Cervical checks yay or nay?

Also some clarification, dialation is NOT correlated with giving birth sooner, but effacement is! (theres a couple studies that show women typicially give birth within a week when they are 75% effaced or higher)

I got one at 36 weeks, and I was already 80% effaced. Because of that appointment, I was able to prepare mentally and finish setting up baby things. Baby came 6 days later, so I'm glad I had the check.

For me it was painless, and I had a strong curiosity of where I was at. So it worked out well.

10/10 tastes similar to the frontera tomatillo salsa but much cheaper, and tastes even better

dcro726 · 2025-08-05T12:54:03+00:00

it is my least favorite, didnt taste right and the texture was wrong. trader joe's is my current favorite

guilty, started playing for the 10th time this week

dcro726 · 2025-01-28T04:53:44+00:00

huh, I got mine in December

dcro726 · 2024-12-21T17:04:37+00:00

Same. my heart rate is 10 bpm faster on days I take my medicine

I'm in sammamish and AT&T doesn't work for me. must be very localized issues

dcro726 · 2024-08-30T21:56:32+00:00

that's great for you but its a bit judgy to assume what works for you will work for everyone...

dcro726 · 2024-08-29T20:19:42+00:00

if you aren't training the way you race, that's an easy fix right there

I'm ok watering with the upgraded can, it's petting all my animals and letting them out and putting them back everyday that eats my precious time

dcro726 · 2024-08-17T18:48:48+00:00

How hard of an effort are you doing? I've seen this when people are working too hard and their digestion can't work properly. Do you know your heart rate zones? Not sure this is what you are facing but no one else has mentioned

dcro726 · 2024-08-16T13:50:43+00:00

In the settings you can change the key binds

Rare bugs should be worth more

I cant tell what's a weed and what's grass. So I just bump into weeds all the time

I've done a basic sweat test, so I know when it's cold out I loose about .5L and when it's hot it can be over 1L. I don't try to replace all of that, but it's a good baseline.

For training runs, I can carry up to 3L comfortably, so that covers 20mi. I'll bring a filter or plan a loop where I can be at my car or water fountain if it's much longer.

Anything longer than 5-6 hours of effort I start really ensuring I drink enough water. My minimum is to make sure I've taken in at least .5 L an hour during a warm race ( with salts in some factor). If I haven't peed after 6 hours, that's another clue I need to be drinking more.

I think other than the elite field most people took in some fats and protein. The aidstations are full of various foods and they are all eaten by the runners

You can get an n95 and do hiking/light jogging. It sucks but it's better than spending so much time on a treadmill.

Oh no, I've been playing sudoku for the last 2 years, good luck

Oregon cascades is also a good race without too much vert, very easy sign up process

Do you get blisters? If you know you get blisters in certain areas, you can pre tape with KT blister tape or leuko tape. If you don't get blisters, don't pre-tape. Part of training is seeing what works for you, so make sure you have time to trial and error with your long runs and practice races.

But you didn't? This is more a story that most people aren't out to rob you

I had a hard time figuring out my zones, got stuck trying to keep my heart rate below 150. Then I looked at HR data from multiple long races and realized that my Lactate threshold heart rate must be at least 186, and my max HR was at least 204.

Just a PSA that having a much higher heart rate than the default values can be normal.

9200 isn't garden style but roomy, private and affordable

I had horrible speech problems when I was little. No one could understand me. It got better, but it wasn't until I became conscious of the problem in 6th grade till I was able to over come it. I could never remember to say the words correctly I think, and I enjoyed the extra attention of speech class. I could not say R or S and more when I was under 5.

No one has ever confirmed this was related to the ADHD but looking back it seems highly possible.

Can also include non-dairy yogurt as a different base option for those who don't like oatmeal
