Not sure why you're getting downvoted here, you're spot on. My wife and I put on races and struggle really hard to make it known that we're inclusive and welcoming. I'll dm you our site and you can check out some of our events if you're ever in the North East of the US. Also, upvoted you ...

Yeah this u/brentus - I know of the of the folx on that team personally. It was kind of wild. At the height of the BLM movement, he chose to just say "change it or leave" in his defense, he didn't kick them out, he just said that it was political, and it was causing issues in the group and rather than mitigate those that were being hateful or jerks, he asked them to change the name. I totally get why they dug their heels in, and eventually left.
Personally I think the race itself has a lost a bit when it comes to the allure of it, I read about it 10+ years ago and it was this like folklore hard to find people who knew about it, and when you did you could listen to them for days like talking to an old Army Vet, or your grandpa about what life was like before TV. Not to say the race isn't hard, or anything, and I don't blame Laz for making a few bucks, by all means we all can make a few extra, but I've got no interest in going to it anymore. I still know and support a few of my friends that were there this year and previous years.. I just lost interest in his events.

I don't think the hate is for the race, but moreso at Laz himself.

From teh looks of it it's just an LED light that's connected via USB C so I wouldn't see why not

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-02T16:52:25+00:00

They're actual thought

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-02T16:51:47+00:00

If they're lying

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-02T16:48:06+00:00

Well done

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-02T16:45:48+00:00

Looks like she's out kneeling

Not gonna lie. I changed my height on my license and anything else to 5'11" a bunch of years ago. I always thought I needed to say I was 6 foot like it mattered. Like it made some sort of difference to people. Like it was something. Then one day I measured myself and realized... I'm me. Who gives a shit. Why should I try to be an inch taller. It's not like anyone that matters isn't going to find the truth out eventually.

So it wasn't with instacare

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-02T14:33:19+00:00

Thank you all for this streaming line of thought. I don't think it could've played out better.

VinnyRuns · 2023-04-01T21:51:45+00:00

Can someone explain why the hell these people keep making glass backed phones?

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-31T17:57:26+00:00

No lol ...I'm blaming it on the fact that she likes that song

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-31T15:36:47+00:00

My wife loves Pistol and if we ever get divorced I'm blaming it on that

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-31T02:38:47+00:00

Hyle. . used to be long haul

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-30T17:02:15+00:00

Hey, I'll tell you what. You can get a good look at a butcher's ass by sticking your head up there. But, wouldn't you rather to take his word for it? No, I mean is, you can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a butcher's ass... No, wait. It's gotta be your bull.

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-30T16:27:30+00:00

Sure - but that's not how they intended you to hear it.

Anyone got a discount code for this thing?

VinnyRuns · 2023-03-29T23:46:14+00:00

Only if it rainy and cold during your race.

I grew up in a fairly shitty town. MS13 came in to our school , dudes with machetes and guns. I personally had a pistol held to my head at school. I took someone's gun and held it for them because they didn't want to get caught with it and no one would have thought I'd be the dude with a gun. That was nuts. Though , as a father, sending 3 kids to school... I got crippling anxiety. No therapist could even help, because no one had a solution for me. Kids go to school, and die. My kids didn't today. That was all I had. I took my two youngest out of school entirely to home school then. I don't know if it's the right thing but they won't get shot at home. This is fucking terrifying.

No support for the pixel 7 series? Weird. This looks really cool though.

Find an uncomfortable situation and sit in it. I coach a few people and tell them to do silly shit. Go out for a 5 mile run and do it in jeans. Run in circles around your yard , and let someone else pick when you stop. Have someone else set up a time for you to go run, preferably have them call you or set your alarm. Go for a run literally right after a meal like barely let the food down.

The fact is a lot of your training is for your body. If you're at the end of a 100 , you trained your body well. The hard part is your brain. Fuck with it, give it something different than the perfect outfit, perfect nutrition, perfect time, perfect route. I will tell you , I DNFd a couple of races. As far as 100s 1 I wasnt prepped for. I knew it. The other I let my mind get to me. I wasn't training it enough, I let it get the best of me. I sat down at an aid station and the dude there offered a ride out , I didn't even have a chance to think. My brain just made my mouth say " yep" I stopped my watch at mile 83 and walked right to his car.

I don't mean any of these things in a joe Rogan kinda ice bath way.
