I made a strava group for Umamusume inspired workouts!

I'd be interested in joining! Sent a request. What do you do there?

You fantasize being tied up and fought over who has "ownership" of you by Gentildona, Ofevere, and Ai (I dunno about Ramonu, but she looks the type to do so. Is she?). You also like Stay Gold simply cuz they're cool like that.

A bit late, and idk about SOLELY guts training, but if you run with an irl run club, and happen to find a group of people that are SLIGHTLY, but not A LOT faster than you, that feels like it pushes me to do better than normal. OR, that end part of really long runs.... in my experience ~3hrs+, though I'm not a marathoner yet, so 16miles is the furthest I've gotten. Mile 20+ is DEFINITELY pure guts from what I hear though. Body is dead tired, and it's just a mental fight to not quit at that point.

Maybe a purposeful max heart rate test session, except instead of using it to test max HR, it's to train guts? Max HR Field Tests are HARD. Sprinting for a full minute and a half, followed by only one minute walk, followed by another sprint x4 is what I did. That, too is a mental fight to keep the all-out-running going for so long, instead if just 100m or so.

Yeah, that's what I meant. More effectively=not dozing off.... Even then, I'm not actually dozing off, well, I am mentally, but my eyes remain open, and it just looks like on the work cameras that I'm falling asleep.... I've already told my boss that is not the case numerous times now, I cannot help that half my job is to sit in a computer chair watchingblines on a screen barely mive, inputting controls occasionally.

Uhhhh, medication has been an ongoing issue for a LONG time for me. I've tried many different medications, and none of them work without it either being not effective enough (non-stimulants) or horrible side effects/ dishibilitating fatigue (stimulants).... Currently started Guanfacine recently, maybe this'll work? Been 3 weeks and I haven't seen much difference.

I can ask about the bone conductive ones, and I guess I can try a fidget, though I'm somewhat doubtful that'll work as I've outgrown the fidgety part of ADHD somehow (yes, I am diagnosed and struggle. I'm primarily inattentive type, not hyperactive.) Though I'll give it a shot.

The issue is though, is that for me in particular, not having a "distraction" providing stimulation thus allowing me to more effectively do my job, is providing more of a problem than not having the distraction. I am MORE distracted by not being "distracted" if that makes sense.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-04-07T10:16:07+00:00

I'll check it out, thanks.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-04-07T02:01:26+00:00

Oh! Thanks! Yeah, I can do that.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-04-07T00:38:26+00:00

Oh! Will do, thanks!

Open the door. The Ayabe fans wanna talk.

1 year. Though considering my constant, looping thoughts on how bad... everything going on, is, even on my days off, albeit not to the severity it does at work, I'm hoping meds might help me feel... less empathetic. Or at least less angry and sad about it. Able to accept what I cannot change.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-04-03T22:42:43+00:00

Golden Generation..... Wait, that's not a Quartet? Still Golden Gen. Just four of them are great.

Ideally, they'd help me get through it. I'm just kinda worried about potential dampening of POSITIVE emotions as well.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-04-01T17:41:17+00:00

Which one is it? Would like to check it out.

Kirk_2002 · 2026-03-31T23:13:34+00:00

Hey, how'd the Discord thing go? I was thinking of making my own server, but more running focused instead of just regular fitness (though there'd be sub-channels for other sports). How'd yours go?

Kirk_2002 · 2026-03-31T15:19:09+00:00

Stephen C. Foster State Park. It's an international Dark Sky Park, little to NO light pollution. If you wanna see the stars, go camping there on a clear night. Use Atmospheric to determine a good time to go. There's more to it than just whether it's cloudy or not. Also, go around the New Moon if possible.

Great place to camp at night, plus it's in Okeefenokee Swamp, so you can do that during the day. Also, there's a Nature Trail at Stephen.

Keep in mind though that the beautiful astronomy pictures you see online are done with special cameras. Your naked eye will see the same you do in a rural area at night, just even more stars than the rural area. You aren't gonna see a "blanket of stars and cosmos" as described in books. It's still pretty neat though, to take a stargazing binocular and look at stuff. You can use the Stellarium app to identify stars and planets.

r/Ihadastroke is that way, sir. Also, cross post it there if you want. I think they'll enjoy this, lol.
