Sleep — Night before
8h 24min · 23:33→08:56 · REM: 11% · Deep: 37% · HRV: 107ms · Resting HR: 52 · Score: 90/100
Exceptional sleep despite context. Deep sleep at 37% (3h 6min actual) is the highest recorded — deep continuity scored a perfect 100. Light sleep finally normalized at 52% (under the 55% threshold for the first time). REM was suppressed at 11% (only 54 min), likely from the weed. Woke up mid-night (as reported) but fell back asleep. HRV at 107ms is in baseline range — no hangover penalty. Score of 90 / top 1% is the best yet.
How it felt
Yesterday got really high on weed, got home a bit late. Woke up in the middle of the night and fell asleep again. Today morning ate my breakfast and since I had no tasks at work, thought I might as well go for a run.
The watch said this is my PB for 3 km. I stood at a red light for ~40 seconds — so the real pace was even faster. Otherwise the run felt solid.

3K progression
| Date | Distance | Time | Pace | Avg HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jul 1 | 3.04 km | 19:11 | 6'19" | 155 bpm |
| Jul 20 | 3.01 km | 17:55 | 5'57" | 158 bpm |
Verdict: 3K PB — and it would have been even faster without the red light (~40 sec idle → adjusted ~17:15, pace ~5'44"/km). Compared to the Jul 1 3K: 1:16 faster over the same distance at only +3 bpm HR. That's a massive efficiency gain in 3 weeks.
The numbers are clean: 5'57" average, touched 3'58" instantaneous (matching your all-time fastest pace from the Jul 8 rage-run, but this time in a controlled 3K rather than a 1.5K burnout). Cadence at 171 with 98cm stride is efficient. Max HR 170 is well-managed — you're working hard but not redlining. HR recovery at 25 bpm is back to your best levels (matches Jul 5 & Jul 10).
The sleep paradox is interesting: weed suppressed REM (11%) but boosted deep sleep to 37% — your highest ever. Deep continuity at 100 is perfect. The mid-night awakening is a known cannabis effect (rebound arousal as it metabolizes), but you fell back asleep. The overall recovery was clearly sufficient — you ran a PB on it. Not advocating weed as a sleep aid (REM is important for learning/memory), but for raw physical recovery before a run, that deep sleep delivered. 🏃🔥
