i got home from work and broke my fast. i was fine all day, but i got home and the bottom fell out. the combination of feeling shitty, a little trembly, and dropping maybe one too many pounds this week was too much to take. the weight loss doesn’t matter much, as i can put the weight back on pretty quickly, but the trembly/shitty i knew was no good and it sent me into a tiny panic that i was maybe fucking myself up. it probably wasn’t the case, but why risk it?

so yeah, it’s over. in retrospect, i don’t know what i could do differently to go longer. though i don’t know if i needed to.

order of operations: pick up the produce crate, buy some bananas, make a moderately-sized fruit salad, sit quietly.

4/7 of the way through the juice fast

jay — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 07:00:28 +0000

i think the common pattern for fasting is that you don’t notice anything the first day, the second and third days are terrible, and then by the fourth day, you feel like you could go forever. needless to say, i’m happy to be at day four.

the solid food cravings were incredible. getting home from work and not grabbing the walk-in-the-door-snack of a handful of almonds made me feel like something was missing. putting lettuce into the juicer instead of into a big bowl for eating also felt so wrong. because i felt like i was depriving myself, my mood wasn’t great either. however, that was yesterday, today is different. getting home from work, juicing four apples and some ginger was absolute magic. i upped the calories somewhat and my mood has improved.

when you first go raw, there’s such a drastic change in your body and mind — you lose weight, feel super-light and energetic, sense that everything seems way sharper and way more vibrant. and then about a year into it, you adjust and that’s your new normal. i think that this yearly fast is my way of trying to get back to that feeling. i get why people become liquidarian (no solid food) and breatharian (no food or water at all). those aren’t steps i see myself taking, but i get why people do it — the feeling of lightness is really compelling.

i know what i’m learning from this fast: when i get back to solid food (probably sunday), i need to keep it to a more low-fat raw diet. it’s not that i don’t eat any cooked food, but on the days when i’m not going out to dinner, i need to keep it low-fat raw. tahini dressing on a salad, ok. nervous-energy pacing-around-the-house four-tablespoons of almond butter, not ok.

it feels good to have a plan.

running vs other

jay — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 20:07:59 +0000

i’m starting to wonder if my complete and deeply obsessive running habit is covering up for something else that isn’t going so great. i mean, i love running. i crave it. but i think i love and crave it like an addict craves their drug of choice. i consider myself lucky to have found something that i like so much. but i can’t help but feel that because i can put 100% of my focus into running that i’m totally avoiding all the other stuff and hoping that it’ll fix itself. wish the other stuff luck, because i doubt it’s getting attention anytime soon. at least while i’m injury-free. knock wood.

the race report

jay — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 05:15:54 +0000

this past weekend, i ran the shit out of the lasse viren 20k. i ran it fast and put in a new pr in the (almost) half-marathon category. i ran so hard that i think i blew out my bronchial muscles (if they exist). i’ve never heard of that before, but i think it can happen when you redline from start to finish. anyone?

the lasse viren 20k isn’t a big race, but it brings a pretty fast field. it’s about eight miles worth of fire roads and 4 miles of asphalt; a decent hill in the middle and pace-threatening/leg-breaking dips throughout. i stayed with the same three or four guys after the people who went out too fast faded away. the scenery seemed nice, though i didn’t see much of it because i was 100% focused on the people in front of me, wondering if i could pull some of them back. this shit is all business.

the hills were hard and i put in some work, trying to shed some people. i did, but they pushed the pace on the downhills, not leaving any time for recovery. the last six miles, though flat or downhill, were as hard as the first six. dudes were pushing hard. at mile eight, i was close to giving up, but then someone else popped and i knew that i couldn’t be that guy.

i passed two guys between miles eight and nine. at mile 10 it got a little easier because i could picture the last two miles of any run back to my house. i settled in and realized that i would be able to hold it, but the guy i was running with found another gear and pulled away. he wound up beating me by 20 seconds. what’s amazing is that he’s 20 years older than i am. dude is in awesome shape.

i love running, but it’s hard to write about it in any kind of meaningful way.

stats
race distance: 12.43m
clock time: 1:21:16
pace: 6:32 min/mile
i came in: 15th

though you can’t add mileage and have it be a meaningful stat, if this were a half marathon (13.1m), i would have run: 1:25ish (pr by 3min). and it’s really hard to think that a 3:05 marathon isn’t within my grasp if i had any kind of intelligence about training.

i suck at science

jay — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 14:20:24 +0000

i woke up early this morning having nightmares about the existence of gravity, which are only slightly less terrifying than my nightmares about the existence of free will. my curiosity about science > my knowledge of science.

i suck at science example 1:
i get that gravity is what keeps water and people in south america from floating into space (they’re on the bottom of the earth). but i still kind of feel like if i’m driving south, i’ll get better gas mileage because i’m headed downhill. fast. i mean, i’ve seen a globe. if i put a matchbox car on it starting in seattle, i get to los angeles really quickly before i go careening into the ether.

i suck at science example 2:
let’s say that i get into the elevator on the 10th floor of my building and the doors close and then the cable snaps, sending me and the elevator car towards earth. fast. just before the elevator car and i crash into the subbasement, i have a well-timed jump straight up in the air. i’ll be ok, right?

i suck at science example 3:
gravity comes from the earth, because the earth has mass (thanks mr wizard). so let’s say that i dig a hole to the exact middle of the earth, which i understand to be 1) hot 2) liquid and 3) containing hitler. so now i’m in the middle of the earth and i drop a coin. which way does it fall? does it just hover because it’s in the exact center of the earth?

this is the dumbest reason ever not to be sleeping.

cheep

jay — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 05:59:46 +0000

on the way out to the coast today for what is quickly becoming a weekly surf trip, i paid $1.84 per gallon of unleaded gas on the indian reservation. maybe it’s white guilt, but i can’t help but feel like i’m taking advantage somehow.

lawn

jay — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 02:21:52 +0000

on my run yesterday, i ran into matt and eliza. among other things we talked about, we talked about raking leaves and why it’s important. it’s important because if you don’t rake, the leaves will smother the grass and then bye-bye lawn and hello nasty looks from neighbors.

so when i got home from surfing today, i used my hour of spare daylight to rake the yard. raking is fun, picking up the leaves is a bummer. and while that yard-work meditative state was settling in, i remembered that i don’t like grass and that by raking leaves, i was effectively giving comfort to the enemy.

and why am i doing this? because when you live somewhere that has the jay-approved coupling of politeness and judgment, neighbor and landlord approval means something. or at least not hearing about it means something. though i am resigned to rake and mow for as long as i’m renting, when i have my own house, i’m going to tear out all the grass and plant a small farm of dark leafy greens.

the uncontrollable

jay — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 21:24:58 +0000

today was probably the longest run i’ll do before that 20k — 15.5m with lots of hills. i mean, i’ll probably do a few there-and-back runs to/from work between now and the race but those commute runs are more double workouts than they are long runs. i am ready…

or ready for a 20k in western washington. i am not ready for a 20k in 90°-and-on-fire southern california. i’m just not. the average temperature when i run up here has probably been 45°, exactly half what i could potentially be running in down there. nuts, right? i mean, if it dips to the 60s by race day, i’m going to beat that fucking mountain to death. if it’s 90, or even 80, the reverse could be true.

theory on why this morning’s run was so incredibly good (i suspect i could have done an additional five miles without too much effort): not overtraining during the week (kept it to 30miles over three days and biked the other two), eating really well yesterday (12 bananas, two papayas, and one giant lettuce/fruit salad), and getting eight hours of sleep last night. eat right, get lots of rest. can it really be that simple?

my pineapple express morning

jay — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 23:39:25 +0000

downside of a pineapple express: there’s a shit-ton of rain, the ocean swell comes from the south and makes the waves incredibly large and sloppy and bad for surfing.

upside of a pineapple express: it warms up the air to a balmy 60° and if i find a mango or a papaya to eat for lunch, i can pretend that i’m living somewhere tropical.

i hammered an 11mile run this morning. while hammering, i saw a guy wearing a members only jacket, smoking a cigarette, mowing his lawn, in a downpour. tough! also, he wasn’t just letting the grass spray everywhere, he was actually bagging it. i couldn’t figure him out, and the look he gave me didn’t say ‘come ask me follow-up questions to your weirdo thoughts about my retro clothing choices/smoking habits/lawn-mowing preferences’.

then i came home and made some crazy awesome raw dessert food, chopped up and devoured a giant salad, was interviewed for the german edition of the financial times (due out in the next month), and bought a used longboard (pictured below). the surfboard will also help me to pretend that i’m living somewhere tropical, at least until i get to the water next weekend and it’s only 54°.

last night

jay — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 18:38:49 +0000

matt, eliza, jay @ 3min. and that’s matt next to the play button.

now i guess the only question is, what happens to joe the plumber? this election seemed like a referendum on him, and dude got trounced.

i’m watching the live feed of the nyc marathon. nbc is really trying to make the marathon a tv-friendly sport. it isn’t. and al trautwig (my least-favorite commentator now that john tesh retired? is dead?). they’re cutting it like it was an mtv video. the olympic footage was so much smoother, limited to overhead and side shots. the olympics also have the benefit of separate men’s and women’s races, so they didn’t have to do this lame split-screen shit. also, for the olympics, there were fewer than seven people commenting at one time. they could take a lesson from the tour de france about what it is to comment over a longish event — 1 or 2 guys in the booth, one of them older than george burns and both of them talking about the drinking they’re going to do after the race.

i ran 70 miles this week, and i’m not sure if i’m undertraining for a marathon i have no plans to run or overtraining for a half-marathon that i’m doing in five weeks. so yeah, the quantity of miles is too many and the quality miles too few. it maybe seems like a stupid move, but i am so 100% addicted to long miles right now that i’m powerless against it until the mileage taper starts in a week. this week: fewer total miles, more faster miles. 7ish per day instead of 14ish.

and nbc, stop it with the lame music that is only tangentially related to running. the eagles? jesus, dude. that sucks.

i’m late on this one, but whatevs. had shit to do.

when it was suggested by matt damon that this whole palin-as-vp thing was a bad disney movie, everyone laughed (if they weren’t too scared to laugh), a lot of people agreed, and a few made actual movie trailers. and that’s why i don’t get why everyone is so up in arms about the $150k spent by the rnc on a very special palin-family makeover, especially when everyone knows that a big shopping spree is part of any white-trash-to-better-dressed-white-trash movie — it’s the big transformation scene!

john mccain is now saying that the clothes will be donated to charity after sarah palin is done with them. aw. happy ending!
