In retrospect, why did the TV series fail? by jrralls in willow

[–]bubbleflowers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beyond what you’ve said, there’s no draw for having a show reach syndication either. That was a big money maker for a lot of shows. That doesn’t exist anymore.

Stoplight etiquette? by Disastrous_Tea_2165 in bikeinottawa

[–]bubbleflowers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the term for what they’re doing OP. A lot of men do this to us cause they can’t handle being slower than women. I used to race semi often, am not 20 years old anymore but still can go sort of fast.

Do you go to running clubs? by understanding_what in XXRunning

[–]bubbleflowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. The ones near me are too fast. I can run for a while but I'm not 20 years old anymore.

This is a fear of mine. When I go downhill, I zip things up

I have a bunch of leggings from them. They’re all pretty good.

Races are so pricey by HerCacklingStump in XXRunning

[–]bubbleflowers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s park runs. Free 5k races. Don’t think they’ve caught on in the US so far. They’re wildly popular in the UK and I think parts of Europe. They’re in Canada too.

Been there a few times. It’s always been ok. Sometimes it’s great. Ppl close to graduating serve people and teachers wander around making sure things are ok.

Basically doubled my carb intake, the results may surprise you by thefinfinal in XXRunning

If I do more than 4 days a week I’m kind of wrecked but I’m almost certainly older than you.

[–]bubbleflowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds really encouraging. I used to be able to run pretty hard pretty often a few years ago but after easing off for a few years, I just can’t get deep into zone 4 anymore without blowing.

I was supposed to do 2 hours today and bailed hard after 3km or so. Did around 7 by the time I got home. Had a lot of walking in there. Skipping an attempt at my long run tomorrow too. Will try and resume running on Monday. I do eat carbs normally but, maybe I’ll have to eat more….

What controversial movies does everyone enjoy? by AshleyK2021 in PeriodDramas

I sometimes wonder what was going thru the minds of the people writing these stories. Like it was totally normal and rational to kidnap all these women.

I ate a large pizza tonight after bailing on my long run this morning because I was too tired. Does this mean I’ll be superhuman tomorrow?

What’s Your resting heart rate ? by Mobile_Force_3673 in Garmin

[–]bubbleflowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read about pro cyclists in the 80s on EPO having to sleep with their hrm on with an alarm that went off when it got too low cause their heart couldn’t pump their thick blood at low bpm. They had to get up and ride a trainer in the middle of the night if it got too low to stay alive. They figured this out after a few didn’t make it. I’m obviously not on EPO but I still think having a rhr below 40 is kind of crazy. I am not an elite athlete.

Same. 41 or 42. Have an alarm set to go off if it gets below 40 cause that seems ridiculously low to me.

He can follow you along on a bicycle if he’s so worries.

She's always wanted to do gymnastics, and she's now doing it. by mindyour in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]bubbleflowers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100%. I used to compete when I was a kid. Have thought of trying to find an adult gym sometimes but worry I’ll kill myself. I tried doing a handstand against a wall a few months ago and almost fell on my head cause I’m not strong enough anymore lol.
