No, that’s not all in one day. Will edit now for clarity.

How did I completely miss that 
That is a very fast 10k. I remember being dumbfounded when someone used the word “mil” around me, I assumed they were just poorly translating an Imperial mile.
Excellent catch! I mistook my mph for miles covered and then converted units. Blegh. Mistakes were made. A fellow can dream. The big win was running and not pulling the hamstring

Why do you have to be so humble, we would have believed the 40min 10k

I’d rather get there later than suffer through every future logged run appearing as the equivalent of a RPE 5 effort. Also, my log is a useful tool for me to track progress. It’s not about showing off.

ahh right- I’m very present bias
I don’t understand what you mean?
I wasn’t thinking about long term outcomes
Is the hamstring feeling any better, or are you basically gritting your teeth and tolerating it as before?
It is better. It hasn’t felt a 100%, but my mental model of injuries and return to play is that injuries won’t feel 100% until after some exposure and I trust it to hold up in the weight room now, and more so than before with regards to pushing ROM.
I didn’t set out to run, I packed a book to go and read on the other side of a lake which is nearby and the sun came out. Got inspired to run every other lamp post and once I had done that for a few kilometers and it wasn’t feeling any worse nor any better. I figured maybe I could use the pain cues to guide my stride and technique and eventually I was running pain free.
I still think the tissues have a little more remodelling left to do but I’m now fairly confident a part in that process can be putting some more miles on my shoes.

That’s great to know! As long as it’s not getting worse. Feeling even a little better is progress. Hopefully no one stole your book…

Sounds like you’re on the mend. I hope things continue to improve

Haha, no, fortunately it stayed safe in my backpack as I had that on me throughout the entire run. Started reading out on my balcony later during the night instead.

I wish I still had a balcony for that reason. I’m considering impulse buying a hammock

An oxymoronic statement if there ever was one.

Active day outside the norm. Some 16 km on the bike before breakfast and another 6+6 kilometers for dinner. Breakfast made over open fire near a lake. Dinner at the home of a pair of friends that have recently moved in together. Bottles and bottles of wine. Good times.

Around a lake, somewhat muddy, also ran in the woods a bit for kicks. Snow still present. Cadence of 140 steps/minute. Want to increase that. Time to scrounge through the apartment for my Moov which has a coaching feature.

The run was interesting. I’ve never done anything like that the morning after drinking and I held my breakfast and didn’t have to drop trou in the woods.
