First long run since the IM. My base level of fitness for running got cooked in just 2 weeks! 😭

HR was above 160 the whole time, really had to dig deep
We're back running again!!! Check engine lights are off!! (but still flickering 🤣)
Will be running 27mi for my 27th this month (Oct 17)!! Also my first attempt at a marathon

Haven't run at all the last two weeks w some leg pains from the IM so we'll see how this goes 😅
Always building 🛠️

Just joined the Scout Game waitlist! Ready to scout, build, and win by spotting top onchain talents!

Join me and claim your spot by sharing this frame.
Now how does one stay in decent IM70.3 shape while reclaiming time for other things 🤔

Hoping to strike some balance with a lower but consistent weekly load and ramp up ~3mo out from the next race
What a journey this was with a lot of unexpected twists doing the IM 70.3 with @zain

Very grateful to finish considering a flat tire I could not fix alone in the cold.

I had a sub 6hr goal that I couldn't meet but that'll just make the next race feel that much better 🫡 💪🏾
Amazing framework for dealing with tough challenges. Especially one that can have uncontrollable external factors (BAD WEATHER).

& this is just the beginning. Higher
Went from swimming ~600yds in 1hr (45m rest lol) 3 months ago to swimming 3500yds in 1hr 20m

Unbelievable how far u can go if you just stick with it (I almost quit after day 2!)

So excited to share what DevX has been cookin this quarter, local Superchain development with 𝙎𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙢!! 🔴

Locally observe cross-chain interactions & iterate on multi-chain apps 🚀
◦ ship experimental features early (interop 👀)
◦ locally use OP protocol features and contracts
◦ fork a subset or all superchain remote state
◦ package in 3rdparty integrations (i.e bundlers)

Race in < 2 weeks! Reflected & lol'd at this exchange. Pretty sure I googled what a tri was

Me: I signed up for my first half!!

@zain: Ur ready.
3 days of rest felt like an eternity!! Felt really good to swim/bike today.

Still holding off on running as my leg isn't 100% yet
Legs are still giving me some trouble so i'm starting my taper early to sort it out

Had a good run on the receipts leaderboard 🫡
Reminder to foam roll and stretch!! My left calf pain i'm sure is due to tightness all over my leg from high load. so bad i've been slightly limping the last week

Just had the most excruciating massage that's already helped a ton 😭
Crushed my 5k PB by a minute - 20:38!! Had a rough gameplan this time around & successfully ran a negative split

Leaving off the glory of sub 20 post ironman when my body doesn't feel like it's on the verge of falling apart 😅
race day is close!!!
racked up 1,280mi on my bike since getting it ~3mo ago. Insane
For the runners here -- has anyone's appetite for soda dramatically increased with mileage? Relatively new to the sport and I'm easily craving 2/3 cans of coke a day or with every meal lol

Used to hate drinking soda!
5k race on the 24th, Garmin has a lot of faith 😅

Context: 21:33 June 15th
Low volume week due to travel (I likely needed the rest). Excited to be back in nyc and get after it these last couple of weeks!!!

Praying the hip flexor tightness goes away with some rest, has been bothering me all week 🙏🏽
WE GO HIGHERRR (longest run). Locked in the weekly stats

33.6mi Run
144.5 mi Bike (PB by 1 mile lol)
6850yd Swim
New longest ride ⬆️⬆️

(& puts me back at #1 for intensity mins 🤭)
