Week Changed Up

Week Changed Up

waiting on the wife to finish her stretching video..she's following this girl on YouTube...an educated girl up in the Bay area..one of the few I've seen...that I can agree with on everything she teaches. It's yoga..but more anatomy oriented...problem solving

my body is so tight. i was stretching and rolling balls last night on the yoga mat. there are so many issues with my hamstrings/hip flexors/..etc etc...3 days off the trails..and i feel them more...but yeah..I have to stay on top of everything..and stretch daily. One thing is certain: Running like I do...you will learn each and every muscle you have..and their specific function. You will learn each action and its reaction...and you will learn this through the walls of pain. it's not an opinion

so yeah...I was unable to get out yesterday...shit I had to catch up on. Going to run with the girl..when she's done with her video. Run with her then continue on and run by myself...get in some miles. Weather is looking brilliant coming up to the weekend...my preferred weather..be out there through Sunday

Blog this shit out..



^ Organized Mess: Flowering Queen Moxies and a Cyclone..pulled out of the flower studio so one of them could be transplanted and put into her flower position. The others needed to be brought out..just so I could get in and get her out and in.

* With the Queen Moxies I've been keeping them in 1.7 gal squares until they are about 30 days into flower (today's girl is on day 28)...then transplanting into the 5 gal smarties..and tying them into the rafters. Just how I'm doing it.



^ These are all the Old Time Moonshine that were flowered in 1.7 gal squares. Day 56. Two are tied/elevated into the flower studio in front of HPS bulbs...and the other two get pulled out each day and placed under 800 watts of MH spectrums. It's more a space thing..than anything else.

Nothing special about these expressions. They seem to split between greens and purples....a couple of each looks like. They smell wonderful...hash-fruit-berry-....the Blue aromas/perfume. None of the plants are big...I know they are only in 1.7 gal...but they were not stretchy or real vigorous at any time. Again...pretty typical..and Blue.

* Looking forward to the hash. I'll make some great hash off the sugar leaves. I'd say harvests will start in another few days. There is one that can be harvested then...and there after...they should roll in by day 65.

One More then I'm gone

One More then I'm gone



^ Old Time Moonshine....o yes....this girl is a grower. The "A" expression (flanked by Queen Moxies that are not elevated)...30's and building fast. In a 5 gal smartie...still elevated on a milk crate...starting to weight up

* One of the better blasting full blooded Blues I have had. She didn't stretch much..but went wide..on thick branches with plenty of exposed bud sites. As far as power growing...yes..this girl does that. Looks like she'll yield well...and looks like she'll have some solid flowers.

I can't really get in there...and smell her yet. I'm sure she'll be a stinker..as here sisters..are stinky...I'll just assume she'll be as well.

ok...I'm out...

Taking a beating so far this week

Taking a beating so far this week

The wife has been gimped the last 2 wks by a lower back/hamstring issue. It was not run caused..actually pulled on a hike..but none the less..she's been hurting a bit. Our run today became more a 7 mile hike/run..because she did not trust her recovery enough to run the tougher sections..so hiked ran hiked ran...while I would run out front for a ways..then turn around a go back to her...or find a rock to stretch on...or do a slow long set of push ups...

but I never could get into a running rhythm of my own...mostly running a bored pace..then becoming bored..I started bouncing off stuff...rocks and roots..bounce from side to side on a trail walls..where erosion has made narrow 1/2 pipes out of a single track

fucking off...bouncing...stoned..pushing off my knees into full extensions....

tweaked an already and forever tweaked left knee..on a hard extension..shot that pain that makes you yell and cringe up..

knew I wasn't going to land on it..so let myself fall back onto my ass. Not a hard fall (if you skateboard and know what Forevers in a pool are...that's kind of what I was doing)......but the knee pain took me a minute to fix. My left knee has been tweaked for decades..something torn or pulled..sharp pain to the front and outside then it feels like there is a cramp in my entire knee..which in itself..does not hurt...and can be run out. I run the "cramps" out all the time...but when I hit off the knee just so..that sharp pain hobbles me.

and..of course..once you cater to something...the terrain digs in on it. The terrain knows when I'm wounded.

The rest of the run/hike....kind of just sucked. I tweaked my knee 4 or 5 more times before we got home. Had intended to run some solo miles...but decided to come home first..have some tea..unfuck my piss attitude about my left knee and breathe a while

some days. some days you must approach differently. Regain focus

* Noting that the pain in my left knee started reappearing more frequently (meaning I hit it more often) when I started running in the Altra Olympus (the max padded) shoes. Might be that I'm running differently in these shoes...and that my body has to reconfigure a bit. It's not so easy finding the perfect shoe...telling you that..love the Altra Lone Peak 2.0s...they don't bother my knee..but sometimes my feet still get wrecked after long or aggressive runs...whereas..in the Olympus my feet feel great but my knee is sore...

see if it continues. I've been wearing the hell out of these Olympus and the more I get used to them..the more I like them...but if they are the cause for me tweaking my knee so often..no deal...I'll have to put them down. For now...I'll say..I'm still getting used to them. Might take a pair before I'm there...

Stay well bro. I don't wanna see any injuries like this, no set backs, moving forward....perpetually.

Is it possible this shoes are so cushy you are gettin lazy with your leading foot placement?

Could be. I was considering that..because of the cushioning...I'm straight legging into the ground more on down hills...catching rocks with my heels. Hard to say. Might not be the shoes at all.

The knee tweak has been with me since I was a teenager. It's more an annoyance than anything else. It hurts like a bastard when I hit on it wrong..but most of the time it doesn't bother me. Like now..this morning..I'm not gimping or in pain.

Skateboarding or surfing tends to tweak it more often than running. Especially skateboarding. When I skated a lot..it used to hurt daily. One of the reasons I got away from the skating and into the trail running was because I couldn't skate the way I used to..or I could..but just was no longer willing to keep tweaking my knee.

I'm not sure if there is a slight tear in the knee or if the pain is a symptom of my body being out of alignment or my hamstrings being overly tight and pulling on everything in an awkward twist. When I'm stretching...I feel like I'm stretching to bring my entire body into perfect alignment.....but anyway..

I've been dealing with this knee for a long long time. It's never been such a problem that I've actually had it x-rayed or even sought medical help. It never failed me on any physicals. I went through 4yrs of humping packs for the Marine Corps...and a career humping packs for the Forest Service...and while it hurt sometimes...it never stopped me from performing...so...it can't be all that bad.

No worries...this is not the kind of thing that keeps me from training/racing. It's just a factor I have to deal with.

* I can't remember any one incident (from when I was a teenager) where it all started. I'd taken a lot of hits and falls as a kid..but none of them stand out as the single incident that started the knee tweaking.

** I have a weird body: I'm right handed but left footed. I should surf/skate goofy foot...but I don't. I've considered that because my stronger leg is left and stronger arm is right...maybe I'm twisted and pulling against myself somehow. I lean to the idea that this ailment is from an internal twisting...and is why I have more issues with my left side. My left side is tighter and cramps more often..all things left ache more often.

*** Since I did spend many a year wearing heavy and heeled boots ...with heavy packs on my back...humping up and down steep ass mountains...carrying chainsaws and weapons (sad to admit) day after day after day....I'm sure none of those things did me any favors...balancing out my frame. I feel like I'm still recovering from all those years of abuse. Decades of it.

EDIT: almost every night I awake on the living room floor..in front of the fireplace..on a yoga mat...then take myself to bed. I'm on the mat for as long or even longer...than I'm on the runs..generally. After some time...I've found myself obsessed with stretching pushing pulling...the body audibly cracks (like the popping of wood in the fireplace)....sets and unsets..

it's hard for me to get comfortable sitting/laying on soft surfaces...and I have not slept on my left side in years. I'm at all times working up to these walls..these limiting factors..sometimes getting through is going to be impossible..the concessions the only route..like a toll to be payed. not always going to get the better deal. all i can understand to do is to dream bigger and put in more work..keep coming back for more

Day Down

Day Down

...into the Anza Borrego desert. The Old West Trails 50k and 30k took place today. Got up way before the sun..drove myself down there..and volunteered at an aid station. Way cool race....as long as..you can manage some heat and deep sand. Not that much in elevation change..the race is an out and back following along the base of the mountains.

I thought about racing it...but I'm playing it conservative. All day I got to look up at the east side of the Laguna Mountains...rising thousands of feet above the desert floor...and stare up at the passages I'll be racing up (twice) next month. That they are barren walls of rock...beat unmercifully by desert sun and winds...totally exposed...naked....but for some light chaparral...can not go unnoticed. I thought it best..to stick to my planned agenda...and save myself for those races.

Volunteering (stood with a clipboard at an aid station and recorded bib #s as the racers came in) if you're not racing is not expected....but it is not frowned upon either. There is a lot of work that goes into these races...I'll say that...so much you can only imagine...and it's all done by the community. Nobody is getting a pay check...it's totally volunteer. Months of planning goes into setting these events up....sponsors...permits..course mapping...course marking..etc etc..

* actually for the SD 100 (if you are local) it's a requirement to put in 6 hrs of trail maintenance or 6 hrs of volunteer work at an event. They don't hold a gun to your head...but it's the right thing to do anyway...got to give back. Honor system.

** I can tell you that aid stations and their crews are motivators. They've really helped me...and I felt good doing the same for others. I was cheering those racers on for hours today. Pump them up...fuel them up...push them on. "Charge it" "Get'em" "get on that shit" "you're going home...hit it hit it"...it was fun..seeing it from that perspective. gives me a better understanding and more respect for the entire deal

*** I'm racing this event next year....going to go down there and camp out...then race. It was a party....race started and finished in a full on camp ground..with many of the community coming in Friday night...camping..then racing Saturday..then back to camping into Sunday. There was a kitchen/cooks..a store...showers etc...so you know..people were partying. Fully festive

All the events are similar in that you run a lot of miles for time...but they are each unique. The crowd is mostly the same..but then...the race and its atmosphere...change the dynamics. Anything in the desert...makes things a bit crazier. If you've never been in the desert...it's kind of hard to explain it to you. All the sun, heat, and expanded views...can get you loose in the head. I love the desert more...the older I get. Love the people..love the attitudes..love the skies





EDIT: Fuck the Pacific Crest Trail Association (a well funded special interest group). They are lobbying hard (along with the Forest Service?) to ban ultra racing on the PCT. If they have their way there will be no racing allowed on the entire trail. That would pretty much...fuck up...most of the races in San Diego county....and fuck up...many many other classic races...further north. It's not a short trail.

They are claiming that racing trashes the trail. It doesn't. Much effort goes into clean up. I suppose that next they'll ban hikers...because...if one were to make the argument...that certainly the 1000's upon 1000's of the hikers who walk the trail every year...were probably more to blame for trashing the trail than race events...well..they'd have to ban them too.

From my own experience....as a body who practically lives on the southern tip of the PCT...and who is on many other Federal and State trails..all the time: I don't see much trash on the PCT. I see more trash on other trails. The PCT appears well maintained and clean...as far as...I've ever seen. Also...Ultra runners/racers are pretty eco-minded people..not out there to trash our playground. Therefore...I'm saying...their claims are weaksauce..there's something else underlying their lobbying

That government agency and a special interest group doesn't want events held on the PCT...is really....fucking bullshit. The thing was designed to be used...enjoyed....

people people people.....what the fuck is your problem? Get out from behind your desks

sounds a lot like the race i volunteered at,same sort of thing,a tent city and some rvs here and there,i expect some of the larger events are even more fun...it will help in the racing im sure to have seen the event from the other side,the folks who put on the new mexico endurance series do a good job with the events...im going to try and race a bunch of them next year on local amateur throw together teams...some 12 and 24 hour races...short course lap sorts of things...really its the adventure races im looking to,one person,one bike,50-100 miles to cross...

I'm so far gone now. Over the ledge. Into the deep end.

These things I'm doing...are so very very cool. I knew this would happen once I started branching out into the organized world. It's all I'm into anymore. Every time I look now...I see more shit I want to do. I'm scheduling my entire life around training for and racing these events. But...I really am being calculating about it all...not looking to derail myself and get myself maimed. Though...on the other hand...I'm going to push myself way beyond any of my comfort zones. Comforts....are no longer there....out the open window.

* I can hear chanting native americans...right now...down the road a piece. don't know exactly where that's coming from...but there is something going on. First time I've ever heard them here...from my house. either celebration or someone passed...guessing

yup,i may even find myself riding in cars again...seems like i could hop into racing this spring and summer pretty easily since i know enough of the locals in the "like to ride hard and expand their limits but still want to have fun and drink beer" crowd....the guys and gals i see basically every tuesday night ride...there is a 12 hour event coming up right around my birthday...4 person team means only 3 hours of riding,probably means 3 laps or around 30 miles of riding,i can do that on a full touring rig without even eating....


just wrapping up the last of the seed runs for the season,gonna be too hot to bother here soon...except i popped some c99 f3's for giggles...the blue sat 2.2 is some nice sativa smoke,really stinks...trying to reveg two of them..aside from that the only keepers i really found and strictly as stash plants were the purple frostbyte and mirre but im sticking with the gorilla glue and the glue cross i made to pay the bills...these seed runs have been killing me...nice smoke and all,just not enough to keep up with the bike jones...

I hear you. Seed runs are gambles...consumers of space, money, and time...without any promises. I enjoy growing the Queen Mox clone more than anything else...think the world of her flowers and hash. Decided a while back...that I'm in a new era concerning my indoor gardening...in which everything that comes out of it is coming through the Mox Mox door. I guess that puts me not far from the Chemical Sour door...to where my preference in high, flavor, and potency expresses itself. The Moxie clone does it for me..but you know..I'll keep looking for something...anything..that can light me up.

I've seen so many plants...and I've seen so many..multiple times. Even seed runs get monotonous. I feel that it's accurate to say..that one must have vast numbers to make it a realistic venture. Waiting on luck is not very professional...like pounding yourself relentlessly against the odds.

I don't have the time any longer...nor the masochistic need..to keep plowing through the seed collection. It's fun and all...educational..but it takes too much of everything to keep swinging for the fences..like that. I've payed my dues...and still working my own creations..but I've eased up on the pace..in which..I work them.

Like the running...the gardening has become more calculating...less wasteful...long game minded.

yup,the garden is there to buy me a lifestyle...which also happens to include keeping my jars full,thus the seed runs...but first and foremost it needs to be easy to deal with and not suck up too much time...aside from trimming...yeah,im gonna get the med card and garden paperwork,one less thing to dwell on,i mainly deal with card holders anyway so its all quasi-legal in that regard,or will be once i have a card...just 4 big plants,pretty easy to deal with,or even 2 jumbo plants...either way,i can make it work for me...
now that my dirt skill set is good enough to keep me from getting myself hurt and i have the bikes honed in its time for me to finally get around to what i meant to be doing all this time,got too distracted by the easy fix of trail riding,which is hugely fun and allowed me to better develop the skills and confidence needed for more back country stuff...

^ I have a couple different brands of electrolyte capsules. You have to be very careful with those. If you are popping them and not getting enough water...they'll mess you up. Some people (had this discussion with a medical tech at the race) believe they are more detrimental than good....but I feel that..when used at the correct time..with enough water...yeah they can pull you back together. I'll continue to use them.

* I'm not training this week...probably until Saturday. There is a training run for the PCT 50M then...might hit that up.

Busting out some work all this week. Haven't busted out work in a while. I have stuff lined up..getting it done..so I don't have to stress in April. Had a real productive day....forgot how fast and well I can get things done...when I'm set in work mode. Like a machine.

I'm dealing with a couple things physically:

1. My right quads and hip flexor/upper IT band have been numb since last night. Never experienced this before...not freaking me out..actually wish my entire body could feel like this. No discoloration or anything....just functionally numb....like there was an injection of novocaine applied. It's strange...and like I said..kind of desirable.

2. I had a hemorrhoid develop over the weekend. Have not gotten one in a long time.....the pressure on the nerves..annoying..and perhaps the cause of the numbness in my right leg? Don't know...but the conditions started at the same time. I fucking hate getting these things. Caused by the stresses of lifting the legs...torquing the hills...pretty much..by the overall stresses applied to the body

3. left knee still tender...and right foot cramps through out the day. I'm stretching every night. Still passing out on my yoga mat.


Now that April can be seen approaching it has occurred to me that I'm going to get my fucking ass beat down. I mean beat down. Looking up at the east side of the mountain range the other day...I realized that...I'm going to leave chunks of myself all over the courses. I've resolved myself to this truth. No hype.

when these races are under my belt...I'll be a different runner. this is make or break time...this is the massive leap onto a higher level. No short cuts...no short steps....no nothing...when I've finished these races..I'm going to be different. I'm paying my dues in full...paying them off. I have no doubts that I'm ready for this next progression.

these tabs dissolve in water so i drank down a liter during a break,im sure sitting down and stretching out helped with the cramping as well which wasnt bad,just that im on the edge of cramping up feeling...i went through like 4-5 liters of fluids during the ride,and the last 14 miles was basically all downhill,windy though till i made the final turn for home,that part was thankfully easy...

hemorrhoids are even less fun on the bike...i got a bit chafed today,wrecked once,otherwise feeling fine..hungry of course...

Something to say about Changelings while....

Something to say about Changelings while....

..waiting for some rain. Down from 40% to 20%...with possible T-cells. From my vantage..to the west..the clouds line up..so maybe..hopefully..our parched lands get a little something from the skies

Week is going well. Have today to trim up some Old Time Moonshine flowers...then back into the tin pan tomorrow and maybe even Sunday...not Saturday though..as I'm taking that day to do an organized training run on the PCT

Haven't run in about a week? Something like that. I can't run and work at the same time. The work physically drains me in a different way. It's like cross training. But anyways

I'm healing up a bit. The left knee has stopped aching...the hemorrhoid (sorry) is disappearing....but my right leg still has the same numbness. My feet too...are not as sore.

It's almost a New Year.......spring about to kick off

...O the Changeling



^ This Queen Moxie clone is on day 55. I've shown a top flower and the gut (middle) flowers.

This is one of the flower structures she shows. I'd guess that environmental factors lead her to show one way....or another way..because often times she'll express cotton ball flowers which kind of look block like at the top..and other times she'll throw really long foxtails (you could roll a couple into a perfect joint) out of all her tops....just depends

My rooms do not stay at consistent temps. I don't even measure heat...well..not true..there is a thermometer in the veg studio...but not one in the flower studio. Low relative humidity is consistent though...light controls are not consistent (I'm the timer...sometimes I'm late or early by up to a 1/2 hr..or if I have something to do..I'll shut them off hrs early))...12/12 or 11/13..depending on the time of year

No matter. The flowers reek...no matter how they express. Sometimes I walk into a cold/cool dark studio with the exhaust off for 15 minutes..to turn on the day time..and get blown away by the smells of skunk, vomit, baby poo, with a bit of fruit...and I'm going.."jesus, man..." almost holding my nose..then I'm drawn in to the complexity of those aromas..becoming like "wow..that's so good"....the aromas plants can come up with and make awesome..is worth noting.....Changelings of form and aroma...to take shit and make it rich...to take flowers and make art

I was thinking that I'm probably not a very good indoor grower. My rooms are tight but I'm not sure my methods are sound. One of the reasons that I love the Queen Mox clone so much is that she hangs with me...she rides along with the inconsistencies..the inorganic salts(?)...the less than professional..less than perfect environment

...she's a bit sensitive..but that fits well with me. She's the same girl I've always known...but she changes to fit her time and place. If you have ever found an expression that you have felt passion and affection for...you can understand. Some plants and people are made for each other...as some people are made for each other...it's all part of a tapestry



^ Old Time Moonshine "A" expression on day 46. I'm doing a good job on this one. At this time I'm considering when i want to kick off flush. Soon though....next few days. She's foul(ish) berry stinker.



^ Also on day 46: Cyclone on her 1st clone run. You'll remember that Cyclone is either a self of the Queen Mox clone or intersex pollen from the Hell Queen clone (Hell Mox)....she's the one that seemed a bit Blue in her seed run.

Stands straight up (once tied to rafters) easier than the Queen Moxie clone...really nice structure for my style of vert growing. Flowers are smallish..triangle formed...numerous...resinous. She's not that stinky yet...but still has a ways to go....I'm studying her....objective..calculating..giving her a shot at space

TOP 10 finishers ages of last weeks race

1. 43
2. 45
3. 32
4. 54
5. 46
6. 59
7. 33
8. 53
9. 63
10. 35

All their times were faster than what I think I could do presently. I'd have made the top 20 by my estimation and past times. Would not have placed in my age group even. I've run with a few of those dudes. One of them is a legend in the sport.

I plan on running until I can no longer do it....but from what I believe...and from what I'm being exposed to since I started racing is...I have a lot more in my tank. It's there. I have the vision and it's expanding outward

Old Time Moonshine nuggets

Old Time Moonshine nuggets



^ These are freshly manicured (wet manicure) nuggets from one of the plants that I flowered in a 1.7 gal square. Nothing wrong with these... a fruity berry blue expression...

in my opinion...they are standard purple expressed flowers. Nothing stand out..figuring that plants I selected for the 5 gal smart pots..were chosen because I thought more of them...than this plant...and if that "A" expression (showed in my last post) continues doing what she does..I'll have been justified....and then...if the trifoliate becomes something...I'll be even further justified

we'll see. time tells

EDIT: One thing I like to see on Blue plants is a bronze/gold stalk when they are in flower. The longer they flower...the deeper the color. I've found solid expressions in those colored stalks...and they look way cool. Some look like gold. The "A" expression is showing a bronze stalk...and the trifoliate (which is not even budding yet) is showing gold quickly. Seeing that color on the trifoliate gave me a good feeling. I'm swinging for the fence with that plant...saying she'll (still can't tell) back up being the top selection. It'll crack me up if it ends up being a male...but I think it will sex female. all the others did

I'm not claiming anything on the colors...just that I like them and have had success with them. No science at all.

So much shit going on in this thread I can get down with.

Pabs- My hemorrhoid flare up a couple months back... sucked. Been 10-15 years since it acted up.
I'm so jealous of your Queen Mox. All the work you put in= grail. I 'm assuming.

Unc- I've been on a seed run since 2008. Rooted 15 or so clones in the last 7 years and 10 of those have been in the last month. I'm tired of searching for a while. Locking in some moms after I finish this test run of Dcong x Bangi Haze. I want some consistency in my grows, I'm tired these days.

I'd chat more guys, but I can't type and have 3 kids & a wife to love these days .
Wish I could post more, so much interests me in this thread and others.
