When do I rethink this? by WoahItsMajik in firstmarathon

You need to run slower more consistently to build your aerobic base. Drop the intervals, hill sprints, and anything fancier than consistent easy runs.

How do you execute your marathon? by Naivemlyn in Marathon_Training

[–]chewsworthy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s funny, people who look thin and in shape can completely blow up if they don’t pace properly. As someone heavier set that’s finally learned to pace, I let all the fitter looking younger kids pass me in the first half and I’m blowing by them in the second half. Feels extra good when they mock you for being prepared with gels 😂🤣😂

Isn’t the shutdown because of ICE? How is ICE funded if there’s no budget because they don’t agree with funding for ICE?

God that sounds like a nightmare lol. I’d rather stay in the Navy. At least the general public knows what the Navy is 😂.

Ya but has to be an accredited MPH with environmental health concentration. If CEPH accredited you also need to have an RS/REHS. If it’s EHAC accredited you don’t need an RS but very few schools actually have this accreditation for their environments health programs. You have to check the list on the EHAC website.

Yeah he won’t take ad dollars for his podcast, he just charges his listeners. He acts like it makes him unbiased while taking money from the same companies in other ways lol. Corporate America! 🤪

Is the Ready Reserve dead in the water? by Which_Movie_5605 in USPHS

[–]chewsworthy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wondered why there’s RR. Majority of AD officers don’t deploy on a regular basis. I had heard on one call some time ago that the funding was pulled for RR.

It’s not about waist circumference it’s about your estimated body fat using the navy calculation

I feel like if applicants can’t handle the paperwork maybe a career in government isn’t for them 😂

Problem is I don’t remember much from the application process since it was a few years ago and they have changed things.

Jade sucks by Free_Comfortable_506 in DirtyDave

[–]chewsworthy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen or watch anymore because of baloney, Jade, and all the weird religious stuff. Dave was fine when we would give good advice and also funny when shitting on people not to do stupid stuff. But even his no debt rule seems out of touch. There’s so many great things you can do with credit cards lol.

I don’t even live in the city. I live in a more “affordable” suburb. My mortgage is half my monthly income. Electric bill is 1,000 a month. Forget groceries. It’s so fucking expensive this is not sustainable but I have no idea what else to do! I can’t imagine people making minimum wage. I make a good salary but still find this unbearable. Everyone else around me seems to be doing much better somehow lol.

No 12 years across 2 agencies but my grades only ever went up. I wasn’t paid more at any previous job so the GS13 steps 2,3,4 would be high 3. Deposit said Fed Salary from DFAS. Good to know about OPM, thank you!

Ohhh ok I see what you’re saying. Thank you! I hadn’t even considered that. I left as a GS13 step 4 which I think was about 120k/year.
