5 mile run: 38:25
7:41 minute mile pace
Difficulty 6-7

Not too hard at all. Army Ranger minimum is 40 minutes, so this was a decent amount under the minimum and well under my fastest pace. Not bad for having run once in the last couple weeks and not having run over 3 miles in like 1 year lol! I actually impressed myself a lot, thought I would be a lot slower. Hardest thing about it was the incredible boredom!!!!!!

You have to get used to it. I remember meeting this marathon runner who told me it took him years to get really good at it. Some people are born to run but for others they need to really practice and be patient through all the shin splints, aches and pains, etc etc...

I feel like I have always been born to run, it just feels smooth and easy to me. Gets boring as hit doing 5 miles especially because I don't have an ipod, but it was pretty effortless even though I thought I was out of running shape. I have gotten mild shin splints running on the treadmill before though.

EM: You might want to run 1-2x a week a short distance to get your joints used to it, heart health is extremely important in life.

I used to get super bad shin splints even after 5 mins jogging.

I do my cardio 15mins cycling twice a day 3 times a week

Me too. It still happens. But...it takes time to adjust to actual jogging. I am the same as you, bro...shin splints that take a LONG time to go lol...

yeah man the next day my shins hurt so much its hard to walk up stairs, it hurts my knees and ankles sometimes too. When I said I used to get shin splints, I meant when I used to run lol, I bet I would get them straight away if I did any running now, and probably alot worse cause Im heavier now...

Friday 4/2/10

Deadlift

1x5x205 (over)
1x2x255 (over)
1x2x315 (over)

Good morning
1x5x225 PR (belt)
1x2x225
1x8x135

Comments: I managed to fit another 2.5 plate on both sides, basically I rearranged all the plates cause a few are skinnier and barely fit it on. 380 is the true max though. My tendon started killing me mid set though, my grip really gave out cause I didn't have chalk and the tendon was freaking out. I probably should've worn straps, this tendon is never gonna heal if I don't give it some rest. However 380 did feel pretty easy, could've pulled maybe 10 pounds more for 5.

Any advice on what to do for it?
