Ran my fastest single km within a run since hip replacement the day after the apocolypse

August 20, 2018 ChristopherKelsall

Yesterday, spent the day in bed with food poisoning. Vomited technicolour rainbows all day.

Currently we are surrounded by forest fires and our normally pristine air is graded standard: BEIJING. Suspended particulate-pallooza.

So of course it makes sense to go for a run today. Banged out a 6K steady and dropped the pace to 4:46 for a km. Fastest km yet since surgery.

Makes no sense.

Lesson learned kids: in the case of emergency, jettison all extra weight by vomiting and smoke a cigarette before running.

  Air quality index in Spokane was at 302 yesterday (https://www.spokanecleanair.org/current-air-quality). That is on a range of 0 to 500. When it reaches 150 it is considered unhealthy. We’re smoking the same cigarette my friend.

  That’s horrible. I wonder if you are worse off than us, being that we are on the water?

  We are down to an index of 52 and a forecasted high of 75 today. Looks like I will be enjoying a nice run today. (finally).

  I’m not sure what’s worse, the air quality or running in the heat and humidity. Either way, congrats on your fastest km.
