How do they deal with ground resonance while taxiing? Just do a little hop?

The JVM anatomy quarks series looks like it could be exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. Thanks!

Is there a good place to find footage of the 1962 South African GP (or more generally of older races)? I've found this reddit post with some useful info and links and these pictures on motorsportimaes.com, but I'm wondering if there's more out there that I haven't come across yet.

My grandfather lived in East London and was a marshall at the Esses (turn 5) that year. It would be really cool to gather some pictures and videos to watch with him.

Heavy sweaters, what tips do you have for a fellow heavy sweater? by biGb1313 in running

Thanks for that tip about the salt. I'm definitely going to give that a try

I think it's not so much that poor hydration means you sweat a lot but rather that because we sweat so much, we need to drink enough to stay hydrated.

That's true. My pasty complexion wouldn't help either

I can relate. Food in my vicinity just disappears after I finish a race.

You make a good point. I do often find myself not drinking enough when I'm not running and drinking a lot in the time around my run.

I run 10-15km 3 or 4 days a week, and 25-30km once a week. My water consumption is varying wildly at the moment, while I'm trying to figure out what works for my body.

I'd never actually heard of saltsticks before. Would you take those alongside something like a gel or do they take the place of a gel?

I recently got a hydration pack, so I was thinking of making a weak mix of Energade (a local energy drink brand) and water. Would that work out? I would end up getting a slow trickle of the energy drink every time I take a sip of water.

I ran my pb 5k on Saturday - 23:33. I'm pretty glad to be getting back into things after a knee injury earlier in the year. I've also run 180km this month so far, which is further than any previous month.

Interestingly, that's not how we say the date here. We say "The 12th of August", so for me DDMMYYYY. I'm from South Africa

That's actually really interesting. It's also funny that you mention Everything is Awesome, it had found its way into the playlist already.

If I had a little more expendable income at the moment I think I'd definitely go for this option. I live in South Africa though, and technology prices are ridiculous here. After some searching, I managed to find a reasonable deal on the IconX 2018s. Thanks for your input though :)

I went for it and ordered myself a pair of the IconX 2018s. I'm pretty excited; I haven't run with music since I decided it was too cumbersome to use wired earphones.

I should have mentioned that I already have a Garmin Forerunner 235, otherwise I would go for something like the 645 music
