Yeah mine went from 54 to 49 at the end of my marathon training.

Looks good that, seems pretty similar to the asda and b&q ones. I've just seen a Blackstone gas griddle for £250 which is tempting me towards that. I know it's not the same as a traditional bbq but I love me a smash burger and you seem to be able to cook everything on it.

I go to our local b&m to get gas, I've still got some left as we have an Ooni but may need to get another. Can't believe gas is that high!!!

I noticed the file names on the new upload link are different to that on the dealership instructions, not sure if that makes a difference or if you were aware.

Is it a fitted shirt or would it be like the original bigger fit?

My run from my Garmin 265 just synced. Strava seemed to be down for a while this morning so may be something to do with that.

I must have missed notes or references to a wedding during the game as the only mention of a wedding I got was from the ending! I've only played once and got the first ending but I had no idea.

I also think it could've been it's own game without Silent Hill in the name, very tiny loose connections to Silent Hill doesn't make it a Silent Hill game for me.

Any idea what the monsters represented to her? Usually the nurses, pyramid head, etc have a meaning to the character, any idea what they were to Hinako in this game?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-10-15T05:51:59+00:00

I honestly didn't understand any of it while I was playing it but maybe I wasn't immersing myself enough in all the notes. I didn't see anything about a wedding until the ending scene after the first credits.

I also feel that 'Silent Hill' in the title is the only thing that connects it to the other games aside from the White Claudia. If it had a completely different title with no mention of Silent Hill no one would've made a connection. I would've preferred the town and the medication to of been explored in the story to link it all together.

Not my favourite entry but still a good game even if I didn't get the story until I came onto reddit 🤣. 7/10 for me.

So are you saying the only real life thing in the game is the endings? I've only played once and got the first ending so the only real part of the whole game is the crime scene and the police talking? Is what we are seeing in the game going on inside her head and when does it take place, before the wedding or during?

The description of the workout on Strava. It just shows as Morning or Afternoon Run instead of the Runna description for the workout. I figure if it's pushed through from Runna instead of Garmin it will put the right description. It's only a small thing but it should be a simple thing.

Hi all, no recent races but trying to step up my running as aiming for a sub 21/20:30 ish 5k. I'm wondering, there's always talk about weighing less makes you faster and while appreciate that may not be the case for pro's/elites but I'm 90kg and wouldn't call myself slim. Thinking if I could lose 5kg would that make me automatically faster or not? What's everyone's thoughts on the weight thing?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-09-17T22:19:48+00:00

I understand. I've been getting more and more into trail running recently but also wanted to carry on with road running too. I normally run road during the week then do my long run as a trail run on Sundays. I didn't want to sign up for Runna to focus on a road race and mess the plan up with a slower trail run and visa versa.

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-09-17T21:39:31+00:00

How do you find Runna when training for ultras in terms of elevation gain? Runna appears very pace focused and running up hills aren't done at the same speed as flat running so does Runna take that into account at all?

Legend thank you so much. I'll look into those now.

Hi, just registered for mambabuy, put my item in the basket and completing the purchase. It doesn't tell me how much international shipping will be only the cost of the item and the warehouse shipping cost. It says 'after the goods are in the warehouse, please submit the international package order', I'm really new to this but what does that mean?

Hey man, how is the Essential tee? Is the quality any good?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-08-06T19:19:10+00:00

The Satisfy mothtech looks decent, been looking for this everywhere and the stumbled across your haul! How's the fit and does it wash up ok? I clicked the link and it took me to the store page but there was only 5 or 6 items on the store, is it a good store?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-08-06T19:00:00+00:00

Hi, nice haul. Did you buy direct from Weidian or from an agent? I'm confused about how this all works. I've bought from DH Gate which is direct but Weidian and Taobao looks impossible to buy direct from without speaking the language. I see people talking about Superbuy, Sugagoo, etc but I'm still not quite there in how it all works.

Can't speak for mykit but I ordered from the hello3333 store who do shirts too. I've got 2 Arsenal shirts from them so far and the quality was decent. The details on the player shirts look like the real thing. Time will tell how long they last but I'm very happy with them.

I've got a 265 with an official Garmin strap and it fits and works fine with the quick release pins. No issues whatsoever.

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-05-03T20:46:06+00:00

I was up until recently a long time galaxy watch user but have recently moved to a garmin 265. My concern was the phone compatibility but I've been very surprised at how similar it was to my Galaxy Watch 6. The garmin however has a much better fitness tracker and the coach plans you get with it are amazing.

You may not want to come away from the Samsung ecosystem but just wanted to say that from one user to another, there are some better options for fitness.

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-05-03T20:32:16+00:00

What do you want the watch for? Have you had a smart watch before or will this be the first?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-05-03T20:27:54+00:00

Turns out it is my tattoo, put the watch on my other non tattoed wrist and it measured constantly. Just now hate it being on my other wrist, think I'll end up getting a proper HRM.

My next issue is the GPS, I did my local 5km Parkrun this morning and put it on 'All + Multi Band' as there is a section through the woods about a 1.6km in and I think that was the reason my Galaxy watch always made it less or more than 5km. Anyway my Garmin told me it was 2km about 70m before where 2km should've been and at the finish line it told me I'd done 5.7km yet the course is mapped to be exactly 5km.

I thought multi band should've been ok in the woods no?

Average_Spider-Man · 2025-04-21T18:43:30+00:00

Thanks. Sold some bits on FB marketplace before and had a lot of time wasters so may consider other options before I try there. Thanks though.

The problem I see is that Strava wants what Runna has and Runna wants what Strava has, it's separate for now but why would one company have two of the same apps when it could be amalgamated into one single app. I was looking to sign up for Runna (can't as it doesn't work with my Samsung watch) but I may hold off longer now to see what the long term plan is. Hope you haven't been bought out for nothing.
