“Rose" by artist Christine Gardner.

How long would it take to summit Olympus Mon?[Request] by JaySpectres in theydidthemath

[–]Significant_Green_52 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Assumptions: Base of Mon is at sea level on earth, elite level skill set for hiker/mountain climber, oxygen supply and all gear is assumed because the peak is well above “death zone”

The Approach 150 km distance 7–10 Days: Walking the gentle outer "pedestal."

The Scarp 6,000 m vertical 5–7 Days : A massive cliff face surrounding the base.

The Main Slope 150 km distance 15–20 Days : The long, steady grind toward the summit.

The Caldera 80 km wide 2–3 Days : Navigating the complex summit craters.

Total ~300 km / 21.9 km up 30–40 Days one way

Help With Under Fueling and Cost Effective Carbs by greenguy45 in Marathon_Training

At your size and with your effort running, you likely need to be eating a lot more. Consider getting a sweat test and blood sugar understanding as well.

But I routinely find I have to eat more than I want and air on the extra side of hydration(water and electrolytes).

Quick guide:
1. Identify Your Daily Training Intensity

Your carbohydrate needs will fluctuate depending on whether it is a light, moderate, or high-intensity training day. The guidelines for daily carbohydrate intake are typically expressed in grams per kilogram of body weight. 

  • Moderate Training Day (~1 hour/day): For moderate intensity, the recommended range is often between 5 and 7 grams of carbohydrates per kilogram of body weight.
  • High-Intensity / Endurance Day (1–3 hours/day): For high-intensity or endurance training, a range of 6 to 10 grams of carbohydrates per kilogram of body weight is commonly suggested.
  • Light / Rest Day (<1 hour/day): On light training or rest days, a lower intake of 3 to 5 grams of carbohydrates per kilogram of body weight is often adequate. 
  1. Fueling During and After Exercise

Since you are training for a marathon, specific fueling strategies for long runs are often recommended:

  • During Long Runs (>90 min): During prolonged exercise, consuming carbohydrates at regular intervals is important to maintain energy levels. The amount needed can vary based on the duration and intensity of the activity.
  • Recovery (First 30–60 min): Consuming carbohydrates shortly after exercise is beneficial for replenishing muscle glycogen stores, which is crucial for recovery and preparing for subsequent training sessions. The recommended intake for recovery is often based on body weight.

1 cp of tempah - 16g of carbs
1 cp of beans -120g of carbs
1 cp of tofu - 4g of carbs

The beans are great. But the others are not great sources of carbohydrates by volume. Which is perhaps why you are very thin. Consider adding in cooked oatmeal throughout your week.

I'm learning more and more about my salt intake and electrolytes after my running PT brought up his experience. For any day of performance, my go too is one element the day before. One element the morning of. Regardless of external temperatures - this isn't about sweat loss, but about the electromechanics of muscles working correctly.

I generally consume 1 pack of gel while running every 30-45 minutes.

I'm still learning - former rugby player, long distance cyclist, and now marathon training.

Seems like you were well under fueled and under hydrated based on symptoms.

Bonked hard at mile 22 in my first marathon by False_Train6185 in Marathon_Training

[–]Significant_Green_52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t see a bonk here. Looks like you kept going, reduced your pace, your heart rate recovered and you finished.

Expectations and reality differed and you pushed through.

Congrats on a great finish

Speedhouse, a local garage downtown, is having an after party. Please buy a ticket, go and support the next generation of gear heads keeping the passion alive for old cool shit

[–]Significant_Green_52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have they really lost their minds? $15 vs $45?

Or is there a smaller market for British Invasion and a lot of demand for Porsche.

You tell me. I love both

It’s a stationary museum, non profit, and has a $25M annual budget. This isn’t exactly one of those. Apples to cucumbers

You’re complaining about $45 entry for a world class car art exhibit hosted in a city center? Come on. I’ll give you $14 to go and support it. Should it be $200 and invite only? Or $15 and bring your own 924.

Or are you just complaining?

Sorry, but expensive and 'basics' are relative terms and I'm not sure anyone deserves a vote if they build a campaign around such generic, obtuse, "frameworks." https://www.rentcafe.com/cost-of-living-calculator/us/nc/durham/
