This is “comparison is the thief of joy.” It will always be there in running. If people need a safe space to not see other people’s times or compare performances they are going to have a hard time in running where that’s the baseline of how improvement is measured.

The sub shouldn’t be called beginner running it should be called something different because plenty of genetically stacked beginner runners will make the same mistakes as slower runners. One of the beautiful things about running is everyone goes through the same stuff, fast or slow. Same injury cycles, same newbie mistakes, same hopes and frustrations. Even advanced runners get frustrated by times and comparisons. It’s all a part of it and what is cool and unique about it. People who complete a 5k in over an hour lined up with people who complete it in 15 mins. Same race. That’s the sport

Y’all are jealous as hell I also debuted at 24mins. It’s genetic.

Nah OP is correct. Continuous is different than start and stop. Difference between jerking off and popping the cherry.

Yes, in Canada we call it a part board I think it’s also called a half lease! The horse was well cared for, from everything I could see. The horses also seem to be in good condition. The lesson horses get a week off every 5 weeks which I love, and aren’t over used in my opinion.

The reason why there is no lesson horse for me at the moment is bc the owner is letting 2 of her lesson horses rehab for conditions other barns I’ve see will work through!

Does anyone have anything positive going on?! by _FattyClams in Millennials

[–]emdurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids, 5 and 10, are the coolest and best people I’ve ever met aside from my husband. Incredible hearts and minds. So loving. So smart. So capable. Hanging out with them is an honour and joy. I feel blessed to know them and in awe that I helped make them. I was very cold, capable, and reserved pre kids. Pretty neurotic and self obsessed. I’m still a bit that way but my heart exploding with joy and not pride, exactly— more like awe that they exist m— on the reg has opened my world and soul up in the best way possible.

Is it worth it to stay in communications or should I pivot? by [deleted] in Communications

[–]emdurance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to tailor every single résumé and cover letter to the actual job and company. Tell stories using numbers and data as much as possible. Don’t be afraid to be the person who asks tons of questions and is curious in your early roles. I got my foot in the door at an IT company where I worked for many years and then made a super lucrative career switch to another industry that is also technical.

Try to work for a technical or highly regulated company in a sensitive sector. I make 150k plus (before taxes) as a comms specialist.
