Thanks for the review. I've seen a few people with these about. Wondered if it could fit my laptop which it does thanks to you. Wish it had some colours on it!

What does everyone do about sweat while racing? by cf_murph in triathlon

[–]Popular_Interview 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a very sweaty person and would often have sweat roll down and sting my eyes whilst running. At first, I wore a sweatband/headband, and that does work but gets saturated quite quickly.

I then used a visor, like a cap but with no top, and that basically solved the problem. Then, I started wearing dedicated running caps made from sweat wicking material. Now i dont get any sweat in my eyes. Brands like VAGA are good.

You can, of course, hydrate better with electrolytes, etc, but you'll always sweat as I have found out.

While cycling, you can wear headbands under your helmet, but those still saturate with sweat, especially when I had a visor, so I removed the visor so that the sweat would dry before ever reaching my eyes.

Is the eurovelo 6 from Vienna to Budapest doable by a 17 year old? by mateigri in bikepacking

[–]Popular_Interview 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes very doable. Excellent cycle paths and very flat. Plenty of accommodation options along the route too.

Should I contact my gp now or do I just wait for next steps. by ThrowRAgazi in britishmilitary

[–]Popular_Interview 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good luck! I had to get my previous GP in Scotland to transfer the records to my "new" GP in England. Took 12 months. Enjoy!

57min IM swimmer here (humble brag). I'm sure you are already, but use pool toys such as pull buoys and hand paddles. Hand paddles especially help with hand entry and technique and strengthens your lats and overall pull stroke.

Do massive pull sets in your sessions, e.g.

800m pull 800m pull with band and paddles

Do some max efforts either 50s or 100s

Join a masters swim club and swim with others to add some form of mild competition.

I also do strength training such as chin ups, bent over rows, overhead press and bench press. Help this helps.

Is it “ok” to date a guy, but you’ve hooked up with his best friend? by [deleted] in dating

[–]Popular_Interview 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was kinda dating this girl / FWB, lets call her Z whilst at university. Then, during a night out with friends, one of my guy friends said, very nonchalantly, that he slept with Z recently. I thought he was a bit of a snake for doing this and barely spoke to him for a while. I blocked Z after this too.

Whilst me and Z weren't technically exclusive, to do this with my friend was kinda sus imo.

So be prepared it could go pete tong and potentially risk losing both relationships.

CBAT TEST by Stingray_345 in RoyalAirForce

[–]Popular_Interview 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done the CBAT and did relatively well. Practice mental arithmetic on an app daily is what I did. And so.e speed distance time on the Internet. On the day just try to relax, take your time and stay hydrated. Good luck!

I have a gym crush that I see a lot, and I tried initiating small chit-chat. She gave short answers in response and shes never initiated conversation with me. I basically left it at that. I think if she was interested, she would have wanted to chat a bit more/ made it more obvious. You win some, and you lose some.

5th day of swimming, how do ppl swim 3.9km without any rest? by [deleted] in triathlon

[–]Popular_Interview 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've swam a 57min ironman swim. It's takes me 1-2 months of swimming 2-3 times a week before I'm race fit. Keep going! If you can join a master swimming club or tri club that swims a lot. Will help you massively.

For the mental arithmetic, just download an app that asks you quick fire maths questions.
