bench, decline, and then a whole bunch of tri stuff.  Overall, I'm happy with my strength gains in the past two months.  I can see and feel the changes.

    • Day 12: did the yardstick putting drill for a bit while watching tv. 
    • Hole 6, 185 uphill par 3, wind out of the right. I hit a 7 iron to 5-FT left of the pin. The ball landed about 185.5 yards. I drained the putt for a birdie, and most likely a skin.  2nd place is more of a best swing made. 110 yard wedge shot, where I did what I wanted in the back swing and downswing.  I hit a 75% partial wedge 95%. It was flushed, flighted, and beautiful to watch fly over the green. 🤣. I will need to redial in the wedges sometime. Since I am making an effort to make my former 3/4 swing length my full swing length. 
    • Is that like "the longest yardstick you can find"? I don't have Airtags but I'd call all of them Airtags too.!
    • Yea, that makes sense.  I remember an Open tournament when they brought out the wind meter one day because balls were being blown around the green. I think it was 45+ sustained, which probably means 60 mph gusts.  I think for the most part, it isn't something that needs to be taken into account.  Also, a golf ball is designed to optimally move through the air. It has better aerodynamics than a sphere.  Thanks for your expertise on this. That makes sense. I know about how wind diminishes the lower in height you go. I didn't know it went near zero at the ground. I deal more with tall structures (utility poles), and we have to take into account height and impacts of wind on the pole. A bit of experience, but wasn't sure how close to zero, non-impactful it was on the golf ball on the ground. 
    • Day 2 (7 Aug 25) - More work on tempo with mid-irons, moved to wedges for the balance of the drill.
