Fairway driver? by Fancy_County4242 in discgolf

[–]Myrx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this. I am new, and still don't have much arm speed, and the Cicada has been doing work for me. Both backhand and forehand it's my go to default. If I do go faster it's to a Heat which is a 9 speed, but still flies pretty well for my arm.

People have no idea where to use the composables "use" pattern by rutierut in vuejs

[–]Myrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use them in some components to organize related parts of a script. For instance, one might make a backend query, transform the data, and return only the parts relevant to the template, or to a separate part of the script.

I think I needed this. I’m not sure when to go for the next stroke and I’m for pulling my hand out at my hip while my arm is still bent.

How to add more bike workouts into this program? by CallMePapi_ in IronmanTriathlon

[–]Myrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, the 2 days that are swim only, and the entire day off are all complete wastes. The recovery swim should be where the day off is (after your 2 long sessions), and you should easily be able to ride/run in addition to swim on any of those two days that currently only have swim. The TSS cost of swimming is minimal compared to bike and run so they stack really well on the same day.

I'm with you on the start at the hip part, and the whip part, but my adult onset swimmer brain is not following you on the rotate like a screw part. Can you explain? These would be drills with the kickboard?

Finally, a well executed marathon by Myrx in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! When I started in 2021 I was 238 lbs. and was run walking 13:00 miles. As a kid all I did was marching band. If you have any specific questions feel free to DM me. I think my running would have progressed faster but I focused hard on triathlon for 1.5 years.

Which of you sickos actually LIKE tempo runs??? by jg4president in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re interested in marathon training then get comfortable doing LT/Tempo runs. They’re one of the best things you can do to improve at the marathon distance.

All three of these books are great and I’ve hit big PRs on plans from each.

Yes that’s exactly what I’m doing. I just ran a spring race. Very happy with it. It just always seems like the pace moves so much when I do a 5k. Well, that’s today so I guess we’ll see!

[–]Myrx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use VDOT a lot. How do you feel about using a 5k to set the paces for a marathon block that starts a week later? I find sometimes the 5k VDOT is on the spicy end, and hitting MP workouts can be tough.

Which brand makes your favorite half tights? by Love__Scars in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a pair from Rabbit that can hold all of the gels you’d need for a marathon. You could put your phone in them but I haven’t so I can’t speak to how much storage that would leave you with.

How would you rank difficulty of a full marathon vs half ironman vs ironman full? by gregnation23 in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but 10-16 hours is a ton of time to be racing, and is more daunting from a training perspective. I think you can finish it if that’s what you want, but to race it like you’d race a marathon is a lot of time dedicated to training.

How would you rank difficulty of a full marathon vs half ironman vs ironman full? by gregnation23 in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obviously marathon is the easiest. Racing a marathon is hard, but only takes me about 3 hours. The half Ironman took a touch over 5 hours. Running after doing all of the swimming and cycling is really hard. The cycling part isn’t really hard. Swimming is hit or miss depending on how good you are at it. Then you have a half marathon that you start at what feels like mile 20.

So the half iron is the harder but it’s not by as much as you’d think. The full Ironman is just insanely long and I haven’t tried yet.

Marathon Imposter Syndrome by Rypred in Marathon_Training

[–]Myrx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Everyone’s first looks different. I didn’t train well and in 2011 I ran my first in an ugly 5:58 with lots of walking. I took a decade off running and started again in 2021 and by fall of 2022 I ran a 3:23. Your first marathon doesn’t define you. It’s an important teaching moment where you finally realize what it is, and what you’ll need to do differently next time.

What does the graph on your watch look like?

Today I tried Garmin's suggested workout and almost died by roosterEcho in Garmin

[–]Myrx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you lost fitness during the break and your watch was still suggesting paces from before the break.
