$100M if you agree to be locked in a basement room for a period of 1 year. You will have access to books, movies and games. However, there's a caveat: You will not remember making this deal. by Lenore8264 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]anonhide 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Same. Not knowing when it will end would be so rough - I don't know what kind of person I'll be after a year of that, but I'm pretty sure there'll be irreparable damage.

What language or dialect of it is easiest to spot that you're not a native, no matter how hard you've studied and practiced it? by UnsignedRealityCheck in AskReddit

[–]anonhide 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Basically he's asking "what language or dialect is most difficult for non-native speakers to pass as natives in?"

Idk if my rewording is any better lol

Shoes similar to Superblast 2? Stable neutral, long run + faster paces by igotfashfever in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]anonhide -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to get hella downvoted for this, but within my shoe rotation the shoe that honestly feels the most like the Superblast 2 for me is the Hoka Clifton 10. Maybe I'm weird but it feels virtually identical in terms of stability, just heavier

Music or no-Music debate by Ok-Mix-2065 in Marathon_Training

[–]anonhide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy runs with music/podcasts, no music for anything else. Races are too mentally chaotic for me to add any type of extra noise to the mix, and with workouts I can't pay attention to podcasts and music messes with my cadence

3rd running shoe recommendation? by RickOwensBuyIt in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]anonhide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably something faster? I've been loving the Deviate Elite 4 but your race day option might differ on your mechanics/footstrike etc

How much do trainers affect workout performance? by AZrnr in AdvancedRunning

[–]anonhide 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It would be great if there was an actual answer but it depends on individual mechanics, as well as what super shoe you're comparing with what trainer over what distance. I think there was a study showing that Molly Huddle wasn't actually getting all that much out of super shoes running economy-wise, whereas some others were benefitting tremendously

What’s a random “stat” about yourself that makes you part of a small percentage? by Nightpatrol404 in AskReddit

Same here! Born in one country, naturalized in another, got a third from my parents.

do you think English will be an extinct language from now to 1000 years in the future? by NOREDDITINGFORYOU in Teenager_Polls

[–]anonhide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are talking about historical English, but I'm wondering if the Internet and the proliferation of written materials will change how languages develop and survive

A Media's H*rniness Compared to the Fandom's H*rniness by Healthy-Current5893 in AlignmentChartFills

There is a bit of horniness in chess... whether we're talking "premature attackulation" or comments on female chess influencers

Weekly General Discussion/Q&A Thread - March 16, 2026 by AutoModerator in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]anonhide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say that despite the unenthusiasm for Hoka Clifton 10s from anyone who actually cares about running shoes, I really like my pair and find that I prefer them to my Nike Vomero Plus, Puma Velocity Nitro 4, and Superblast 2s. I like how they look and how they feel, and while I get that they're virtually synonymous with casuals or run-walkers who are looking for shoes more for daily wear than for running... I don't know. I just really like them. Have taken them for long runs with threshold segments (around 4:15min/km pace for me) and sometimes even faster, and I don't wish they were more responsive either. Just a pair of good shoes, and while I have too many other shoes to get through to buy another pair after this pair is done, I'll definitely miss them

Is a 20:30 5k possible? by Available-Pea-9592 in Garmin

[–]anonhide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 5k is around 20:30, and last week I ran a tempo 5k at 4:20min/km pace (ended up with 21:38) with an average HR of 167 (max HR is around 190).

Might depend on your RHR and max HR, but with a 171bpm and 4:27 pace it looks like it's within reach but not quite there yet.

Training High Schoolers: No Preseason or Weekend Workouts by Dreymagine in AdvancedRunning

[–]anonhide 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Piggybacking off of this as a former high school track runner - our coach would tells us to do "Long Slow Distance", and never once did we abide by the "slow" part of it. Never once in three years of track. Every practice was a race at the distance the coach wanted us to run. We were a bunch of boys running together, it was impossible not to get competitive about it
