1- As of 22:30 8/2/07 I can hold my breath for 2 min 25 sec. That's not bad but I used to be able to hold it for well over 3 min. I discovered this during a rare bout of insomnia which kept me awake till after midnight. Subsequently, I was became instantly aggro when my alarm went off at 5:15 this morning. Nevertheless, I got up, went to work, set up my chimerism run, and went to the gym all before 9. Yay for me. Plus I have a great parking spot.
2- This past Saturday, Tao ran 50 fucking miles with a bunch of elevation gain on trails at Mt. Rainier in just over 11 hours. That's exactly twice what it took me to run a marathon with relatively little elevation gain on pavement (but it did snow!) He didn't do any extra training. Just spontaneously decided to do it last week. He was a little sore Sunday. Motherfucker went and played badmitton on Monday. I hate Tao.
Nathan and Tao are eager to repeat this same run next year. What's wrong with these people?
3- I'm really hungry.
4- I've been climbing for, like, four years and I suck balls at it. That's bullshit and I'm not happy about it. I got spanked on 5.9's last night. Gym 5.9's. If I didn't climb with two cool guys every week, I would just fucking hang up my spurs for good. Watch TV instead. I'm good at that.
5- I'm going to eat.

LOL! I first went climbing about 2 years ago. If I can pull out a 5.7 indoors, I'm pretty damn happy. I went outdoors with the Sementis (pre-Tellie) and Linard, and I got stuck because of a tumor on my arm (couldn't get my arm into a crack). I'm attrocious at climbing! No reach, no flexibility... but I still enjoy it as often as I can.
Also, running trails or roadways is overrated. Chasing down a jeuvenille delinquent who's trying to flee a lockdown facility... now that's something to train for.
