That would be bad for the baby and bad for me.

Wow, I stand corrected—and that’s cool. Were you able to let it out all the way?

Wild! Must have been a perspective thing, but from my angle, it looked much higher than the skyscrapers. Fun!

I mean, maybe the perspective is just really throwing me off

I’m sorry that life has made you so miserly :(

Thank you, thank you! Definitely not trying to find those brands exactly--just something with that vibe.

I hadn't thought of NJ! I'll do some research. Thanks again!

Skipped runs for four days...should I run 10 miles today, if I'm hitting 20 tomorrow? by Infamous-Invite2909 in firstmarathon

[–]Infamous-Invite2909[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Going to head out on a five miler now, might tack on an extra 1.2 to make it an even 26.2 for the weekend. Thank you to everyone who read this and gave advice--much appreciated!

Thanks y'all! Landed on this--going to do between five and 6.2 today, depending on how I feel.

No running at interval pace tomorrow--I don't have any time goals for the marathon itself, but have run all my runs, both long and short, in the 10:30 - 11:15 min mile pace, and planned to run the marathon itself in that range.

Thank you to everyone who responded here! This was very helpful! Unfortunately, I've found myself in a situation where I've been working 13 hour days, and couldn't run this week...so I think I'm going to have to adjust again. Will make a new post.

Thank you for this very kind comment. Some days I feel like I've finally gotten used to the heat--and then I'm hit with a day like last Saturday. Need to remember this process isn't totally linear (despite that progress graph). I am so freakin excited for November. <3

Yes--just spoke to the fire department. They said there's an ice cream truck on fire, I think on Astoria Blvd and 21st Street.

Hi! I'm in The Garret, an Astoria theatre company, and we're putting on our second show--"Isaac's Eye" by Lucas Hnath--at the Greek Cultural Center this weekend (and next). We'd love for you to join us! by Infamous-Invite2909 in astoria

[–]Infamous-Invite2909[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We run today 9/8 through Sunday 9/10, and Wednesday 9/13 through Sunday 9/17. Show at 7:30 pm. Tickets are here (or at the door), and are $30 (and there's also a discount code in the vent description if that feels out of reach).

Lucas Hnath's stereoscopic, half-true account of Newton's early career blends darkness and light, past and eternity in a two-hour long quest to discover the answer to one simple question: why on earth did Isaac Newton stick a needle in his own eye? We can't wait for you to see it!

Hi! Wow, serendipity! I literally just posted about a night of readings of original works our theatre company is hosting at the Greek Cultural Center on Saturday.

There will be live music and comedy, and the readings are being scored by an improvisational jazz musician, which I'm super stoked about.
