TB Operator C1 W1 D3 70% week i guess :D
Highbar SQ 3x5 @ 160lbs
Weighted Chin BW W/ 5lbs added
CGBP 3x5 @ 125lbs
Deadlift 1x5 @ 230lbs
still been walking a lot at work.

I am signed up for a half marathon which is on May 20th of 2023
I have 38 weeks from today to prep for it and i have never run more than 5 miles at a time; walking yes running no.
The plan is to start capacity and Alex Bromley's bullmastiff program in the next 3 weeks; I should be able to manage both since i won't be working 50 hours a week anymore only 40.
After October 9th i am done working so i can dedicate more time to training.

The plan is to focus on putting on weight while running Bullmastiff and capacity for 12 weeks-ish, after that i will transition into velocity(likely going on maintenance) for 9-18 weeks while i only need to run 13.1 miles i do think it would be really cool to finish the 20-mile benchmark or 27 mile challenge.
the 27-mile challenge strikes me as really cool because Madeline island(the island the half marathon is on) has a 27.5-mile coast road that wraps around the whole island so that would be a cool place to do it

After velocity depending on how much time i have left until the half marathon i will likely use the no ruck peaking part of outcome outlined in gp.
in all honesty, this is probably overkill it's 13 miles on a fairly flat island but I think I need to pay my endurance dues since i have neglected it for a while besides what i do at work and i am very excited to start.

AM
TB Operator C1 W2 D1 80%

Highbar SQ 3x5 @ 185lbs it moved pretty slow but it moved.
Bench 3x5 @ 140lbs this moved nicely surprisingly.
Neutral Grip Chin 3x5 W/ 25lbs added. bw is sitting around 160-165 and it called for 190lbs.
the session felt good overall considering i had some soreness from yesterday.
Which is why i decided to go for a run.
PM
TB Capacity W1D1
6.84-mile trail run on the CAMBA trail "tsuga daddy".
time was 1:04:35 W/ a 9:26/mi pace.
elevation gain of 840 ft
it wasn't easy by any stretch but I wasn't killing myself either I will likely still do capacity even though technically I have passed the benchmark.
