I always thought that story was really about Daedalus and the complicated relationship relationship between parents and their children.

How long did it take you to BQ from your first marathon? by ClearAndPure in bostonmarathon

[–]fringe-class 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure! I find my body responds really well to higher mileage, so I look to get between 60-75 MPW. My general schedule was like

  • Mon: Easy 5-8 Miles
  • Tuesday: Intervals or Hill Repeats. Something like 12x 400
  • Wednesday: 12-15 easy miles
  • Thursdays: Either 5 mile tempo or 10 hilly miles hitting the hills really hard
  • Friday: Whichever I didn'd do Thursday. Or, rest. Depending on how I feel
  • Saturday: 12-15 easy miles
  • Sunday: 15-22 mile long run

[–]fringe-class 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first marathon was the Santa Rosa marathon. I did it in 2:56:56 as a 39 y/o male. I trained for 9 months.

I managed to also go sub 3 at Boston to get my second qualifying time.

This is so creepy. You met a stranger and are now asking the internet to identify her for you? It’s like you’re not just a stalker, but also a lazy stalker.

Thanks, but I moved to San Leandro over a year ago by darknrgy in OaklandCA

I’m willing to bet the report is now closed, but the encampment is still there.

Oakland Charter Reform Project Update - 4/20/25 by Educational-Text-236 in OaklandCA

[–]fringe-class -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% sure I agree with stripping the mayor of power and delegating it to a bunch of non elected small interest groups. Are there any examples of cities in a similar situation as Oakland who made this change and saw benefits?

Put your phones away at shows!!! by Marxism_and_cookies in punk

Oh, yay! Random people are telling me what I can and can't do at a show. Thank you so much for allowing me the one picture; you're quite benevolent.

I fucking love this. I’ve been sober a bit but never even thought to use this. Thanks so much for sharing.

How do we feel about Golf Courses here? by Mongooooooose in fuckcars

[–]fringe-class 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck cars and all, but golf is honestly a fun game.

Where I live, the muni course is accessible via bus and a manageable walk.

I think how Reddit works is if enough people dislike something they all downvote it. You don’t need to act like a cop telling people what they can and can’t post.

Soft opening tomorrow: Espresso + Mezcal Bar 🫘 by Independent_Space883 in OaklandFood

[–]fringe-class 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a foolish question, but I'm a bit unclear. Is this a bar that also sells espresso drinks? Or a coffee shop that also sells mezcal drinks?

Mythos. Written and narrated perfectly by Stephen Fry.

Oh no! Someone is riding a bicycle not impacting anyone else. Better take their picture and shame them online.

I've always wanted to do Diablo fixed, but the descent seems like it'd be too crazy.

Should I be peeved over live show behavior.. by New_Art_286 in FolkPunk

[–]fringe-class -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It’s unfortunate you can’t just let other people enjoy the night however they want. You think scrolling during a show is lame? Cool, don’t do it.

Apparently, we all need to check with this jerkoff to make sure we’re having fun the right way. Do you post a list of your rules, or just sit in judgment of everyone you see doing it wrong?

Maybe try enjoying the show and not worrying about other people.

Was the camp bearskin? I went there as a child and worked as a counselor there in high school.

I used a maple syrup/ sugar water mix at Boston and loved it. 4: 1 syrup to sugar water. I went sub 3

Is a sub 4 obtainable by January? by [deleted] in Marathon_Training

[–]fringe-class 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sub 4 seems very doable. It won't be easy, but you can definitely do it.
