Been 4 weeks since I pulled off the floor and was pretty happy. Last set was hard but definitely had more in me. Going to keep everything the same and hopefully in 4 weeks can do a little better.

Unless it really messes up my lifts going to try and do a 1/2 marathon at the end of September. Been 4.5 years since my last when I injured myself and never thought I would be able to run again. As long as my diet and training is in check really don't think it should effect my lifts to much besides squats for a little bit. Goal is just to complete it and nothing else.

I bought some really good running shoes. My feet do hurt but it is improving each week as my body start to adjust to it.

Can I ask what you got? I'm always on the hunt for running shoes that help my plantar issues. I've used these Sauconys and they helped a lot:

There is another 1/2 marathon the following Sunday after the one I am thinking of doing. Might just go for it and do them both since I will be already in condition for it. A lot will depend on when I pull of the floor in a couple of weeks. Will see then how much this running is effecting my lower body lifts.

I bought a pair of Sauconys and think they are okay. When I was running always got the upper priced Asics, usually paid around $125 to $150 for them at full price and loved them. Just didn't want to pay a lot for the pair I got since didn't know if I could actually run long distance again. Also buying a really good pair of insoles helps a lot since usually they put cheap stuff even in the more expensive shoes.

So today's run was sort of a test for the 1/2 marathon since I will probably be up around 18 hours straight and working through the night, 10pm to 6am is my schedule. One of my biggest concerns was how my body would respond and today was about as expected, it really sucked. I decided that the 1/2 marathon the following weekend will be a no go. Mentally I really don't want to put myself through that back to back weeks. Time I got to lifting was up 25 hours straight and ran the 11 miles. Considering everything my top set was probably only around 15lbs off.

7 Mile Run; 65:52
Was suppose to do squat today but got busy and was pretty worn down. Worst case if I don't get it in tomorrow will be 21+days in between squat session, which I probably could use. Runs are going a lot better but still dealing with hamstrings getting tight. Bought some compression leggings today and it really helped a lot. Probably the best my hamstrings felt after a run.

Should have stopped a set before the last since the last set was definitely an ME set. Either way happy with the results and this new deads workout seems to be working good. The old way I did deads no way in a 6 weeks period I could have pulled 440lbs and then 445lbs. Sure the running is not helping too and if I de-loaded before an ME set think things would be better. Ended up signing up for both 1/2 marathons, 9/29 and 10/7. Sometimes I get crazy ideas in my head because I really like a physical/ mental challenge and this definitely is. Haven't ran in 4 1/2 years and in 10 weeks going to try and run 1/2 marathon with another 8 days later. So far though think the training has not effected my lifts to much and will have 8 weeks afterwards for the meet.

yeah but in all the years I've known you, you do seem to be very goal oriented and like having a "finish" line pushes you like hell. Your performance always seems to really go up when you have a competition coming.

Left shoulder was hurting during warm ups so adjusted my bench to touch the bar a little lower on the chest. Pain went away but did feel a little weaker but going to keep it as my normal bench moving forward. Staying healthy is the most important thing and pretty sure once I get use to touching lower and the new bar path things will even out in the end.

Run felt really good today, about 5 weeks ago my 1st 4 mile run did in 43:58. Left shoulder/ chest is still hurting but pain goes away after warm ups and 1st few sets. Same pain I always get when my presses start getting up there. The tendon from the chest, up around the armpit, to the bicep. Hoping it does not get worse and can just hold were it is because I go on vacation 10/13 and if I take the week before off will give my 21 days in between bench session.

Run felt really good today, about 5 weeks ago my 1st 4 mile run did in 43:58. Left shoulder/ chest is still hurting but pain goes away after warm ups and 1st few sets. Same pain I always get when my presses start getting up there. The tendon from the chest, up around the armpit, to the bicep. Hoping it does not get worse and can just hold were it is because I go on vacation 10/13 and if I take the week before off will give my 21 days in between bench session.

Been wanting to compare the Inzer's with Titan's Sig. Gold and had a chance today. Feel about a +10lb difference with Titan over Inzer. Been wondering if Inzer's Black Beauty would be worth the almost $100 and after today really thinking hard about getting them. Figured at the worst would be equal to Titan's Sig. Gold so would have 2 pairs of heavy wraps.

10 Mile Run; 92:03
Taking the rest of the week and early next week off from pressing. Soon as my left chest/ shoulder area started hurting should have at least went down on my frequency of pressing. Up until the pain was pretty sure on doing the meet in December but now it is up in the air. Meet is filling up so in the next few weeks need to make a decision one way or the other. Was 4 1/2 years in between my last meets because of reasons like this and just hoping will not be another 4 1/2 years again.

Deads, (DE);
3 sets 3 reps 225lbs, 250lbs, 275lbs
RDL's:
1 set 7 reps 275lbs
1 Mile Run
Forgot I did ME deads last week and quickly realized it on my 2nd DE set. My one and only RDL was way harder than it should have been so just stopped for the day. After that just could not get in the mood for a run though today was only suppose to be 3 miles so no biggie missing that. Shoulder is still hurting so looked at other meets in my area and the next one is in February. Still holding out hope for this one but honestly right now about 50/50 for this meet. Hoping after both 1/2 marathons I will see a small increase in both deads/ squats but will see.

Was not expecting much because of yesterday's run and legs were a little sore and fatigue. Was surprised when I hit my scheduled top set for the day. Just cannot see how there wont be some kind of bump in my squats after all this running is over.
