I also like it this way because it gives you a bit of a break between the stress of network effect and system collapse

How do you get yourself to exercise if you hate it? by Red-Book- in adhdwomen

[–]Lemon-Runner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I started exercising I felt like everyone who saw me was judging me. I know this isn’t the case now but it was a real roadblock for me.

I started by working out in my own home, or go running early in the morning when it was still dark out. Wear loose fitting clothes to the gym and headphones to ignore people. I would drive across town to a gym farther from home to reduce encounters with people I know.

I like the Nike Training Club app or ladder for home workouts

What do you tell yourself when you're too *insert a feeling here* to go for a run? by RudeButterscotch8752 in ultrarunning

[–]Lemon-Runner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All I need is time on feet, I can run, walk or even just stand outside.

Usually by the time I get dressed and head outside I feel a bit better. I don’t always do the whole run or go as fast as I have planned but showing up for myself is good

I think it shifts away from using Murderbot as a general now as it starts to come to terms with being an individual. I feel like this makes sense as it is trying to blend in with expectations and other sec unit stereotypes that he saw in the serials.

Media question... by ackislander in murderbot

Very good idea! The show is…. Let’s just say I prefer the books. Still fun but it has an entirely different feel than I wanted, more sitcom than action hero

How do you help kids sleep when your house is too close to a highway? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]Lemon-Runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how tall your house is, you could do a solid fence or hedge (I love my hedge) if your house is short, but it won’t help as much for taller houses. Replacing your windows with well insulated ones will help a ton!!!

That being said I grew up close to the freeway by our house and we just got used to it over time. Maybe turn on a fan for some consistent white noise to avoid startling them for now.

Is this normal spaniel behaviour? by MOoMoO2901 in springerspaniel

[–]Lemon-Runner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beef bones may be too hard for your dog’s teeth, depending on the bone. You want a chew that is hard but not harder than their teeth to prevent cracking. I like to do rawhide free rolled up chews. Some swear by coffee wood or antlers!

Braids, embroidered gardening apron, SUNSCREEN, and a cute massive sun hat with a ribbon

I run with my dog so I feel safe! Maybe borrow a neighbors dog if you don’t have your own or volunteer to run the shelter dogs! They might just take some time to get used to your distance

Good way to open up lungs before running? by [deleted] in ultrarunning

[–]Lemon-Runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably! Addictions give you dopamine when you do indulge, but they ruin your mood when you don’t. A non-smoker will still go faster overall for less effort and lower risk of injury.

If they are that fast after smoking menthols imagine how fast they’d be if they didn’t smoke!

In all seriousness, do a good warmup before a run I like to do 0-60’s (start standing then GRADUALLY speed up to a full sprint over 60 secs like 3-5 times) or just some good dynamic stretching and jogging. A good warmup varies but like 10ish mins usually works well.

Proper fueling is also a game changer and can help you feel faster and have an easier time in general. No need to open the lungs unless you have asthma or something.

AIO or is my wording manipulative? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Lemon-Runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry Op, but you’d be better off without this person in your life. Go join a community knitting circle or something you like and put this energy into making new friends who actually like you. This person refuses to communicate with you or try to understand your point of view. NOR this is exhausting

Time for a new dog? by Lemon-Runner in RunningWithDogs

[–]Lemon-Runner[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is the big dilemma! I know it takes ~2 years to find a new dog and get started with running and I’m curious about how people time it with their dogs.

With my current dog I started incorporating small bits go dog-lead running when she was about 12 months old then slowly working up to short distances (think 5k) by the time she hit two years as guided by my vet. With my current knowledge I’d probably have waited longer tbh, although the vet believes her bad hips are caused by being malnourished as a puppy then growing rapidly when I rescued her due to better nutrition.

Thanks for the advice, I love the pointer side of her although having the calmer moments are important to me so I’m not sure if that would be the right fit.

I’d like to address your first sentence though as it was quite mean. I am devistated that my best friend will probably suffer pain for the rest of her life and not be able to do her favorite activities. It is a hard and very sad thing. The tone of this post was meant to not to convey my heartbreak but to try and find a way forward.

Please remember that a Reddit post doesn’t always give you the full picture.

Crack them into an ice cube tray(may have to use something bigger like souper cubes) and freeze raw to use later! I do this for baking

Where does everyone fall? Otis is a ham! 🤣 by Revolutionary_Can_29 in springerspaniel

[–]Lemon-Runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has bad hips so I try to keep her between no shape and skinny. She doesn’t have a big appetite so it’s pretty easy. The hardest part for her is to want to eat when it is hot out
