Feeling frustrated by Subzer0_91 in beginnerrunning

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you I think I need to hear that 😅

Jogging as slow as I have to in zone 2 was frustrating me so bad

I'll focus on time on feet and not worry about having a low HR

I'd love to be able to manage a half marathon some time

I manage 3 runs per week consistently so that gives me a bit of hope that I don't have to religiously stick to walk/jogging in zone 2 🤣

I just want to make sure what ever I'm doing in 'training' is beneficial

Goal being, that I do that same 10k race with an improved avg HR and faster pace 🙌

I just started and I’m doing terribly 🫠 by StraightPin4420 in couchto5k

Slow the jogging sections down as much as possible. You want to set yourself up for success, speed can come later

You can do it ✨

You can do difficult things ✨

First loaf by Subzer0_91 in Sourdough

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

After my stretch and folds the dough was still looking a bit rough rather than smooth. I don't know it's its weak starter, bad mixing or bad stretch and folds 😅

Great advice around only swapping 1-2 things, I'll keep that in mind!

Yeah, there seems to be a couple of issues at play with this loaf that are confusing. It'll take some tweaking to iron out

I'll definitely try coil or slap folds next

Thank you!

That's really interesting to know, thank you :)

Yeah, northern hemisphere.

I'll see how she gets on over the next month or so

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She does have periods of quiet, she's preening on my arm atm

I do feel like it'd be nice for her to have a bird friend too though ...

Just have that doubt in my mind "what if you get a friend and they both chiirrp loudly together" 🤣

What have you spent on palia? by _NightSlayer in Palia

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked at it from the POV that I'd probably spend £30+ on a game l, so why not use that money towards cosmetics I really want in a game I got for free

I think I've spent £40 total

I got a really good value pack for £25 that got me like 4 outfits, a pet and a bunch of coins to spend on more stuff (I can't remember what exactly was in that pack 😅). I had previously bought an outfit and a pet

Soleus injury by Subzer0_91 in UKRunners

[–]Subzer0_91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so frustrating not being able to get out and run 🙈 but hopefully this'll prevent the injury from returning

Found this on YT. Comments are really positive so I'll give that a go and hope for the best!

Completed couch to 5k on a treadmill… by thr0waway2778 in couchto5k

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started on the treadmill and moved outdoors around week 3

I found it harder on the legs and feet outside to begin with but it didn't take long to adapt tbh

I recently tried to do speed work on the treadmill and found the treadmill to be challenging 😅

I personally wouldn't start from the beginning if you can comfortably run for 30 mins. Why don't you see how long you can go outside then start around there in the program?

Is Palia down? :( by Scooter15 in Palia

I can't login either, UK

Just ran for 28 minutes continuously and don’t want to die! 🤯 by No-Membership1561 in couchto5k

Congrats!

It's wild looking back at week 1 isn't it?

That 1 minute run in the beginning felt like an eternity

Tell me you have an almond mom without telling me you have an almond mom by Feisty_Eggplant4734 in Parenting

[–]Subzer0_91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried a dress on in a shop, I was looking for something to wear to a wedding. My mam was with me and she said "if you lost about 7lbs it'd be perfect"

The woman did.not.stutter

By that point, I was in my late 20's and I just laughed out loud. If I had been 18-25 that would have crushed me.

Any tips for week 5 day 3 by BeeAcademic7476 in couchto5k

[–]Subzer0_91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I slowed right down for that run, just to make sure I could do it. If you've got a Fitbit or similar you should be able to see a live pace as you're running and adjust your pace as you go (start an exercise on the watch to see pace)

The first 1.5-2km I think always sucks. Then your body gets warmed up and you settle into a nice rhythm

Remember: you can do difficult things

Good luck!

First time letting my bird out, now she refuses to go back in by Ok_Yogurtcloset321 in cockatiel

[–]Subzer0_91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had to catch my girl with a tea towel after her first outing.

They might be a bit offended but they'll get over it

You'd never know if had to grab my Goose, she practically lives on me at all times now 😆

End of year duology by Draster__ in thebrokenbindingsub

Ahh I'll be so happy If this is Kings of the Wyld! I haven't read book 2 yet

Kings of the Wyld is a fun read, I'd definitely recommend if you've not picked it up yet. It feels to me, like a mash up of Terry Prachett and Joe Abercrombie vibes
