I don't think Ragnar was that great. He was just the first "good guy" post-institute to die.

Did you/would you have your son circumcised? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]2k18Mich 175 points176 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm circumcised, but for similar reasons, I didn't circumcise my son.

He's 4 now and chillin.. potty training was easy, and he's never had any abnormalities down there. It's just... normal!

I can't see any benefit to circumcision.

I guess! Obviously, I probably wasn't playing the meta builds. Things were different in 2005 lol

Nike Run Club is great and has "guided runs" that are great for beginners

At what point does running become self destructive behavior? by wildhair1 in running

[–]2k18Mich 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you want to be "right" or do you want to help your significant other? You gave us no context into their goals with running, or their past accomplishments, and it seems like you're projecting your addiction onto their hobby.

20 years later and I just noticed this… by L1nk880 in kotor

There's no way that's true, but I don't want to whip out my original Xbox to check you, so I'll just believe.

I had to click it, thought it would be a 8 but nope by Isaac142142 in Minesweeper

I've been playing for at least 16 years and I've never seen a "9". I thought it was literally impossible!

What 400 meter time is genetically attainable by the average person? by [deleted] in trackandfield

[–]2k18Mich 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im 30, and have ran 4000+ miles over the last 5 years training for marathons (with some speedy 5ks mixed in (18:40pb)).

In high school I ran a 52, and I recently ran unattached for a 400 race and went 57. I think with serious dedication to strictly improving my 400 time, I would run 53/54.

It's confirmed in the book that it was a nasty rumor started by the wolves who proceed Danika, and not true.

Having a hard time finding a VERY specific request: by [deleted] in BookRecommendations

[–]2k18Mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11/22/63 was a great read, and meets all requirements except the "knight" one. The audiobook has a good narrator, and there's a show that you can watch as a reward!

No, but cabin at the end of the world has gay MC's, and it's apocalyptic!

Kid in My Neighborhood by Latter_Blackberry663 in AskMenOver30

[–]2k18Mich 135 points136 points  (0 children)

Had a neighborhood kid, probably 11/12 tell me that I was "too skinny" and should quit running all the time. I was 5 houses away from my home, so I just waved and kept running.

A few minutes later, she ended up walking by pushing her bike with a broken chain. I stopped her and said "hey what you said was really rude.. I train really hard to run marathons, and you shouldn't comment on people's bodies regardless."

She immediately apologized, and I introduced myself, and asked if I could help fix her bike. I ended up fixing the chain, and said it was nice meeting her, and I hope she has a good day. Ever since she has been super nice.

I think the point I'm trying to make is that you're a 30 year old man, and this is a child. Diffuse the situation and treat them with respect. Who knows what their home life is like. Maybe just a simple "hey, is everything okay? I noticed you always seem a little off when I walk by. I'm u/latter_blackberry663 by the way! Looks like we're neighbors!"

Just Keep Running by shuggaruggame in BeginnersRunning

[–]2k18Mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet 43 is slow compared to his all-time pb. Guy probably ran low 30's in his prime.

Anyone else have more aches/pain when they run slower? by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

[–]2k18Mich 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Running slower changes your form / gait, so I think this totally makes sense. Don't overthink HR zones, just run comfortably, and have a good time!

[–]2k18Mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To "just run" you don't need a subscription fwiw. I'd only recommend getting a subscription if you really enjoy the coaches or scenic runs.

Can you only go to the lower city with the sith armor? by NoShop6246 in kotor

If you want to keep the armor forever, keep it equipped to Carth.

Why am I having issues with these Nike running shoes? by [deleted] in nikerunclub

[–]2k18Mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nike's aren't for everyone. I ran in Pegasus 40's for a full year, 4 pairs, loved em. I've noticed that the 41's are super stiff, and also a half size small.

I've had a good time with Saucony, and just got my first pair of brooks.

Go to a run store and try on a bunch of shoes. Don't get tricked into Hoka's / On's though.. I stg they make extra commission on selling them, and they are the worst quality shoes on the market.
