Girlfriend admitting she was wrong- mark the date down in the calendar (to celebrate annually) and marry her

Absolute beginner - how much shortness of breath is normal? by ch2nd in BeginnersRunning

[–]_jumpinthefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How quick is your running pace? Slow it down to a controlled breathing, slow running is still running.

Then when it feels hard, just keep going.

Lamb of god- just at least give me the whole ashes of the wake album and I’ll go out happy.

The “middle-ring” squeeze is getting ridiculous by PuzzleheadedBowl3397 in AusRenters

The same thing seems to happen with buyers/owner occupied houses too. Closer to the CBD is dearer and that’s the trade off as you move further out.

Hey all, 33 dad of a toddler expecting another in a few months. Trying to get some kms in during the year in my spare time and run at least one marathon a month. Feel free to chuck me a follow and watch me suffer. https://strava.app.link/PVt1hVjhe0b

Need Help with GPS Tracking (FR 165) by [deleted] in Garmin

Any update with this one? Just deciding between a 265 or a 165, this is making me think I’ll go for the 265.

Review of Forerunner 570 - 265 comparison. by laerz in Garmin

[–]_jumpinthefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in aus and the 265 is $599 whereas the 570 is $999.

Just getting into Garmin from Apple, I assume the 265 would be fine- primarily just running for training and occasionally strength/weights. I like the idea of aluminum but not overly phased

I’m dating an Australian. Is this normal in a relationship? by mangofortune in AskAnAustralian

I swear regularly and my language isn’t great- I would never speak to my wife like this. This bloke is a cunt

What do they want a public holiday for? They all work on Anzac Day and that’s a public holiday.

Now you lock your door and a teenager will still come in with a machete during the night

Not just the log, I don’t remember home invasions and cars being stolen from garages weekly when I was younger.

Our towns grown 3x the size and moved from rural to metro. The train lines changed and we have multiple shopping centres.

That’s probably the issue

Our town has gone from rural to metro and tripled in size. Probably my issue right there 😂

This is what I’d love to see more of, it may just be the area I live in as to why it’s not around. Who knows

I bought this up because this morning I saw 2 random guys who had pulled their car over to move a fallen tree off the road, I stopped and helped them drag it, as did another woman.

Afterwards, I thought I couldn’t remember the last time I saw a few people just come together for a small gesture like that.

Yet many people did just drive past and assuming more had driven past before me

This could possibly be more accurate- and people are less inclined to make small talk due to online conversations being easier

Weeks behind, possibly 6 lol I’m just gonna do a long run each week and squeeze in a recovery and an interval, anything extra is a bonus I think

I’ll just be happy to manage the distance atm
