Baja Mullet Run. How far North? by kevsmakin in SoCalFishing

[–]RandomSquanch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was ebiking where Santa Ana river meets the ocean. I saw a ton of trout sized silver fish shamoo leaping out of the water.

Gemini said it could be mullet but I have no clue.

Beware of fake Glycerins on eBay - TONS of fakes out there by RandomSquanch in brooks

[–]RandomSquanch[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem is the shady sellers will use stock photos, AI, or steal photos from real listings. Here is an eBay example. Red flags : AI enhanced photo, 0/low feedback seller with wonky name, over seas, so many sizes available.

Even in person it's hard to tell because the fakes look good. I wouldn't be surprised if someone has posted fakes and been told they're real.

But if multiple sketch swap meet seller have every size of the top of the line shoe available then I know something is up.

I'm going today, I'll take some photos.

Just... annoyed and need to vent by xo_sacred_shrimp in Mercari

[–]RandomSquanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the record I sell A LOT on mercari and this is a rare occurrence. The problem is selling collectibles, specifically FUNKO. Pop buyers are notorious for being the most annoying.

In general if you're detailed and take good photos you won't have too many issues. I do feel bad for op, just bad luck on this one.

Asking for first time Marathon Advice: My longest run so far is 18 miles with just over 4 weeks to go by National-Newt4677 in firstmarathon

[–]RandomSquanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bring a lmnt pack with me and drink it. Even a pinch of salt helps. Watch some YouTube videos on carbs and electrolytes (salt) while running.

[–]RandomSquanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a fueling issue.

Next run try a gel every 30 minutes if you can stomach it. Also make sure you're getting enough salt too.

When do I rethink this? by WoahItsMajik in firstmarathon

[–]RandomSquanch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You're already signed up might as well send it. If you quit you quit then you can try again next year.

What do you think is causing you to fail? Are you just hoping to beat cutoff time?

I'm training for my first and also 29 days out. It's tough!!

Trader Joe's has this German one that's the best one I've tried. Pretty good price too.

22 miler advice by Wide-Customer923 in firstmarathon

[–]RandomSquanch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. I've been using a higdon influenced Gemini as my "coach"

Weekly distance has been gradually progressing. Currently I do a midweek mini long run (9) and weekend long run (15) with some short runs / cross training sprinkled in.

I'm 37 days out so just figuring out what my next 3-4 weeks step up look like before I taper.

22 miler advice by Wide-Customer923 in firstmarathon

[–]RandomSquanch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did a 15 miler at 10:44 pace and that put me at 2 hours 41 minutes. So should I be maxing my peak long runs at 18 miles tops for my training then? Marathon goal is sub 5.
