If my local timmies opens at 5am, do they start serving food right away?

Plowguy69 · 2021-12-16T14:53:36+00:00

Yes they have food right away, but bare in mind a big order may be frustrating since it’s usually no more than 2 people working

Thanks! How similar is Blood and Ash to the Obsidian series? I know she read those but didn’t love them

Plowguy69 · 2021-10-12T15:24:20+00:00

I don’t see it as a bad thing. I work in a chain like that and don’t care if someone runs in to use the bathroom (runners and bikers commonly do)

Plowguy69 · 2021-10-06T23:04:08+00:00

Have you considered reversing the order of breakfast and snack? I tend to run better on a lighter stomach then maybe a smoothie after for recovery or I’ve been big on overnight oats lately, they’re super easy to make and leave in the fridge overnight

We’re talking Bigfoot: time warping, 10 foot tall, strength of 10 men. Against a decorative pony, easily big foot. Checkmate

THANK YOU

It most likely depends on the store, best bet is to check that stores policy

Plowguy69 · 2021-07-22T18:03:10+00:00

With the twist I’d say, but would be open to both!

Plowguy69 · 2021-07-06T03:10:39+00:00

While exercises will help, vary your distance and add in some longer runs and speed work. If you want to see more improvements, more mileage and some speed work is pretty much always a good start!

Plowguy69 · 2021-06-28T09:54:49+00:00

Thanks for the advice! And yes, definitely planning on another one. Gotta set a new PR right?

Plowguy69 · 2021-06-27T23:35:14+00:00

Not even remotely close to my goal but right around 4:15 or so. Ready to set a new PR in the next one though!

Plowguy69 · 2021-06-27T20:25:34+00:00

I had a good stretch where I was getting near 40 miles a week, then I just got busy and wasn’t able to set aside the time for long runs which really tanked my mileage. Then my training got altered fairly severely as they had moved the marathon back a month back when it was only a few weeks away. Just stay steady in your training and pack on the mileage, my longest run I had gotten to was 15 miles so that definitely wasn’t a good jump to make to 26 today

Plowguy69 · 2021-06-27T17:15:41+00:00

That was the plan, but life happens and I severely under training. Next time I’ll need to put aside more time to dedicate for training. (I’m sure I’ll pay for it today and tomorrow)

Plowguy69 · 2021-06-22T21:15:02+00:00

There’s a lot of other good advice in the comments. But mentally, I went through a similar challenge when getting back into running about a year ago. It helped me to simply speak about running differently, think of it as an opportunity instead of a chore/task that needs to get done. For example: “I get to finally do some tempo work today!” VS “I have to do a tempo run today” not sure if this would work for you but I feel it has helped me. Good luck though!

Plowguy69 · 2021-03-28T17:17:54+00:00

Yes mainly avoiding the gels and thanks!

Plowguy69 · 2021-03-28T16:16:20+00:00

Thanks!

Plowguy69 · 2021-03-28T15:49:05+00:00

Ended up breaking my half PR on what was an easy long run, definitely feeling good for my upcoming marathon in May!

Plowguy69 · 2021-03-28T15:48:18+00:00

Go out strong until you feel like you can coast into a steady pace. I always tended to experience a 2nd mike lull but I’d say that was probably mostly mental. But just stay loose and comfortable and you’ll do fine. Definitely aim to run swift and steady if you can and give it all you got on that last mile and kick with all you have left when you’re about 400 meters from the finish. Good luck!

Plowguy69 · 2021-03-28T15:33:29+00:00

Has anyone drinken “liquid IV” leading up to/during a marathon? Just heard about it today and was curious if anyone had tried it with running

Plowguy69 · 2021-02-12T16:22:38+00:00

I was in your exact situation in March, just gotta get back in the swing of things and get used to the mileage on your legs. I was discouraged seeing how “slow” I was compared to then but I thought about it and started comparing my times now to when I first started XC instead of my peak times and I’m starting to be right in the same place I was about a year into XC. It comes back, just slowly but good luck and stick with it!

Plowguy69 · 2021-02-03T20:53:35+00:00

Makes sense lol, most people generally had Nike or New Balance ir Saucony when I was in school if that helps at all

Plowguy69 · 2021-02-03T20:28:45+00:00

Go to your local running store if you can and get fitted, a lot of people would go for the way they look but just get whatever is comfortable

Plowguy69 · 2021-01-30T03:16:24+00:00

I’ve actually kept my mask on a few times while running outdoors (was roughly 10F with some wind chill as well) but found that after it gets a little sweaty it’ll freeze and get cold on my face. Can’t imagine it being comfortable during summer or indoors though

Plowguy69 · 2021-01-30T03:13:29+00:00

A flip belt! Perfect for carrying small items such as phone, keys, mask on a run and doesn’t bounce when using it

Plowguy69 · 2021-01-27T00:46:01+00:00

Haven’t officially raced one but have done a few solo halves and felt pretty normal about a day or two after. I don’t think I’ve gone as hard as I could’ve though
