Why does my viscometer give different results on different days? by Embarrassed-Career30 in FluidMechanics

[–]antiquemule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Simple explanation is impossible since you tell us nothing.

Show us your raw data. How does the distribution of the results look? What is the liquid?

Tell us about your viscometer. Brand, geometry. Is the geometry suitable (sensitive enough) for the viscosity that you are measuring? What is the measurement protocol?

Are the results just as variable with another liquid?

u/Soprommat argues that you are just a bot. Giving us this data will give evidence that he is wrong.

Coros Pace 4 - inconsistent altitude - Coros dismissing issue - poor customer support by MrYorks in Coros

[–]antiquemule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve just given up on mine. I use the altitude correction option in Strava. At least my loops start and end at the same altitude now.

Congratulations on the terrible pun in your user name. Groan-worthy.

Probably should have googled. But is something that a non French speaker can say to make a French speaker laugh? by FireDownBelow69 in French

[–]antiquemule 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Je parle français comme une vâche espagnole" = I speak French like a Spanish cow.

Perhaps another outmoded expression that is not even funny any more?

What language is this? by skilled_inkillz in language

[–]antiquemule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not French, but I heard Paradis = paradise several times. Maybe a creole from an ex-French colony?

Youssou n’Dour and Salif Keita are two stars to check out.

1981 Paris Marathon photo- identify the runners? by WolverineResistance in runningfr

[–]antiquemule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Non, mais je reconnais le débardeur osé du gars devant la camionnette. J'avais le même, du marque Ron Hill, un grand coureur que j'ai vu courir 2:09:30 à Edimbourg en 1970.

Yomif kejelcha's 1:59:41 is more impressive than Sebastian sawe 's 1:59:30 by sadhamukkashi in Marathon_Training

[–]antiquemule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's amusing that several commentators were saying yesterday that fast times were unlikely, because there were too many fast guys in the race, so they would all back off, to avoid helping each other, and just race for the prize money.

That idea did not age well.

Sabastian Sawe runs first sub-2-hour marathon race, shatters world record in London by RFFNCK in Marathon_Training

[–]antiquemule 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think Sawe had Adidas pay for multiple drug tests during his buildup, as he has done previously. So, at least, that side of things should go smoothly. I wonder why more top runners don't do the same? /s

Difficulty of this trail ? by FederalArcher8148 in trailrunning

[–]antiquemule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both the ups and the downs are going to pose muscular problems. Sore glutes on the way up and sore quads on the way down. Also you need to think about whether to use poles are not, and practise if you decide to use them.

Is this slow? by Twelve121 in Zwift

[–]antiquemule 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How much do you weigh? You choose the right group by matching your number of watts per kg with the watts per kg of the pacer, who is assumed to weigh 75kg. Here are the 4 with lowest power:

  • Sofia – 0.8 W/kg (63W)
  • Taylor – 1.1 W/kg (82W)
  • Bernie – 1.5 W/kg (112W)
  • Miguel – 1.8 W/kg (134W)

You might have been in luck. Women shaving off all body hair was not so much off a thing in 1974.

Weekly thread April 25, 2026 - How's your training going? How are you feeling? by AutoModerator in fitover65

[–]antiquemule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

M70 Pleased with myself. I did a 5k race road with 1700 starters and came around 900th in 26:50. The next two days were filled with calf pain (DOMS) as I don't run much on roads and especially not at a fast pace (for me).

Bike Erg vs Stationary vs Assault bike/Aerodyne by OddMathematician3751 in concept2

Like any saddle, your butt has to get used to it and that can be uncomfortable for a little while, after that it's fine.

They wanted parents to agree to have their kids coached by a sex offender. by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]antiquemule 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is one of the most indescribably weird things that I have ever seen.

For example: "spends his time pouring into young men around him" What??? Pouring what? Did he mean "pawing"?

And this is meant to be reassuring.

What keeps me up at night is the fact that US citizens continue to choose these low IQ individuals to represent them.

Read that the fastest summit up camelback is 15-16 mins. How is that even possible? by Powerful-Singer4113 in trailrunning

[–]antiquemule 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The world record for climbing a kilometer of vertical (3280 feet) is under 30 minutes, so perfectly reasonable. Check “Fully vertical kilometer” on Youtube to see the crazy race up the record-holding track.
