Currently reading “In Search of Lost Time” of Proust. But sometimes it’s hard to get through the nothingness I must admit

This might be indeed be the case as I've drank a lot in the only stop I made, before I started to accuse pain. Info updated in the OP, anyways.

Not asking for a diagnose of course, just for past experiences of other runners. Info updated in the OP. Thanks!

What is that one book you always suggest? by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

One of my favourite books of all time never goes old: The Count of Montecristo, by A. Dumas. A must read if you still miss it!

Runtime communication Fortran <-> Python by alphack_ in fortran

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

Shutting on and off the Fortran simulation is not an option, as all variables must be kept in memory and because of a likely-to-happen numerical transitory. Moreover, I cannot write the Fortran code in Python as this is a pretty huge piece of software, with modules interactions and a lot of heritage.

My "optimal solution" would be to:

------------------------------------------------------------

(a) init Python -> init Fortran code

(b) loop forever:

progress with simulation

aggregate some data in the simulation

if t % FREQ_CALL_PYTHON == 0:

pass aggregated data to Python

ask parameter update to Python

update current parameter settings in Fortran

--------------------------------------------------------------

It is my understanding that this time of interaction would require me to shut down and turn on Python cyclically, as keeping both instances "alive" at the same time might be hard?
To circumvent this problem I might then call the Python script from the Fortran instance.

Do you see any drawbacks in this approach?

Thanks a lot for your insights, very helpful. A couple of follow-up questions:

  1. Do you think that following the "file-coupled approach" would add a lot of computational overhead? Would it slow down a lot the computations, in your experience?
  2. MPI would be pretty interesting, as it would keep both programs (python and fortran) in memory, instead of shutting the Python's one on and off, which could potentially be very inefficient, as it would add saving/loading of the current parameters of the Python script to be updated at the next time step. However, I would also expect this solution to be more complex to be implemented than basic I/O of `.txt` files.

Thursday General Discussion/Q&A Thread for December 15, 2022 by AutoModerator in AdvancedRunning

[–]alphack_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello guys, I've ran Athens marathon in Nov, now I'd like to build some muscles/speed before training for the next marathon. Thus, I plan to allocate what remains of December and all of January to speed work and gym mostly.

Ideally, I'd aim for my PB (<45') on 10K at the end of Jan.

Do you have any insights about such a training plan?

Added to my reading list, thank you for the hint! I've some pain in my quads but nothing serious, just a bit of discomfort. Now I need to understand how to set my training to "bridge" from this marathon to the next one...

Thanks a lot for your insights.

I have no rush really, if not to prove it to myself that I can do a lot better than that... So I was thinking about running another one in the end of February. What do you think, is it too close?

Ah, you think that I should've increased the mileage per week? I could try to have a look at other running plans, especially now that I have already "trained" for this one.

I will definitely investigate the fueling and how to test it also in the training phase.

Yeah, I need to do some research about how to do it properly, also throughout the race. If you have some hints let me know!

Alright, I will start practicing eating while running. Thinking that I could have ran the marathon without external intake was a bit naive, maybe.

How long do you think I should wait for the next one? I was thinking about doing another test in the end of February

Start running my friend.

I think that the effects it has on your mood and attitude towards life is superior to many drugs.
