THE WRITE-UP.

machine-written, human-checked
Eight sessions, 5h 24m, and 16 PBs fell out of it, which is bloody ridiculous for a week that was mostly lifting heavy things and flailing about in workouts. Two weight sessions, three workouts, one crossfit and two runs, with a 3 day streak in the middle where I just kept turning up. All sports combined only came to 11.8 km, but a 1K in 5:30, a mile in 8:59 and a 5K in 28:41 say the legs were quietly up to something. Legs and arms took the most stick, 2653 kcal went up in smoke, and the shaking was very much worth it. Nothing here is fast on paper, but the PB count doesn't care one bit. Sixteen PBs in a week from someone who just came for a lil sesh.
