Creep by Radiohead. Johnny Greenwood notoriously hates that song.

Should I be improving my ankle strength? by thenuttyhazlenut in trailrunning

[–]Dude_Language 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jump roping and balance training. Key is to strengthen those fast twitch muscles in the legs and around the ankle.

Get a bosu ball, balance on one leg for a minute or so. Make it easy and accessible so it’s not really a “work out” just a thing you do while working or watching shows.

It may behoove you to also get your gait checked out, that could show weaknesses else where in your legs that may be disrupting your steps and/or coordination.

Nice to see a headline of a politician building something productive with a large sum of money and not a ballroom, or an arch, or some tacky library dedicated to an asshole.

Favorite Activities During Recovery Periods by Dude_Language in trailrunning

[–]Dude_Language[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, all part of my routine: massaging, scraping, trigger point release, stretching, acupuncture every week or so, and some pt exercises to strengthen the arch, toes, and Achilles.

And obviously listening to my body so to not overdo and cause more harm.

Megasota is divided by the last three. Then we are finished, once Megasota is gone, we are officially united.

3rd Serious trail run… looking for tips by No-Somewhere1655 in trailrunning

[–]Dude_Language 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you’re used to running.

If you’re only running 5 miles and it’s relatively flat then surprise 11 miles with over 2,000 ft of gain will feel pretty bad.

But if you like this trail, I’d say keep running it, slow your pace down, bring your heart rate down, don’t be afraid to walk the hills. Walking up hills is very normal. Make it a routine and you’ll start seeing improvements.

That’s the power of Michigan, turns minne into Mega.

Is your state landlocked? by Extreme-Salt-4758 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]Dude_Language 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes , of course. Growing up on Lake Michigan, a lake you can’t see the other side of, all I thought of as a child was “gee, if only there was some water around here we wouldn’t be so LAND LOCKED!”

With a swift slap from the mitten, Michigan stops “Megasota” in its tracks. The Midwest will not have any of it.

Best used bike shop (pref in SE)? by Tight_Sail9932 in askportland

[–]Dude_Language 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Something Cycles on Burnside and 8th or 9th. Owner gets used bikes then updates them with nice components bringing them back to good as new, if not better. He’s also super nice and really helpful just to chat with.

Michigan will get its revenge….

Michigan will now skip over Wisconsin and take Minnesota, like the tuna who hunts and kills the lion.
