session 11: (per Twitter) 3.3mi in 49m20s (avg. 4.01mph), peaking at 6.2mph for a half-lap.

Seems every time I get on the 'mill I push my limits just a little further, but one thing I'm kind of frustrated with is, not being able to jog much more than 1/4 mile at a stretch.

For lots of list-cleaning purposes, a spreadsheet is preferable to a database. Up to 2000, MS Excel was limited to around 65,500 rows, and even now OpenOffice Calc is limited to about 1 million rows; so if you need to operate on lists that exceed your spreadsheet limits, then you need to work in a true database manager application, such as MS Access. In Excel, you might sort your list by the column you were deduping, and use a formula to increment a count or simply show a flag word if the current record... (...more)

For some reason the checkbox-type input element to flag entries under editing as "hidden" is, itself, invisible in the edit page. I know it's there, I can see the selection outline if I tab to it, but I can't tell if it's toggled. I could deal with it easier if I at least had an indicator in the entry template to tell me if the entry was flagged hidden. A little twiddling and here's what I came up with: :X At first I tried an inline style spec including a "title:'hidden'" attribute. I don't know ... (...more)

After 10 sessions of treadmill cardio, I can safely say my limits stem from: 1. Breath. I found a groove a couple sessions ago, ~4.8mph jogging, where I felt like I could sustain my breathing indefinitely if my muscles could keep up. CV training will naturally pull up pulmonary efficiency, but the process would be aided by including respiratory exercises in a muscle-targeting routine. Conventional Western medicine generally prescribes aerobic (i.e., cardio) exercise for pulmonary rehabilitation. Yoga spec... (...more)

Session 10: 3.3mi / 50min, peaked at 5.8 or 5.9mph. My best jog phase was half a lap at something like 5.5mph, then slowing to 4.8ish to complete the lap. I was feeling a bit off-peak throughout the run, which made my form a little sloppy. I think that has something to do with what I'm eating and/or when; I might get back in the swing of energy bars if it strikes a better balance between feeling torpid as much as 4 hours after a protein-heavy meal, and being distracted by hunger signals halfway through a r...
