The 10y/o improved by 3.5 minutes on his PR at the 5k today.
I got a new high score/tied high score on maximum heart rate. Not sure if that is good?

Yeah, I've trimmed off the warmup/cooldown off a run that was destined for Strava before.
IDEA: before "couch to 5k" you should first complete the
"bed to couch", "couch to breakfast table", "breakfast table to fridge" challenges.
I got 13 races on my 2023 calendar! LFG!!!! 🚀
That's like 130 social media posts!

but nearly perfect pecan pie recipe.
I like my updated profile. I talk about what I *tweet* about, not what I don't tweet about. Too many bios say, "I like scifi" but only tweet sports or politics.

5k #running is 1/2 endurance sprinting and 1/2 obstacle course running (getting around all the walkers)
Resting HR has been going up since Tuesday (5 days), so I think I'm officially got a common cold and can't go #running - What rules of thumb do you follow to decide when you're sick and when you're not?
"Don't run when you're sick" is a pretty useless rule.
- Skip days with fever? (2 days a year)
- Skip days with running nose or cough? (180 days a year)
- Skip days when "tired" (345 days a year)

#running - bought tennis wrist bands to keep my fitbit & garmin watches from sliding down my skinny arms. They are supposed to be two fingers above the wrist bump...essentially impossible for my arm's geometry
#running how many long runs should one do in the 4 weeks leading up to a half marathon? (3? one per weekend?)
#running - Hey all my runners out there, this is the funniest thing on youtube if you do any running
