haven't been able to mix much strength training with all the endurance

committed to 100 pushups a day (~2wks) in and it feels good!

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 🤣)

It's been a while since I said "Wow" out loud when testing a dev tool. Supersim (https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/supersim )did that for me

Props to @fahimsach for the pointer!
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

Wrapped up my first Iron Man 70.3 with @hamdi this past weekend.

tl;dr: I came up short in my first Ironman 70.3, earning a DNF (Did Not Finish) during the bike portion of the race. Three hours and 23 minutes in, with less than eight miles to go, the local police pulled me over as they opened traffic back up. I was under the impression I had 4 hours and 30 minutes for the bike—standard for 70.3 races—so I paced myself accordingly, keeping an average heart rate of 110, saving my energy for the run, where I felt strongest. Complaining won’t undo the DNF, but I won’t ignore that I put myself in this position.
