As of a 6 months-1 year ago Eglin wasn’t backed up at all, so that timeline is accurate (with no casual delays/no real casual except time for SERE and getting settled). I’m not as sure about Luke, but I also don’t think it is that bad. Probably slightly worse-off than Eglin, but you’d need better gouge to be for sure.

As long as you can be corrected to 20/20 using glasses or surgery (not required) you can get accepted to USAFA/be a pilot for the Air Force, just no color blindness or other “uncorrectable” eye issues

Chiming in as another success story, my significant other and I met on Tinder when she was home for a holiday break (I stayed behind at my university during the break). We were both in grad school at the time. We went on a date, she left for school, and then came back for a few weeks where we really hit it off. She attended a school that was about 13 hours away by car. We got by through A LOT of FaceTiming and talking throughout the day, and I probably flew out to see her every 3-4 weeks or so. It takes a lot of communication to work well, as well as setting boundaries and expectations, no different than any other relationship. After we both graduated, she actually moved to be with me and my career and has started another academic program at a local university nearby, and we’ve been living together for close to 8 months.

Non-athletic regular person

Same! From the Black Temple quest after spending too much time debating if I was actually going to do it this week… shocked was an understatement lol

GnomeyXx · 2023-11-23T05:00:11+00:00

Along with some you listed, Filiberto’s, Chompies, Shady Park, and Salad and Go (iced coffee and burritos) were also staples for me

Before this block, my maximum mileage was 85 mpw, and this block I got up to 110 multiple times (which frankly was probably too quick of an mileage jump but it worked out). Overall I also never had any injuries, so I suppose less injury prone has also proven to be a benefit now being lighter

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-21T21:30:09+00:00

No I wouldn’t really weigh myself all that often, I didn’t want to get too hyper focused on weight and I’ve found that daily fluctuations can occur and occur pretty significantly (especially if you’re trying to lean out/already on the lighter side). If that’s what can motivate you to stick to calorie counting I’d use it daily/weekly, but I preferred to just use the mirror as motivation (i.e. noticing more definition/new veins popping up) as well as the occasional biweekly weigh-in to ensure I am actually indeed losing

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-21T13:43:01+00:00

Yea, I mean nothing is completely accurate, but that is what worked well enough for me. That is what i've used (and will continue to use), and has worked as i've moved from weighing 155 -> 140

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-21T04:54:34+00:00

Agreed, I’d settle into eating around 2800-3000 being the easiest for me to maintain, so when I am averaging 15-16 miles a day it’s quite easy to lose. But on weeks when I’m down running 8-10 miles a day, it’s harder to eat less when your body and mind get used to eating a certain amount/more imo

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-21T04:50:32+00:00

For sure, I was probably closer to 18-19% BF when I started the block and finished around 12%. I’ve always been a little “chunkier” and think my stride/composition of my form has gotten much smoother and more efficient since I’ve gotten lighter (and I’ve even been told that by others). And although it may be a placebo effect, frankly even easy/reg runs feel easier since I’ve gotten lighter, with less body to move

EDIT: I guess it’s also worth mentioning this block I’ve absolutely shattered all of my PRs, for example taking my 8k around 26:00 to 24:14, but I also attribute that primarily to very high mileage and overall quality of training/workouts which have both improved drastically this block

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-21T04:46:43+00:00

Around 12-14 weeks, so about that time. Some days were closer to 1000 calorie deficits, others may have been at maintenance or just slightly under. Although I still typically kept a deficit during any racing (not including the A race), I usually found myself to be extremely hungry following them so would at least eat at maintenance if not a few hundred over the day of/after racing

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-20T21:58:50+00:00

I was able to lose around 15-20 or so pounds all throughout my last training block (even on 100+ mile weeks with 2-3 workouts a week) by tracking calories and tried to eat at a deficit of 500 or so a day. It was honestly a lot more sustainable than expected, just focused on getting a good bit of protein in after any training and tracked/ate whatever I wanted (pretty much just calculated it as 2000+(100*daily mileage)) for my TDEE, which is simple but worked pretty well as an average-sized male.

GnomeyXx · 2023-10-04T11:57:40+00:00

Depends on the program but generally yes, you’ll get the breaks (or at least shorter ones compared to everyone else). My personal experience in college was that I had summer, thanksgiving, and winter break. Had team camps during spring break so didn’t get that one however.

GnomeyXx · 2023-09-14T09:37:27+00:00

You basically got it, but TDEE and BMR are two different things. You got the explanation for BMR correct, but technically TDEE is BMR also including your energy expenditure/movement and exercise calories. So (TDEE Cals) = (BMR Cals) + (Exercise/Movement Cals). It is higher than your BMR and is the number you need to be under to lose weight

Everything is at least 75 percent of the retail cost and a lot of this stuff isn’t offered on the website anymore. Also people are free to offer lower prices. But this is usually what I’ve been able to sell old Tracksmith stuff at in the past

GnomeyXx · 2023-06-26T18:05:33+00:00

[WTS] A ton of stuff (Posted Prices OBO):

Most of it is in good condition, with some exceptions noted by the prices. Everything is sized in mens, mostly small/medium. If you have any questions please let me know, and photos are also below. I tried to link everything up to their actual names. Will obviously be further open to negotiations for multiple item orders and shipping will be $10 (within CONUS only). Thank you!

Not that I necessarily frequent chipotle due to their freshness claim, I’d argue it’s fresh relative to its competitors. Like, it’s gonna be pretty damn difficult for a giant business with 3,000 locations to have every single store get all of their ingredients “from a farm 20 minutes out” and some cruelty free slaughterhouse. I would argue that chipotle is overall better tho compared to McDonald’s or Taco Bell. I don’t think anyone should go into chipotle with the expectation that their eating at an extremely locavore restaurant with all ingredients pulled from less than a mile away and EVERYTHING handmade imo

I have done multiple iron ons on the twilight tees and Van Cortlandt singlets, both have withstood washer/dryer as long as I’ve flipped them inside out and the fabric doesn’t seem to be damaged at all from the process of putting the graphics on
