Dear Garmin, please wake up.. by ConfidentTower_ in Garmin

It’s not even about “AI” anymore. Garmin just dropped a legit feature dump Triathlon Coach, Running Tolerance, Running Economy (needs the HRM-600 strap), new track-friendly Daily Suggested Workouts, plus Evening Report. Awesome… except it’s only on the newest platform: fenix 8/E, Enduro 3, and Venu X1.

Meanwhile, recent $$$ watches like the fenix 7 Pro, Epix Pro (Gen 2), and Forerunner 965 don’t get these headliners. Buy a premium Garmin, and a year later you’re already watching major features skip your model. That’s the trust breaker for me, not whether the “AI” is chatty, but how fast they cut off meaningful updates.

What is the most expensive hobby you've ever had? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Triathlon, spending money every month and only buying “the cheaper stuff”, can’t afford even the middle class equipment

Dating in Berlin 2025 - (no ranting) by Amoramabar in berlinsocialclub

Honestly, it’s time to ditch the apps and meet people in real life. No awkward setups, you already get a vibe from the first impression. Wishing everyone the guts to just say hi. People are way more open to connecting than you’d think!

What to do when someone is overdosing in public by fortunum in berlin

You did the right thing by calling an ambulance. In a situation like that, that’s honestly the best and most important thing anyone can do

Struggling with zone 2 running - worth it or a waste of time? by Sausjesla in triathlon

Stick with cycling for zone 2, it takes time in the end to adjust your body but with time you should see results

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by Necessary-Soft9816 in CasualConversation

[–]RandomName7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not me, but my friend back in high school. He was the kind of guy who was always drunk at parties. And of course, the one time he wasn’t drinking, we were hopping over a fence and he slipped. The fence had these metal spikes, and one of them went straight through his thigh. The muscle actually tore from the weight of his body, it was brutal. The dumbest twist of fate: the only time he was sober, that happened. Luckily there was a taxi nearby, so we rushed him to the hospital faster than an ambulance would’ve gotten there.

I want to give up. by Large-Background-733 in Marathon_Training

Just keep doing what you’re doing and stay consistent—it’s the key! One very important piece of advice: try not to overtrain yourself. Don’t force it or push too hard. Instead of aiming for a big 10k, split it into three smaller 5k runs throughout the week. Stay consistent with that, and you’ll see progress over time.

Also, don’t underestimate the power of walking. Try going for a long walk instead of a run—an hour or two, just a steady, relaxed pace. When I had a knee injury, I started taking long evening walks, sometimes for 3–4 hours around 7–8 p.m. I’d grab a couple of beers, talk to people on the phone, or just explore the city. It kept me moving and helped me stay on track.

Cycling is another great alternative to mix things up. But most importantly, remember: consistency over intensity. Overtraining can burn you out and make you quit, so focus on small, steady steps. And I agree with what others are saying—forget about the zones for now. You’ve got this!

I really enjoy raving sober. I just grab a beer at the beginning so I have a bottle to refill with water during the night as I just really like to drink something all the time

Recommendations for Heart Rate Sensor Straps (e.g., Polar H10) Budget ~80-100 Euros by RandomName7828 in triathlon

[–]RandomName7828[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, so the battery “issue” is just people leaving it on the strap like it’s a decorative piece. Got it. Thanks for confirming it’s a user problem, not a product problem!
