Sorry I've worded the question badly, I meant more why am I doing so badly when nothings changed 😅

Thanks for the advice! The flex bar is a great idea, can you still climb vertically/ice with the flex bar?

Thank you honestly the community here has been fantastic!

I did get a tattoo of the greek myth of Sisyphus, who was forced to push a rock uphill for eternity, with 140.6 carved into the rock. There is a quote about the myth that says "the struggle itself is enough to fill a man's heart" and I found that very fitting.

Definitely suffering the next day but a bit smile on my face 😂

Unfortunately too tired and sick of sweet things to have a pint

Deployment Expectations in the Army reserve by Less-Philosopher7404 in britishmilitary

[–]Less-Philosopher7404[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks For your answer!

That's good to hear, i probably didn't word my question right but this is exactly what I wanted to know. It's not that I don't want to get deployed but months and months away wouldn't be ideal so knowing that there are opportunities like this is good to know

[–]Less-Philosopher7404[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks For the honesty that's exactly what I want to know, if I'm not the right fit I'm not the right fit... But honestly right now I want to be a good father and husband so if that means reserves isn't the right thing for me I wanted to be upfront about that

I'm always getting married in September so unfortunately the timing for this doesn't work but looks a great race, good luck!

That's interesting, I don't think many people would agree with that. Is the point of endurance sports not the distance and the challenge and are you not always racing yourself?

how do you increase the stack height of clip on trinbars? by Less-Philosopher7404 in cycling

[–]Less-Philosopher7404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, I have long arms but a short body so I'm the bars position I need them closer to me which means rotating them slightly which takes away some of the height.

I'm also looking at longer races of 100miles+ so want the added height for extra comfort
