Reinventing the Wheel

So in engineering reinventing the wheel is probably one of the worst things you can do once you realize you've done it. The most efficient way is to just find someone who invented the wheel and roll with it. This brings me to the following:

Anyways, those who have spent any time around me know I eat eggs. At my peak I've eaten 5-6 eggs a day solid. This diet contributed to my disbelief that cholesterol consumption does not lead to elevated blood cholesterol after the doctor said I had "very low cholesterol." Anyways the person describes exactly how I like my eggs...except I usually forego any milk/creamer. Except! I have been throwing in cheese, which is delicious.


I find this article funny because it is the opposite of a "scroll-down disaster" (a term I also picked up from Slate podcast when discussing The Busy Trap (NYTIMES) on the Slate Culture Gabfest Podcast). A recent of example of a "scroll-down disaster" for me was the following article: Two Spaces...(can't finish). Notice a trend?


Anyways I've been slow as of recent but today I made a breakthrough. I nutted up and ran.


Let's see how well this pastes (oh yes, this came after a ~1250m swim):

MILE	TIME	CHANGE	AVG PACE
1	7:00	--	7'00"/mi
2	14:09	+ 0:09 (-3%)	7'09"/mi
3	21:23	+ 0:05 (-2%)	7'14"/mi
4	28:22	- 0:15 (3%)	6'59"/mi
5 *Fastest	35:10	- 0:11 (2%)	6'48"/mi

This gave me some hope. Recovery food included just normal dinner food...chicken thighs, sweet potatoes, chicken stock, spinach, stewy stuff.


Tomorrow I'm hoping for a good workout!
