Step by step, mile by mile

AM - 5. forgot about daylight savings so i woke up an hour later than i'd want to get 5 in before work, but as i was getting ready i got put on call so i was able to get it in. felt good. probably at about 90% of the fitness i was before the break, should get that back over the next couple of weeks.

noon - another 5 before i got called in. went shirtless since it was nice out and it's supposed to rain for two weeks straight starting tomorrow so i won't get that luxury again any time soon

AM - 5. knee felt a bit sore during work yesterday but felt fine this morning, inner left hip felt tight at times during the run and lo and behold my knee was sore after. i've been about 90% sure the problem is because my hips got put out of alignment when i did that 35-45 two day combo when i wasn't in great shape, i think all 80 of those miles were ccw loops. anyway the hip tightness upped that to 99% but since i'm what you call "blue collar" i'd need to save up for a couple of weeks to be able to afford to see someone who can pop them back into place. dammit, just dammit. i'll take today off since i work later and maybe try stationary and weights tomorrow

AM - 5 at the gym + lower body/core. knee felt good, bc that’s made a difference

AM - 5, first 3 miles a bit faster(under 20 minutes), then the next two without a watch. surprised the knee was totally fine with this, but really my thoughts on the next week of training are just run what i can until i get my paycheck next friday and get professional help.

AM - 5. did a nice lil' progression

think i'm gonna stop blogging for about a month. i'll still be running, as the strava homies will attest to, but i'm in a rut right now and having to write about training when absolutely every ounce of enjoyment has been sucked out of it these past couple of months isn't helping. that being said, i'm still hopeful that this is an issue that'll be solved by basically just having my hips popped back into place. also lost 5 pounds in 5 days and i'm sure that's good for me. anyway see y'all in a month, hopefully i'm in way better shape than everyone else by then

oh and i've been wanting to say this since january; the coronavirus is some overhyped bullshit that can come kill me at my hospital job if it's so dangerous. i'd rather die than live with this zombie-apocalypse ass world i'm finding myself in anyway. and rudy golbert is a moron
