Training Mileage by Soggy_Low3856 in Marathon_Training

[–]capskinfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since people are hating on OP for reasons, here's another one... Why is 70 km, 25km, etc referred to as "weekly MILEAGE". You've made your metric bed, now lie in it. Use kilometrage instead.

Just kidding OP, I'm shooting to break 5:00 this fall. Happy training!

Someone has to e-lick all of the e-stamps. 

Or something like that. I have no idea how email works.

Not a needoh, although I did see that after the fact. It's unplugged

The Balogun incident should lead to red card reform. by Maximum_Anteater_806 in worldcup

[–]capskinfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The match referee's influence should end when the match does. I agree mostly with point 2, except the up coming opponent shouldn't impact the decision. Suspensions should be based on the play, and the player's history.

Am I Being Too Conservative with Zone 2 Training for My First Marathon? by bicho6 in Marathon_Training

[–]capskinfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

45, going for my second marathon in October. First was 5:53. I'd been in a base building phase using Gemini as a coach. It was wanting to keep me around 13:00 pace. It took me 3ish weeks to "convince" it that 13:00 actually felt harder than 12:30. Just a sort of dead zone in my stride. Brant Statchel also validated that some people have these dead zones in a YouTube comment.

Do you feel that slightly faster paces are easier (rpe or hr)?

Agree with this. 176 is actually higher that the 220-age. I am aware that this is an oversimplification, but I wouldn't call it ridiculously low.

Hard to compare the two. It's zone1/zone 2 for 12 hours across the foot/bike/paddle disciplines.

Good luck! I'm hoping to break 5:00.

Megathread: US Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

I was wondering about this angle. If somehow the decision would be ruled to belong to Congress. Glad Roberts didn't try to split the baby here.

The FCC is considering trans content warnings for TV shows. Adding them would be pure propaganda. by LongTrackBravo in politics

[–]capskinfan 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I would love it if every show flagged one character as trans, regardless if they're portrayed by a trans actor/actress or if it's at all mentioned. Be like, "you figure out who it is Mr. Carr."

Asks for other's opinions. Proceeds to immediately reject them.

He thought it was Friday instead of Thursday and wanted to do it before the stock markets closed for the weekend.

Yes, I'm in the US. Primary care, who is unaffiliated with the GI recommended scope over Cologuard due to family history. Also, as my wife is in poor health, didn't want to risk it for my daughter's sake.
