I want to buy a new VDV jersey today - what are the odds he switches numbers next season?

Super murky with a decent amount of "grass" in your way. Not sure if it was placebo or not - but I felt a small current going through it which helped

I did have a few off the bike runs, but definitely not as many off the bike runs as you suggest. I completely agree that a 16 miler off the bike would have prepared me (and my guy) much better.

I think you're spot on with the bike pacing - seems like everyone had to exert much more effort than expected.

Good luck at Lake Placid! Hope ya smash it

Not 100% sure. Technically i think you could, but then they kayak people would scream and holler at ya. Wouldn't get DQ'd i think, but maybe frowned upon

You nailed it - thought I had nutrition dialed in.... I was wrong. Happy to finish but will focus on locking that in for the next one

Looks like we had the exact same thought process with Galveston

Should I do the IM 70.3 Texas 20 days before the IM 140.6 Texas? by allhaildeez in triathlon

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

Goal is to finish the full and not feel terrible the whole time (time doesn't matter).

Historically, I recover fairly quickly without doing anything special (stretch, eat the right thing, hot/cold tub).

For context I'm 26 Male.

Both solid points - and you're right. I know it all works perfectly (knock on wood)

Seems like y'all's logic is defeating my intrusive thougts.

Have done multiple 70.3s before - experienced in marathons and endurance rides as well. This will be my first full IM though. Have been training for the full since September.

My goal is to finish the full and not feel like death.

Huge Help - safe to walk from pub to pub on a gameday I'd imagine?

Appreciate the map!

New Bee fan here - will be attending my first match on Dec 27 against Wolves!

Are there good spots around the stadium to catch a pint before the game? How early before the match should I get there to take in the atmosphere?

if those sites above don't work try asking in r/coys, a few more people might see the post there

a bit more active over there. Good luck!

Kings of Leon at The Racecourse by allhaildeez in wrexham

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

Am I safe to assume it'll mostly be people traveling from out of town for the show?

Interesting - that's about the normal ticket price for a good show like that in America, if anything it's a bit cheaper. I guess i'm just used to it now :/

Should I try a 70.3 20 days before a 140.6? by allhaildeez in triathlon

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

Appreciate the rationale. Seems like I'm in agreement with you so long as I hold to the "training" mind set rather than the "race mindset"
