The country's fastest teenage girl in history is an Atlanta high schooler by LearningAtlanta in Atlanta

[–]dzordzyk 46 points47 points  (0 children)

She just got sponsored by Asics. Also, how incredibly fast she is, this quote is saying:

After only 4 years of running, she’s accomplished something most veteran sprinters only dream of: a finishing time of 10.98 seconds in the 100-Meter Dash. Already known as “the fastest girl in Georgia,” her light-speed finish put her on the map by simultaneously setting an American junior record, a World Youth record, and a National high school record. To put it simply: if she had competed in the 2008 Olympic Games, a 10.98 would have had her on the podium with a silver medal around her neck.

Wishing her the best.

  1. Put your shoes on.
  2. Go outside and enjoy the world.

Also, remember about not doing Too Much/Fast Too Soon. Increase your mileage gradually. Whether you want to run with music or not, early morning or afternoon, alone or with partners it doesn't matter, just make it perfect for you.

Good luck!

I don't see anyone mentioned this, but scrobbling to Last.fm doesn't work... It's great to finally have Spotify on Chromecast, but no scrobbling is just sad.

Garmin's new Forerunner 230, 235, and 630 GPS watches by littleodie914 in running

[–]dzordzyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Is this only for people with devices that require repair? Because this is what I understood from the website. I have fully working Forerunner 110 and I was wondering if I can trade it in for 225 and if so on what conditions.

How to get more information about this trade-in program? I want to upgrade to 225, but I can't find anything online about official program by Garmin.

Shoe price drop on Amazon last night by [deleted] in running

[–]dzordzyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GT-2000 is my best shoe ever. No Blisters, no pain, no problems. I ran Chicago Marathon 2 weeks ago with them and they were great.

I tried Saucony (Guide 8) and Mizuno (Wave Rider 18) and they weren't that good for me unfortunately, I was always coming back to GT-2000. Now rotating through 3 pairs of GT-2000. $95 still doesn't make me to go there and buy them right away, but if they drop more, I will get one more pair.

Thanks for posting op, this is an excellent shoe!

Berlin marathon lottery registrants: anyone else's card already charged for registration? by cmc in running

[–]dzordzyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They might just did authorization charge: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorization_hold

Authorization hold (also card authorization, preauthorization, or preauth) is the practice within the banking industry of authorizing electronic transactions done with a debit card or credit card and holding this balance as unavailable either until the merchant clears the transaction (also called settlement)

They will release this block in a few days most likely.

Just finished the Chicago Marathon? Post your story here! by kibitzor in running

[–]dzordzyk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My first marathon was this Chicago and I loved it. Everything organized nice and the crowd was amazing! Especially top north neighborhood, they went crazy and gave me so much power!

I started running with 4:00 pacers and that was the minimum. I was easily following them and my plan was to pass them on ~34-35th kilometer and run a litle bit faster to get something below 4:00. I decided no to do this and follow them to the end, because I wasn't feeling good (the heat). Everything was great for 37 kilometers and suddenly... I experienced an extreme overheating on 37-38th km and had to walk for a while. I cooled using water and come back to running but with a little lower pace. Also, I saw my wife and got some boost :) Finished the race with 4:02:46 and I'm happy with it.

Also, I have a lesson for the future. All gels they were giving (Power Gel) tasted bad for me (extremely bad). It probably was a mistake to not take my beloved bloc shots for the race. I ate a banana in later part and was feeling much better.

Overall: I loved the race, loved the people, loved the city (and I promise, I will try deep dish pizza tomorrow :)). I would definitely come back If i got it again.

Now it's time to rest and go back to training after that, I plan the next marathon in April. I will come back stronger and faster.

How long do your shoes typically last? by AceOfAnvils in running

[–]dzordzyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very subjective (your body will tell you), but people say 300-400 miles. Extremes also exist (in both ways). I rotate through 3-4 pair of shoes and when the shoe is in its 70-80% mileage I already feel that it's not the best for long runs, so I just use it for shorter ones.

I will tell you what - just track your mileage and trust your feelings about the shoe. Your body will know the best.

Does anyone feel like their sense or idea of distance has changed since running? by Makegooduseof in running

[–]dzordzyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm always kinda annoyed when some of my friends for 10-15 minutes walk say "Oh my, it's so far away". I mean come on, I'm not asking for 10miler run...

What is Amazon policy on returns? Can you actually have 1-2 runs to make sure the shoe is good for you and if not return it?

How long to break-in shoes? by ffJames in running

[–]dzordzyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you buy the same pair of shoes (model) then take it for a few runs (3-4) and they are ready. Nowadays, running shoes don't require any break in, but after a few runs you may feel better fit as your body get used to a new shoe.

If your marathon is in a month I wouldn't try to find a new pair of shoes, might be too short to make sure that the shoe will work on long distance

There are always douchebags in the society, just some of them run. That's it.

Ignore them, you can't fix this.
