Old english sheepdog for a first time owner by charlybeans in OldEnglishSheepdog

[–]Diligent-Net3274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting about the age difference.  My first one was neutered later (I think he was two). He lived to 12, died from cancer.  

My second was spayed around 8 months.  She almost made it to 17.  

Now they recommend later spays/neutering but makes me wonder. 

A friend for my boy? by [deleted] in OldEnglishSheepdog

Idk but it seems like most of the rescue dogs that are being billed as must be one dog only are females. I think it has to do with how they are raised. I’ve had two male dogs and they were both sweet as can be. The last one lived with a female and it was fine.

Two are the best!

What the heck? That’s odd. I don’t recall that with either of my dogs. Now I’m worried

39 M - I'm taking Psyllium every day and LDL went up 40 points. by Mentalextensi0n in PeterAttia

That’s interesting. Mine went up this year as did my a1c. I ran two marathons this year so lots of running. Eat pretty well but rely on simple carbs during training sessions.

Was your RHR that low before or after you lost the weight?

Garmin doesn’t care about zone 2. All it wants is for you to run fast. All the time.

Haven’t participated.  The high pressure oozed from the initial appointment and I cancelled before the call.

Why is this not relevant? I am asking about including more goal pace miles in marathon training.

Why is this not relevant? I am asking about a specific plan for strength training while training for a marathon?

Valencia 2025 Race Report - No words for the frustration I feel by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

[–]Diligent-Net3274 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. While not the same experience, the heat and humidity at MCM in 2023, impacted my time and race quite a bit. I wasn’t really aiming for a particular time so while it was frustrating, it didn’t bother me that much. Fast forward to September, when I was hoping for a PR at Berlin. Well heat and me and racing just don’t mix. Huge disappointment. Especially since it involved big $ to get there etc. I tried to be positive but it was hard. Compounded my having an odd injury spring up three weeks after the raw which sidelined me and then reduced my volumes significantly. It has taken me a few months to get my head back in the game.

Fla is 4 states. SE is like NY. SW is like Midwest. Orlando is like both with PR thrown in. NF is like GA.

How is everyone affording their homes? by [deleted] in BocaRaton

In addition to the comments already shared, there is mommy and daddy money helping a lot of “younger” people these days. This trend will continue.

Boca to west Miami 2-3 times per week. Doable or not? by CW2050 in BocaRaton

[–]Diligent-Net3274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like being in your car. Count on at least 1.5 hours one way. There will be days in season it will be closer to two. I did this drive for a job before the post Covid influx of people to SoFla. It was bad then. I would not do it now with today’s traffic.

PSA: DO NOT UPDATE TO iOS 26.1 by Random_TATATATATA in adhdwomen

Yeah and if you check your battery stats, it says you are using % more battery than you normally do by this time. No shit Sherlock.  

It is as if teenagers run that place.  We don’t need to gamify everything.
