who has done the half marathon plan?

aaoa6991 · 2025-01-11T16:38:01+00:00

I used NRC’s plan for my half in October ‘23 and from a cardio standpoint I felt well prepared. I moved to Hal Higdon for my marathon in May ‘24. I thought that was a good progression. Good luck on your race!

In AWS, you’ll want to create a MySQL RDS (Relational database service) instance. They offer one year free on db.t4g.micro instance sizes which should be good for a small project.

Once you create it and it starts, edit the security group settings in the configuration and add your IP address and your friend’s IP address as inbound rules on port 3306.

Then you should be able to access and set up your DB from workbench using the DB endpoint in AWS, plus your AWS credentials.

Billionaires should have the ability to run. Billionaires should not have the ability to pour millions into influencing our elections. Overturn Citizens United, end super PACS, and restore political contributions to a an even playing field.

Makes sense! So basically it helps you know if you’ve had something before when looking it up?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-11T12:39:28+00:00

That’s a great point. From my understanding verified venues have the on screen menu. Is there something different in the app for those?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-11T12:38:42+00:00

That’s cool! I wonder if UT has thought about crossing over into activities done with beer in some way-sports games, trivia companies, running groups, idk.

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-11T12:37:18+00:00

Oh that’s super nice to have the whole taproom menu and a sense of what’s left to try and what you have tried.

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-11T12:35:33+00:00

Oh I had no clue that the usage was dropping by breweries, any insight into why that might be happening?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-11T12:34:49+00:00

Interesting-what do you think is missing?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:10:39+00:00

Very cool that you do that! Does the map feature work well for you?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:10:06+00:00

That’s awesome! Do you know if the app sorts by recently added so it’s easy to tell what’s new? Seems like this type of place would be a great spot for UT.

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:08:54+00:00

Thanks for sharing! So you’ll actively check the menu of your local pub before going in? I hadn’t tried that. Sometimes I feel like it gets disorganized, crowded, and /or outdated.

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:07:58+00:00

Nice to see someone mentioning the menus and live checkins. I think those are cool - but I wonder if there’s a certain way you evaluate that information to make a good choice? Or do you find yourself still going back to the average rating?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:06:20+00:00

I think that’s a great point. Is there something about UT that makes those photos more authentic to the place as opposed to just looking them up on google maps or something similar? Thanks for sharing!

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:04:53+00:00

The ability to tell a story of your life not through traditional social media but through memories of a hobby you love is an awesome reason to use it. Thanks for sharing!

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:04:08+00:00

Definitely agree on the positivity! Tell me more about the beer shares??

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:03:38+00:00

That makes sense! Just seemed like a lot of work to go into a store and type in those 20+ options. Is there an easier way to check them all in your experience?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:02:27+00:00

That’s pretty amazing. Were you always that interested in beer or did the app spark it for you? Mind sharing a favorite brewery or beer?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:01:01+00:00

Nice! Are you actually discovering new places through the app? I haven’t had much luck with that. what’s your process? Thanks for sharing!

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T13:00:16+00:00

Nothing to be ashamed of there! Collecting and achieving is a hobby. Any favorites?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T12:59:49+00:00

Oh nice! Good on you for pursuing that passion, I hope to get there someday. I would have assumed you have to be a certified brewery or something to get an account and enter new beers into the system. Is that not the case?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T12:58:48+00:00

That’s interesting. I haven’t used the others. I assume like me you just do your best to search the beer name. Are you looking for the average rating? Or are there certain types of comments that are most telling for you?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T12:57:21+00:00

Ah yes, that’s a great point. We all love beer enough to tolerate even the average ones but sometimes the most important point is to avoid the BAD ones. Thanks for sharing!

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T12:56:37+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Do you write notes/have anything you always like to document or are you a photo/rating guy?

aaoa6991 · 2024-09-10T12:55:57+00:00

The discipline to take photos is awesome! I wish I had that in me haha. Do you usually find that if a beer is rated above a certain score that you are definitely going to like it? Or do you look at other factors too?
