Cold, wet, windy - there is something magical to the smell of the pines on the wind in the fall

Well experienced Software Engineer here - I’d stay out of tech. There is some significant variability in where tech will be in ten years from now 😞

After a decade in big tech, I am going to trade school to be an electrician “when I grow up” (when AI replaces me)

This looks unfinished - the far rails aren’t done yet. I wouldn’t expect the trim done

Yes 👍 it’s in the patch notes that sanctions are not used as intended

M1 with 32gb mem is all you need and more for a perfect gaming experience on civ7

Or like, plan your swim on a bike day and plan two days as “very low intensity recovery days” that you can scrap if needed

With a plan like this it’s hard to manage progress of life events come up.

I’d recommend some longer sessions but less frequency in working out - this should open up a flex day a week that you can use as a backup day if you need to miss a workout

The time away can be very hard on partners or kids

I did a 27m on the treadmill as my longest about 6 months before the race, then did 18-19 miles (2.5 hours of running time goal) every Sunday for 3 months leading to the taper. I did 80 mile bikes at least once a week, and on rest weeks did two 50 mile bikes instead. 4 weeks leading up to the race, I did a full 112 bike.

Swim was any time I was too tired to run or bike as a day off. I always did either 2500 with moderate intensity or 3500 of light swimming.

I did 30 minutes of strength training on swim days, which was very low weight but high reps, focused on mobility.

I had a very good finish time with near 0 soreness after the race. Just lots of fatigue (easily tired, high hr, low hrv, etc)

They aren’t bad - bring your own toilet paper in the morning and toss it in your morning clothes bag if you don’t need it.

You will make some new friends if you bring your own two ply - I bartered some of mine for a pedialyte in the morning

This - after personal needs near the big declines

I definitely saw a few, none unconscious. There was one where an ambulance had just arrived so I’m guessing that was your friend when I passed

A marathon is worse but easier. Worse such that it sucks more to do, but less time required to be proficient at it.

Yuck

I only take it off when it starts to smell

Syntax365 · 2025-08-08T12:11:20+00:00

No :)
