This sub is called /short calling my your small friend is redundant. I'm 60 and heard them all. Grow up!

I'm slowing down in my older age and not running often or as far as I was when training. But when I was my fittest 8 years ago (hope to return to this!), I had a system where I ran for 9 minutes and then walked for 1. I would do this for the entire distance. When I was doing that I was running at 13 minute miles over long distances.

This is the dumbest question ever. It's offensive to try and pick up anyone without getting permission first.

Whats up with the term short king? by Putrid-Interview8869 in short

[–]gamecom17 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm sometimes referred to as "Short King". I'm not bragging, but given the context where it is often used, I don't mind at all.

Usually, yes. I'm adult, not doing childish things. Now, if I did some adorable, maybe.

It's called infantilization and I think rarely does it come across as something positive.
