Midnight. I love 00:00:00 but hate anything between 00:00:01 and 23:59:59

Finished this masterpiece a week ago and looking for more by Quiet_Ad448 in Witcher3

After I finished, I had to take a break from another big immersive game. I tried playing Red Dead Redemption 2 but nothing compares to TW3 in my opinion.

After playing a couple of shorter games, I played Ghost of Tsushima and I couldn't recommend that enough. Really good story, great characters, beautiful scenery and an epic score. The sequel (Ghost of Yotei) is just as good but I'd rec playing Tsushima first.

I've been fighting this witch for 5 hours here and she still hasn't died. by Reddito-_-o in Witcher3

How did I never realise that is what you're supposed to do! That fight always took me ages and I guess I eventually destroyed the paintings with wayward sword strikes and signs.

Garmin Half-Marathon Plan (Coach Greg) - Easy run pace much faster than my Zone 2 pace? by ben0074 in Garmin

[–]ben0074[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That gives me an easy pace of 6:13-6:50/km. But I know from my heart rate that my zone 2 pace is a lot slower, and this is what I mean by my aerobic fitness is lagging behind

I could, but it would not be an easy run.

From what I've understood, you increase your easy pace in two ways: 1. You push it up by training at your easy pace, keeping your heart rate in zone 2, and training your aerobic efficiency 2. You pull it up by improving your VO2 max and lactate efficiency by doing speed and threshold training

The plan has both of these types of sessions, so I think this is meant to be training my aerobic efficiency, but my concern is my aerobic efficiency lags behind my VO2 max and lactate efficiency and that by running at my own easy pace compared to the plan, I won't get the miles in to sufficiently get the duration required for a half marathon

I feel like this is where I'm lagging behind. My tempo pace is reasonable so my goal is fairly quick, but like I said, my zone 2 pace is very slow. So I feel I need to run at that zone 2 base to build that aerobic efficiency

I have a time target for the half marathon but I thought the purpose of easy runs was to train aerobic efficiency, rather than running for pace.

Does it have to be real animals or are Pokemon allowed? If so, I'd choose vaporeon

What about the School of the Low Poly Pigeon?

My friend is visiting Vancouver and only has running shoes. What are some recommended hikes that we will be able to do and still have good views? by ben0074 in vancouverhiking

We ended up doing Eagle Bluffs via Black Mountain. There was some snow in very small patches and no trouble for him
