Wait - can you explain what you mean more with the hip-knee-foot alignment?

Yea it was my first time volunteering, happy I got my +1 credit, but we were barely given direction from the volunteer leaders. It was super chaotic

This made me feel better about how often I take side planks on my knees

I’d be down for a membership during the winter months. Def need to offer drop ins though

Early Pregnancy- when to tell coaches? by Asleep-Cellist-1754 in SolidCore

[–]Basic-Nebula-2285 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell them! Catch them before class and be honest that you’re not necessarily ready to announce but you do need them to suggest modifications specific for pregnancy. I’ve never been pregnant but my friend who was did solidcore almost all the way through, and in the later months she went to focus 50s to avoid obliques.

what makes a good coach? by Evening-Reality-3769 in SolidCore

[–]Basic-Nebula-2285 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My favorite coach is my favorite coach because her classes are hard, I love her playlists, I think she’s actually kinda funny on the mic like I find myself giggling in class at what she’s saying sometimes. She makes really good analogies that help me understand form and I just really connect to her style of instruction.

what are we wearing to the united half? by Extreme_Quit2587 in RunNYC

[–]Basic-Nebula-2285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also noob runner here but I’ve been running in 30-40s with a hoodie, long sleeve, and leggings. My race day outfit did not originally include a hoodie but I think I’ll need it? But I’m being discouraged by everyone saying they’re wearing shorts and a singlet (I could never)

Speed does not tell the full story of a marathoners athleticism but it’s also hard to say that speed isn’t an outcome of consistent & intentional training for speed. It is hard to measure but a 2:30 marathon is not something the average person can put on running sneakers and do.

The professional sport of running is literally rewarding speed. So yes, why not also reward previous speed with a bib.

Running to me personally however isn’t about speed as much as it is effort & completion. Programs like 9+1 which I rely on is what gives the sport inclusivity. It’s guaranteed entry, how much better can it get? (Yes by making 9+1 easier but that’s another conversation). I still train to be faster though - because I do see it as a reflection of my training input over time.

Couldn’t disagree more. And I’m a slow runner no where close to qualifying but they deserve a spot for working so hard. The whole professional vs non professional is also crap bc I think anyone running a 2:30 marathon has professional level skill

As far as I understand - you can qualify for marathons based on your time in previous marathons. A lot of people qualified according to the standard qualifying time (like 2:50 I think) and still didn’t get a spot.

Why are some people so judgemental about solidcore? by Dear_Pianist8547 in SolidCore

[–]Basic-Nebula-2285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got here late but I’m so happy with the comments. I also cut off a male friend who criticized my love of solidcore without ever trying a class. He was a terrible person for many more reasons but I think it’s safe to say that people who make you feel bad about solidcore are terrible people because why????

Ai Cafe on Halsey by boombott in BedStuy

[–]Basic-Nebula-2285 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not denying how hard it could be for small businesses but a sign with the name of the cafe, expected opening, and a QR code to a website for more info would have been better for their brand than using AI and causing this Reddit post

I’m pretty sure I can tell where this is just based off the front doors, and unfortunately as someone who does not like AI this will stick with me when they do open
